CJ's comment, "How was he even on their radar?" tells you he/Texans were hoping that they would have the chance to draft him and that we would get through under the radar. You gotta give some big UPS!!!! to the niners scouting department, for putting Pearsall on their radar.
@TommyQim-jk1dl Yeah but I'm sure they would of picked him in the 2nd round before the niners. What needs did the niners need besides DB? They lost McCloud and he was the return man. They addressed the OL and a DB. They even signed DB in the offseason. They can't bet on Aiyuk not getting signed. Usually Kyle does a great job of picking out WR for his system.
Saying he wasn't on mock drafts is the most BS reason for not liking it. Mock drafts are all shit all of them they mean nothing and nobody ever picks it right. Basing anything on that is straight up stupidity.
Do you not understand how average fans operate? You think normal fans are breaking down their own draft prospects? The entire point is it didn't match perceived value but glad to see the point went over you head.
@@TheSFNiners I wasn't meaning to reply to you thought I was someone else. Perceived value is meaningless to base anything on. Any type of fan you only have access to what gets reported by people who are not in the building making decisions. I think you do a wonderful job overall and actually come to your stuff first to hear from. But I understand perceived values I just know in the business world if your data is coming from people who don't make the decisions it's worthless data. But fans are going to fan and understanding mock drafts are for fun and not reality would be good for many fans to learn. All it takes is 1 other team saying I think I want this guy for him to be gone. I highly doubt that Niners didn't entertain moving up and down probably didn't like either option then probably said well we have these couple guys we like who do we take. There is also understanding that the team might already be working on a trade up or a trade like how we got Williams when Staley retired and everyone flipped out we didn't take a OT. We none of us have the full picture that's fans and reporters and players. Lynch and Shanny are the only ones who actually know. That's true for almost every team. Owners im sure also know.
Chill out @TheSFNiners he wasn't directing his comment towards you. He's absolutely right on his assessment. A bunch of "fans" started crying about this pick and sounded real unfaithful.
Hahaha ya do your opinion is too homer dude. He wasn’t good the 4 years he was in college till he was 24 and way older than everyone haha he’s a bust fuckin Dante pettis jr
@@mt.2237 , Why was he so upset then? Shouldn’t he have just been happy for the kid? No man. He wanted him. Say what you want. The reaction says it all.
Part of decision had to be 49ers watching so many WRs going off the board and realizing Pearsall wouldn't be there at 63. There's probably a larger pool of offensive line players they think can drop to 63.
I think also the quality of tackles left at 31 was not worth a first round pick. They could've moved back, but I'm definitely fine with them drafting him here if they like him a lot
Didn’t need a wr at all he won’t see the field as a wr and he’s just not going to be that good watch the tape he has nothing that amazes you one handed catches are made 1 percent of the time hahah laughable pick
Have to think about it this way. When Deebo, and then BA went down last year. We had Jennings to rely on. We needed all the other receivers to step up. On top of that we NEED someone for punt return. Especially when Deebo had to got back there and take the punts. This is a great pick. I'm excited for this young man!!
Stroud wasn't trying to justify anything. He specifically said, "we probably weren't going to draft a wide receiver anyway". He was hoping the Texans would draft one, even though they just got Diggs.
As a niner fan of over 40yrs you understand that nobody making a mock draft or grading these players works in an nfl front office or as an nfl scout. Roll with the pick there’s a method to the madness you’ll understand later and the position you thought the team needed so bad clearly isn’t that bad, never draft for need!
Most draft picks dont work out. People guessing from their couches is just as effective as the NFL execs getting paid millions to pick them. Its a dice roll every time.
Trust me Ricky is going to be a problem. White boy with 42" vert and the fastest shuttle drill, plus one handed snags with toughness. 17 reps for our boy on the bench press. He's NASTY
As a fan, the disappointment is not about the player picked. It's the realization that the WR drama is going to continue, and internally they may not have figured out the Deboo, BA situation
Ya that’s not a good reason to pick someone that is just so lame and Kyle is a choke artist of a coach who needs to be fired for his negligence. Pettis gray Hurd now this bust haha pearsall is not good
Damn, we got a whole arsenal of weapons now. Especially after adding the fastest RB in draft at 223 lbs and the Zona receiver with 4.38 speed and return abilities. Helps that we added a Poly boy that can play every position on the Oline
Im assuming they were probably looking at the team needs and the team probably felt that of the remaining prospects left there are no projected 1st rounders left on the board that we could use efficiently. So they go ahead and look at the best available 1st round projected prospects and decide to pick up a wr that they know can block and has efficient catching abilities. And we all know if you can’t/won’t block on the niners you ain’t playing
Pearsall was a great pick at #31. The three truly elite OTs were already off the board so drafting talent was the right move because all of the other tackles are development projects not warranting even a high second round pick
He’s not a great pick and we needed center help too and that Oregon center was available who is a better pick and made more sense then fuckin Ricky bust pearsall watch his tape he’s a 24 year old grown man beating kids basically before that he was NOT GOOD Kyle fell in love with one years worth of tape instead of the actual body of work which is why you could have drafted him in the 3rd rd. Kyles garbage and lynch is garbage not to mention just both losers
We had a bigger need in the secondary and cooper Dejean could plug anywhere and return kicks he did it for iowa. I will continue to say it we badly missed on that pick i love the rest of the draft
If you didn't watch any of that show the funniest thing about it was how much Stroud did not get on with Parsons. I was only flicking in and out as I was watching 49er coverage but I did see this clip live, was the 2nd best bit of the show.
The most noticeable thing to me was that Stroud didn't appear to like Diggs. Having a little experience of C.J., I'm very concerned that Diggs may have been a bad idea. I can't see a connection developing there, and C.J. has created great connection and chemistry with this team. Stroud is a good man and Diggs is an ass. How is this going to work? I'm wishing now they'd stayed at 23 and taken Pearsall.
real reaction by CJ a up-coming QB in this league! Draft rankings are a crap shoot. Take your shot 49ers ! At least they have a plan and a system of "players" they are evaluating and researching to add to the talent on the team.
Florida players get it done folks !!!! Cooper Cupp was laughed at people and he turned out great. Not Florida but you need to see how they play in the pros. If CJ is pissed then you know. Ricky is older and played more snaps so that will help. Kyle will dial it up.
Steve Smiths video is telling as well. I think that dude knows receivers. Bottom line they added a good player. This may not be your pick, but I don't think you can call it a miss.
I like the pick. Debo, ayuik, and slick Rick, McCaffrey and juwaan will be unstoppable offense. Now we need a better secondary and we will be to the Superbowl and finally take it this time. Let's go bang bang niner gang
3rd WR option against KC or Balt. That's my issue. If you release Aiyuk, do you improve or get worse right now(SF's championship window with this team is closing and no one seems to care)? If you release Deebo, is he a number 2 WR against KC and Balt.? If Jennings improved to a 1 or 2 level, then what?! Is Pearsall the 3rd receiver then?! Though it's not a good thing with your friends in general behavior, keeping up with the Joneses is great for football! That's how the 49ers won their last ring in 94; they were real with themselves in what kind of team Dallas was as 2 time defending champions and built a team that had a shaht of overcoming them in addition to who they already had in place. Did SF improve at WR OR WHO I DID NOT MENTION OL?! I think the approach should have been to bolster the OL first; then, choose the best WR available after that. If Pearsall was available great, but, if not, trade up, take the best WR available in the next spot, or that's a part of the draft! If you do not have a solid OL in place, then neither the QB play, RB play, WR play, or TE will matter against KC or Balt...
Ricky is the best receiver I’ve seen at Florida since Percy harvin. Tony was always hurt, pitts is a te , van Jefferson was good but Ricky my god he is going to have a long career and make a lot of money !! He is a real 1 !!!
I didnt need Strouds reassurance but cool to heear. I've Been liking the slick Ricky pick, he's not only polished and super clean but he out performed athletically with measurables and topped the class.
Best hands Top 10 vertical all time Best cone drill among wr and 2nd best overall Absolutely fearless anywhere on the field in air or on the ground. I like slick Ricky 💯
I'm not going to lie I didn't like the first pick at first but I trust our coaching staff and Shanahan and John Lynch haven't let us down yet so let's go 49ers second pick here we go
Doesn't make me feel better. I wish we had traded the first round pick for early second round pick and then some and get Ricky.. I didn't think any team would pick Ricky in 1st round
RP is a great WR , great pick all you need to know is McVay wanted him, but this move looks like Deebo or Aiyuk are getting traded because they also took Cowling
I ❤this pick and the 49ers didn’t trade either one of our wideouts BA is his friend they played together at Arizona State before he transferred transferred to Florida
Folks that hate this pick base their decisions on all the mock drafts that are available in espn, nfl and bleacher report…..fans just want that draft grade to be an A……Niner gang listen to people that actually played the sport - they are raving about him….listen to steve smith in his evaluation…he has elite measurables, he doesnt drop passes and he had 4 different qbs and he succeeded with the last qb being a bum….dont think ohh they over reached…..the niners are picking last on 1st and 2nd rd…..u have to pick YOIR GUY - THIS IS KYLES GUY…..my grade is incomplete but i am exited as hell - show me Slick Rick!
