The San Francisco 49ers shocked some fans with the first of their two first-round picks on Thursday. The team moved down one spot from No. 13 overall to select South Carolina DT Javon Kinlaw, leaving several wide receivers on the draft board.

Below are some of the reactions from Kinlaw's new 49ers teammates following the selection.


Kendrick Bourne on Thursday predicted that the 49ers would add a receiver. His choice was Henry Ruggs III of Alabama. Both he and Jerry Jeudy were still available.


Kinlaw this week named the 49ers as the team he most wanted to join.

"They just a wonderful group of guys, a talented group that works together," Kinlaw said via a Bleacher Report AMA. "They work together for the same goal, not individual achievements, and that's to get the win at the end of the day. That's what I want to be a part of, someone who looks at it as a whole."

With the team lacking first-round picks in the last two drafts due to this move, and Lance no longer on the roster after being traded to the Dallas Cowboys before last season, it's clear the gamble didn't unfold as expected. Lynch held his annual pre-draft press conference on Monday, reflecting on the decision to take such a big chance on Lance. While such a bold move might have jeopardized jobs elsewhere, Lynch and Shanahan were blessed with some good fortune in the 2022 NFL Draft.
