San Francisco 49ers offensive line coach Pat Flaherty was seen talking with and assisting in the workout of
Ole Miss OT Laremy Tunsil at the school's pro day today. Flaherty was running the offensive line drills for the day. He is unlikely to be the only member of the 49ers organization at the pro day that features not only Tunsil, but
WR Laquon Treadwell as well.
Treadwell ran his 40 yard dash in the 4.6-second range, according to
NFL Network. Certainly not blazing speed, but perhaps not a deal breaker for a team like San Francisco says Cam Inman of the
Mercury News.
Both Tunsil and Treadwell are expected to go in the first round of next month's draft, perhaps even in the top half of that round. Tunsil is expected to be the first Ole Miss player taken, likely going long before the 49ers select with the seventh overall pick.
Another player that the 49ers might be looking at, who might be available after the first round, is defensive lineman
Robert Nkemdiche.
Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee speculates that the team could also be taking a look at
OT Cooper Fahn as well.
According to the school, the Ole Miss pro day had 63 representatives from all 32 NFL teams.
Laremy Tunsil is 6-5 and 310 pounds with an arm span measuring 34-1/4 inches. Cooper Fahn is 6-3, 303 pounds with an arm span measuring 34-3/4 inches.
