Did 49ers reach for WR Ricky Pearsall?

Whereas the 49ers’ number of large receiver Ricky Pearsall obtained blended evaluations from followers, ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. was fairly simple together with his ideas. He wasn’t an enormous fan of the choice, dropping it in his listing of ‘head-scratching’ first-round picks.

Pearsall was under a handful of large receivers on Kiper’s huge board. Through ESPN:

This one makes you marvel what’s occurring with Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel, proper? May the 49ers have extra strikes coming? Ultimately, although, I had Pearsall ranked under each Xavier Legette, Keon Coleman and Adonai Mitchell, all of whom have been nonetheless obtainable on the finish of Spherical 1. Pearsall lit up the mix together with his testing numbers, and he could possibly be a greater professional than school participant. He’s my No. 10 wideout.

It doesn’t look on the floor just like the Pearsall choose has something to do with the instant futures of Aiyuk or Samuel. The presentation of the choice as a ‘attain’ on Kiper’s board is commensurate with different prime draft analysts.

He was behind Mitchell and Georgia WR Ladd McConkey on Daniel Jeremiah’s prime 150 listing.

Dane Brugler of the Athletic had him behind McConkey, Mitchell, Coleman and Michigan WR Roman Wilson.

A ‘attain’ is barely within the eye of the beholder and it’s clear the 49ers consider Pearsall is able to contribute instantly. If he can contribute to the extension of their Tremendous Bowl window he’ll have the ability to shed that ‘attain’ label rapidly.
