The San Francisco 49ers were always going to take a wide receiver. The team hosted 14 players at the position. What was a surprise was the team taking two receivers. Here are some winners and losers after Day 2 of the draft.
It’s pretty clear that Kyle Shanahan was not happy with the production at receiver last year. You can isolate the play from the quarterback. Simply put, it wasn’t good enough. The addition of Deebo Samuel and Jalen Hurd give the 49ers much needed versatility and a shot of athleticism at the wide receiver position.
