Mentioned it in the Kaep thread, but #8, Erik Lora, is heck of a WR. Kid stood out in the video to me. Looked up his stats and the last to years had crazy stats.
2012: 136, 1664, and 12 TDs
2013: 123, 1544, and 19 TDs. And threw a TD each year. One is in the Garoppolo video.
We need to use a 7th or make him a priority UDFA. Kid looks like heck of a slot WR.

Sounds like the what happened at Kaeps pro-day.

How awesome must that be to have Jim Harbaugh walk up to you and be like "what's up, wanna play catch?" Kaepernick's like "wait a minute, that's the same line he used on me."

Eric Edholm @Eric_Edholm 10m So they did, and Garoppolo and Harbaugh ducked on to an off-limits-to-others part of the field and threw and talked for 45 minutes.

Eric Edholm @Eric_Edholm 1m One last Harbaugh nugget on Garoppolo: He watched several of his games over 4 years. Also: "I enjoyed following him through [this] year."

Any chance a team trades up for the 49ers first round pick for him?

David Kaplan ‏@thekapman

Eastern Ill. QB @JimmyG_10 on @gamechicago "It was really cool warming up with Jim Harbaugh. He can still throw the ball!"

.@JimmyG_10 "Coach Harbaugh and I didn't talk about the draft at all. We talked football and the QB position."

Nope, 49ers are drafting him, Kaepernick's gone, gonna get traded to the Dolphins.

Paraphrasing a classic line from Yogi Berra "seems like deja vu all over again". This story sounds identical to when Kaep and Jim hung out at Kaeps pro-day. Seems like Jim might have a little QB crush.

I think we take Jimmy Garoppolo if he falls to the 4th round.

And that folks is not going to happen.

Don't be shocked if the 49ers take a QB before the 4th round, I certainly wouldn't, ESPECIALLY if Kaepernick hasn't been extended yet by the draft, that would be a major shot across the bow.

Jim Harbaugh told me on Jimmy Garoppolo: "Quick release, yes, but sometimes too quick. You want to see him go through whole motion." #49ers

Don't see him looking off receivers or making any progressions in the highlight clip...
