Good breakdown. I still think Jamison Williams fits our needs but I understand if he's off our board due to his injury. I just think it would lessen the blow of losing Deebo by drafting a faster player that can track the ball on deep passes. #oneplaydrive

Lol I watched the entire thing. Out of the entire group, Khalil Shakir looks most like a 49er--versatile, dynamic with the ball in his hands, physical, competitive. Did some quick research on him, and his teammates/coaches/scouts rave about his character. Shanalynch love that s**t. The way he moves with the ball in his hands reminds me of a more athletic Kendrick Bourne. They've both got that hunched over thing going on.

Cosell raving about Khalil Shakir

?t=639

A coach's dream, combining competitive nature, exciting versatility and elite character on and off the field. For a short-armed player with average explosiveness, Shakir puts an emphatic stamp on games. He's more football player than prototypical slot receiver and needs to prove he can handle an increase in contested catches. He can be activated from a variety of alignments with the vision, wiggle and toughness to move the chains once the ball is in his hands. He finds a way to frequently show up on the notepad when watching tape and his will to outperform the guy across from him should not be overlooked. Shakir should become a valuable piece for a creative play-caller.

Perfect world player comparisons:

Jameson Williams = Justin Jefferson, with presumably less route running polish
Garrett Wilson = Jarvis Landry
Treylon Burks = A smaller D.K. Metcalf
Drake London = Mike Evans
Chris Olave = DeSean Jackson
Jahan Dotson = Calvin Ridley
Christian Watson = 6'4" Tyreek Hill
George Pickens = Chad Ochocinco

I can't see Shanny taking a WR in the top 15, ever. not his style.
Give me the 10th and 35 pick and you can have him. Stingley with the 10th and Doctson/Watson with the 35 and then bkack to the regular board with our picka.

Garrett Wilson runs a 4.39 and Landry ran 4.77................ Yeah no
Not sure if there is a best just depends what you are looking for.

Slot machine - Skyy Moore
Size advantage - London
Probably best but may need red shirt year - Jameson Williams
Personal fav - Olave
North Dakota to SF pipeline - Watson
Rondale Moore catagory - Calvin Austin

Really bad.
I don't think there is any #1 WRs in this draft but plenty of #2 WRs. I would much rather take a WR at 61 or in the 3rd. Some WRs I like in that area are Shakir and Alec Pierce both have the ability to very good players.

Take OL or defense with the Deebo picks

Possibly. But was Deebo widely considered a WR1 when they drafted him? IMO there are 4-5 WR1 in this draft. They could all bust too. For every Justin Jefferson you get a Jalen Reagor.

If you asked me which WRs fit our scheme the best... I would say 1. Khalil Shakir 2. Jamison Williams (deep threat for Lance with YAC ability) 3. George Pickens (blocking)

I've been watching Shakir all day. He reminds me a lot of Robert Woods, who is one of my favorite WRs to watch in the NFL.
