The San Francisco 49ers added five new weapons during the three days of the 2020 NFL Draft, which wrapped up on Saturday. They kicked off the first round by adding defensive tackle
Javon Kinlaw of South Carolina, and then went offense with the remainder of their selections. That started with the team's second first-round pick — wide receiver
Brandon Aiyuk of Arizona State.
While the 49ers didn't have a Day 2 selection, lacking a pick between rounds one and five, the team's Day 3 haul included an offensive lineman, a tight end, and another receiver.

It looks like the San Francisco 49ers struck gold at wide receiver for the second consecutive year. It was Deebo Samuel in 2019, and in 2020, the Bay Area team landed another versatile wideout via the draft in Brandon Aiyuk.
Aiyuk finished the season with 60 receptions for 748 yards with five touchdowns. He added six carries for 77 rushing yards and another two scores on the ground.
The superb first year was enough to land Aiyuk on Pro Football Focus' 2020 NFL All-Rookie Team.
"The 49ers struck again," wrote Ben Linsey. "Aiyuk is in the same mold as the George Kittles and the Deebo Samuelses added to San

Like so many around the world, the way the San Francisco 49ers reacted to the end of 2020 can be summed up in one word -- relief.
Of course, things got quite unusual for the 49ers towards the end of 2020, given the fact the team had to live in a hotel in Arizona for over a month in order to finish its season after local COVID-19 ordinances in Santa Clara shut down any remaining home games. The 49ers' season came to an end with a 26-23 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, which means the players, coaches, and staff will now get the chance to go home -- and in some cases see their families -- for the first time in 32 days.
It's understandable then that after that loss to the Seahawks, 49ers players and head coach Kyle Shanahan showed visible happiness that 2020

Deebo Samuel has faced his share of injuries throughout his football career, but nothing ever hit him as hard from a mental perspective as what he went through in 2020.
Fortunately, the challenges Samuel faced in 2020 are now almost completely in the rearview mirror, and as a result, he's itching to jump into the offseason and get prepared for 2021.
Samuel spoke in detail with reporters Monday about what he went through in 2020, revealing that he faced a level of emotional challenge along the way that he hadn't experienced previously in his career. Samuel went through two injury-shortened seasons during his college days at the University of South Carolina, but a Jones fracture in his foot he sustained during an offseason workout in June followed by hamstring
