NFL Network is reporting that Baylor WR Corey Coleman will visit or have a workout with multiple NFL teams, including the San Francisco 49ers.
Other teams that he is reportedly visiting include the Cincinnati Bengals (who draft 24th), Detroit Lions (16th), Chicago Bears (11th), Carolina Panthers (31st) and Cleveland Browns (2nd), among others.
Currently at seventh overall, the 49ers' draft position is rather high for Coleman. Of course, there is always the possibility that the team is looking to move down in the first round.
In 2013, Coleman had 35 receptions for 527 yards and two touchdowns with the Baylor Bears. After missing the first three games of the 2014 season with a hamstring injury, Coleman had 64 receptions for 1,119 yards and 11 touchdowns. Last year, Coleman finished the season with 74 catches for 1,363 yards and 20 touchdowns and won the 2015 Fred Biletnikoff Award, given to the nation's best wide receiver.

Analyst on 49ers' draft options: 'John Lynch wants Trey Lance'
By David Bonilla
Apr 22, 2021
Analyst and writer Michael Detillier, who contributes to several media outlets, joined the BetQL Daily podcast on Thursday and discussed the San Francisco 49ers' upcoming quarterback decision in next week's draft. Detillier recalls the day the team moved up nine spots from No. 12 overall to get into a position to acquire one of the top young talents. He was getting ready to publish his mock draft and needed to make some changes as it was headed to print due to the trade.
While the national narrative quickly linked Mac Jones of Alabama to the 49ers, Detillier heard that general manager John Lynch had his sights set on a different prospect. Whether or not head coach Kyle Shanahan felt the same way is unknown.

The San Francisco 49ers shocked the NFL world on March 26 when they traded a haul of draft picks to move up to the No. 3 overall pick in this year's draft. It got everyone talking and speculating. Former BYU quarterback Zach Wilson was going through his pro day when the news broke. General manager John Lynch was in attendance, and the story seemed to overshadow the workout of the player widely expected to go No. 2 overall.
While everyone immediately assumed the 49ers' blockbuster move was for their quarterback of the future, which was confirmed by Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan three days later, one confident top prospect wasn't so sure.

Pelissero: Mac Jones a good draft fit for 49ers but keep an eye on Trey Lance

Apr 22, 2021
NFL insiders Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport joined NFL Network on Thursday and discussed the looming quarterback question that the San Francisco 49ers have to answer next week during the draft. Will it be Mac Jones of Alabama, as many are predicting? Or will the team ruin everyone's mock drafts and take Justin Fields of Ohio State or Trey Lance of North Dakota State?
While Jones is viewed as more pro-ready right now, Fields and Lance are viewed as more athletic and having higher ceilings.
"But what Mac Jones brings to the table are two characteristics that Kyle Shanahan really highly values," Pelissero explained. "He is a quick
49ers draft: John Beck shares what Kyle Shanahan seeks in a QB

Former NFL quarterback turned private coach John Beck joined KNBR on Thursday. He worked with Kyle Shanahan in Washington when the San Francisco 49ers head coach was the offensive coordinator there. The two remain close.
Beck has worked this offseason with two of the three prospects — Justin Fields of Ohio State and Trey Lance of North Dakota State — that are the betting favorites to be the No. 3 pick by the Niners. Mac Jones of Alabama has the best odds, followed by the other two. Beck has also worked at length with Zach Wilson of BYU, who is expected to go to the New York Jets at No. 2.
Everyone is trying to figure out Shanahan's thinking and predict who will be the 49ers' first selection. After all, the team traded a haul of draft picks, including
