DE/OLB
Say he continues to improve at the TE position… could be a good player for the 49ers!
Crazy! Sounds like quite the project. But he'll be learning from the best now.
You not gonna get a blue chip at pick 101. You only can hope for a raw project guy that is already good enough to beat out the current low cieling back ups already on the roster.

Latu's got really good hands. Yeah, looking forward to double TE sets with him & Kittle. I think the TE Willis (OK) could become Juice's replacement. He's stronger than Latu and looks more the hybrid FB-type. Really surprised he lasted 'til the 7th rd.
AGree, Walter Football graded him as a 4th round talent. I've been hoping they get Juszczyk's understudy in a long time. Three tight end set offenses, here we come!
If that comes into fruition (Willis a hybrid) we'll be talking "I like this kinda party"

Jordan Cameron who had 24 catches, 424 yards and 2 TDs

Will be interesting to see how he pans out, my completely uneducated eye test tells me I would want to see more separation on a "highlight reel" considering its Bama and he had a soon to be NFL qb throwing to him.
Agree.
Ya we'll see how he turns out. If he can be at least a solid backup it was a win. But personally I don't see him turning into some pro bowl player
It'll be really difficult for him to become a pro bowler because he's playing alongside kittle, CMC, Deebo, and Aiyuk.
i can see him being clutch for us on third downs and redzone though. If he becomes a pro bowler or ends up with great stats these next few seasons will be because he's open with the defense super focused on every one else and matched up against misfits.

Kittle and Greenlaw say hi, oh Brock Purdy sends an email greeting.

I'm referring to his skill set.
I would've preferred a better run blocking TE if we are just looking for a solid backup.

Don't understand this pick at all. Kid needs to develop a ton both as a route runner and definitely as a blocker. Waste of a pick after a waste of a pick with plenty of talent left on the board.
