A couple cut-ups...

4.50 with a groin and/or core injury...has to be a lot faster than that.
If he had that sort of injury or was recovering from it at the combine the guy will be a jet and a beast. The adversity he had in his background growing up will keep him hungry and level headed. I like the pick. I am predicting BEAST.

I agree...if he ran in the 4.3s maybe he goes ahead of Reagor, Jefferson, and even one of the "top three" guys.
So glad he ran that 4.50 with the injury.

What people fail to understand is 40 times mean nothing if you can't get off the LOS. DB's in the nfl will put their hands on ya, and punch you in the chest. Aiyuk uses those long arms to keep those guys form getting that type of leverage. How many receivers come out of college with excellent speed, only to never be able to really employ it because a DB (Sherman, cough) knocks them silly at the snap. The guy has that "Aldon Smith" arm thing going that swipes those hands from his chest.

5-6. Class is stacked. He's def a 1st round guy. He'll be graded as highly as anybody else outside of the top 1-2 WRs. Doing it this year with a true freshman QB. And in our case, he's tailor made for Shanahan.

Just got off a zoom call with Aiyuk's position coach. He's been coaching WRs for 40 years. He said Torry Holt is the best wideout he's ever coached, but Aiyuk is the closest WR he's had to Holt.

"His ceiling is so high. He's just starting to reach his potential."

Coach Fisher said this 3rd & 16 play against Oregon is a better judgment of Aiyuk's speed than his 40 time.

"Brandon has competitive speed. He's as fast as he needs to be. They had the angle on him here, and he still ran by the safety." pic.twitter.com/9eWToti0TY
Fisher said it should be a no-brainer to have Aiyuk return punts because he will pick up "at least two first downs a game for you" pic.twitter.com/ucBmR3NPkx

I told him Aiyuk doesn't seem like he has a plan against press coverage and has to improve there.

"He may have run a 4.5, but he has 4.3 feet. He's electric. He'll be fine with more reps."

Lastly, Fisher said Aiyuk would be special because of his run after catch skills. "That's his calling card." He pointed to these two screens.

He said there isn't a better fit for Aiyuk than the 49ers. "He's so good on slants and in-breaking routes." pic.twitter.com/FxgxvSzVfi
