Brandon Aiyuk | ASU WR | 6-0, 203, 4.45

I too agree that a WR upgrade was needed. That wasn't what this conversation was about though.

Worth 31st pick

Perhaps the most complete WR in the draft.

Should be good to go.

Will this affect his draft stock?

No. He ran a 4.5 *with* core and groin injuries. Never had an injury problem in season.

There's no OTAs to miss anyways. Should be a non factor.

I mentioned earlier that this could have affected his time with these injuries. Plays way faster on tape. My first choice after the big 3. Honestly, I like him after Jeudy and Ruggs relative to where he gets drafted

Brugler's comparison for Aiyuk.

5. Brandon Aiyuk, Arizona State: "The definition of a playmaker is a player who turns small plays into big plays and that is exactly what Aiyuk can do with his dynamic athleticism, projecting similar to Emmanuel Sanders (his skill set, role and impact) at the NFL level."

I said the same watching him. Looks exactly like Eman to me

Also:

NFC personnel executive: "Lamb, Shenault and Aiyuk aren't your natural, traditional, fluid, route-running receivers. They're almost Anquan Boldin types, but today people say Deebo Samuel. You get the ball out quick, run after catch, end around, slip screens, that kind of stuff they're doing so much more now of with receivers."


Makes a lot of sense that the 49ers would show interest in all three, although Shenault's injury issues could scare several teams off.

Which is precisely why he'll be a 49er.
