Which 1st rounder are you more excited to see play?

Kinlaw would have been a top 10 pick if not for the concerns about his knee. So in a way we should be thankful for those concerns.

Both, really. But Kinlaw the most. He's going to be a nightmare for interior OL...like his SC DL Coach said, if he gets his hands on you or strikes you, you're in trouble. I'm really stoked Coach Kocurek will be his first NFL DL coach...he's excited to get time w/Kinlaw. When you have a coach like that, it should spell trouble for opponents. Coach K's got a knack for getting the most out of his players...to wit, Kerry Hyder had his best season under him in Detroit. It's no accident Lynch signed him. He'll have a chance to resurrect his NFL career under him.

Kinlaw by a mile.

While I think both picks fit the systems they were drafted for, Aiyuk could work in anyone's offense. I think Kinlaw hit the lottery by landing on the 49ers. He is kinda a one trick pony, but these team is set up to FEAST on his one trick.

I really like the WR rotation, but i am just as exited to see Jennings play as i am Aiyuk. That's not a nock on Aiyuk...just the way i see it.

Kinlaw. He'll probably get the most reps as he is expected to replace Buckner right away.

i recall this thread from a few years ago when we drafted foster and thomas

Both

blazing speed?you do know Aiyuk had the 4th fastest run out of the top3 speedsters in the NFL he has speed he ran21.97 mph on a TD run if that`s not blazing then tell me what is.He had a core injury when he ran the combine 40 which resulted in a 4.5 time injuried!

Agree. Kyle usually doesn't even look at WR's unless they're sub 4.4 Even then, he'll look at all the other stuff in addition to speed a WR brings to the table.

Any substantiating links concerning this? All I've seen thus far is message board yappers repeating the same minimal strain of info over and over. Anything besides he left the Senior Bowl early? Please share.

Kinlaw because it was so satisfying when we picked him after months of telling know it alls on Twitter that this regime would go DL not WR and being right.

It's a tie between KIn and Aiyuk.

I think I have to go with Kinlaw on this one. Shanahan does such a good job of scheming his offense that you have to assume that Aiyuk will get his touches and make a contribution. It will be a definite bonus if he ends up being able to transfer some of his college highlight skills to the NFL but with Hurd, Taylor and McKinnon hopefully all coming back healthy it may not be necessary for him to step up right away.

I think Kinlaw will have to carry the burden of higher expectations so will have more to prove in a shorter period of time. Not only is he replacing a really solid, steady player but Lynch pretty much said that the team's identity is tied to their defensive line. He wants their D-line to dominate so Kinlaw will really need to be the player they thought he would be when they drafted him. He can't be another miss like Thomas or be sidelined by knee troubles that end up being worse than the team believes them to be. So in that regard I am for more interested in seeing how he does.

I want to see Kinlaw like he's my in-law..

Lamb and Judy. Too see how we wiffed again.
