Day two of the NFL draft began in a rather predictable fashion. With several top players still on the board to begin the round including Byron Murphy, Nasir Adderley, AJ Brown, Juan Thornhill, and Deebo Samuel, the odds were good that one of them would fall into our laps at pick 36. And sure enough one did. Lynch and Shanahan picked WR Deebo Samuel who had long been discussed here at NIners Nation as a possibility in the 2nd round.
I for one was happy with the pick. While DB was an obvious need as well, it was clear based on last years results that Shanahan was looking to improve on the WR corps, and Samuel definitely met that need.
