Hurd is quicker. He ran like a 7.0 3-cone which is good for a 6-5 225 WR. He was a top recruit as a RB which requires good footwork and vision.
Where did you hear Hurd ran a 7.0 3-cone?
He didn't run the 3-cone at the combine or pro day.
NFL.com says this: "Leggy with below-average short-area quickness"
He did run a slow 40 and a slow 10 yd split at his pro day:
40 Yard Dash: 4.64 seconds
10 Yard Split: 1.62 seconds

Hurd seems to be a reach ... he was projected in the ~5th rd
49ers should have picked Maxx Crosby (who I loved)
or traded up for DK Metcalf who was selected 3 picks before Hurd
