Would have to be another type of meeting where they spoke with shanny for sure I agree. That's why I think Xavier Legette is probably the target. Here are the other top 30 visits. Side note: if you trade Aiyuk, your WR depth (even if you draft a WR in the first round) still needs another guy. I'd guess they double up and take a mid-round WR. Top 30 Visit WR Xavier Legette, South Carolina WR Javon Baker, UCF WR Malachi Corley, Western Kentucky WR Jacob Cowing, Arizona WR Johnny Wilson, FSU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhyAmIHere Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 10 minutes ago, 49erurtaza said: The 49ers really only have one WR in the top 30 visits whom I'd consider being a potential first-round pick in Xavier Legette. I think we would need to look at players they have met with at the combine, which has more options. I'd say Xavier Legette is probabaly the pick at 31 if Aiyuk is traded. Combine WR Xavier Worthy, Texas WR Brian Thomas Jr, LSU WR Ladd McConkey, Georgia WR Xavier Legette, South Carolina WR Brenden Rice, USC WR Bub Means, Pitt WR Jalen McMillan, Washington WR Luke McCaffrey, Rice If they are trying to replace Aiyuk with Legette, that would leave us with no WRs who can actually run good routes lol. I'd bet the under on our season win total lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenK Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Maybe some receivers came in during the last (silent) 9. I do think we will draft 2 receivers total. I have to imagine a speed/kick returner as well as a route runner. Depending on how everything plays out, I like Javon Baker (3rd/4th round) and Anthony Gould (5/6th round).

Forge Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 This feels like a year where we may veer away from only picking 30 visit guys early in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4L Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Josh Norris' yearly mock the night before is generally very good. He seems very plugged into the draft. He seems to have some real inside info. Nailed a few things the last two years. At 27:25 he says that he has heard that aiyuk is getting traded. Wish he would have said the team. Doesn't sound like it's for a first round pick because it wasn't in the mock. 3 hours ago, 49erurtaza said: Without aiyuk, we will need some speed and someone to stretch the field. I am in on worthy of we trade aiyuk, but he isn't really an X WR. We wouldn't have one on the roster without aiyuk. I also understand the idea we can manufacture touches for WRs in this offense, and if your main role is stretching the field then you don't need someone making 25m to do it, but we had better get a WR who is ready to play day 1, because Kyle isn't someone who relies on young WRs. So it's hard to spend the time to actually develop a WR just to let them walk. We've missed on a lot of WRs here, and it doesn't seem like Kyle wants a young player getting snaps. Something in his evaluation of players and how he develops them is wrong/broken. It's a huge risk to take in a year when we are trying to finally get over the hump. Feels backwards. Would need to add a WR and get another starter to make it feel worth it. Robbing Peter to pay Paul at that point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustrianNiner Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Alright, I'll be the guy, Worthy is one of the few first round options that would get me excited. Him at full speed motion at the snap could be a great weapon, I see it just like DJ. However, he clearly would be a supplementary piece to Aiyuk, rather than his replacement. If they trade Aiyuk, McConkey certainly makes more sense, although I'm a bit concerned about the nagging injuries he had in college. I get the concerns about Worthy's weight, but I think he could put on some mass without losing his speed. Legette is the one I don't get. He is so stiff and it takes him forever to turn, I really want him to succeed in the NFL, but I'm not sure he will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4L Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 If we trade aiyuk, it had better be for a tackle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
