pre draft visits

So this as close of a complete list I can compile right now. As I've mentioned many times before we draft or sign as UDFAs roughly 15% of the players we meet with in any fashion. The last 2 seasons we met with HALF of each of our draft classes so a big chunk of our picks are on this list.


1. Stephon Tuitt, DL: Visit
2. Aaron Lynch, DL, USF: Visit
3. Odell Beckham, WR, LSU: Pro day
4. Xavius Boyd, LB, Western Kentucky: Shrine
5. Baushad Breeland, DB, Clemson: Pro day + dinner with Baalke and visit
6. Preston Brown, LB, Louisville: Visit
7. Martavis Bryant, WR, Clemson: Visit
8. Jeremy Butler, WR, Tennessee-Martin: "Interested" according to WF and Pro day
9. Aaron Colvin, DB, Oklahoma: Visit
10. Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, OT, McGill: Shrine game and described as "Interested" according to WF
11. Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M: Pro day
12. C.J. Fiedorowicz, TE, Iowa: Senior bowl and visit
13. Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Eastern Illinois: Harbaugh at pro day
14. Ra'Shede Hageman, DL, Minnesota: Senior bowl
15. Gator Hoskins, TE, Marshall: Senior bowl
16. Stanley Jean-Baptiste, DB, Nebraska: Senior bowl
17. Storm Johnson, RB, Central Florida: Visit
18. Wesley Johnson, OL, Vanderbilt: Pro day
19. Demarcus Lawrence, LB, Boise State: Visit
20. Cassius Marsh, DL, UCLA: Shrine
21. Jeff Mathews, QB, Cornell: Shrine
22. Demonte McAllister, DL, Florida State: Shrine
23. Jack Mewhort, OL, Ohio State: Senior bowl
24. Trent Murphy, DL, Stanford: "Very interested" according to WF - Pro day
25. Matt Patchan%, OL, Boston College: Senior bowl, visit
26. Calvin Pryor, DB, Louisville: Combine
27. Paul Richardson, WR, Colorado: Visit
28. Shaquille Richardson, CB, Arizona: Shrine game
29. Charles Sims, RB, West Virginia: Senior bowl
30. Marcus Smith, LB, Louisville: Senior bowl and a visit?
31. Logan Thomas, QB, Virginia Tech: Pro day dinner w/ Harbaugh
32. Terrance West, RB, Towson: Visit
33. Albert Wilson, WR, Georgia State: Visit
34. Mike Pennel, DT: Pro day/private workout
35. Derek Carr, QB: Harbaugh claimed he would work him out
36. Nic Jacobs, TE: Visit
37. David Fales, QB: Harbaugh claimed he would work him out
38. Kain Colter, WR: Pro day
39. Taylor Hart, DT: Visit?
40. Dominique Easley, DT: Pro day?
41. Kyle Fuller, CB: Pro day - dinner w/ Harbaugh
42. Marqueston Huff, S: Combine
43. Jarod Brown, K: Pro day
44. Jason Verrett, CB: Pro day
45. Marcus Roberson (Florida): Baalke attended pro day, March 17.
46. Terrance Cobb, RB: Visit
47. Carl Bradford, ILB: Visit
48. Seantrel Henderson, OT: Visit
49. Loucheiz Purifoy (Florida): Baalke attended pro day, March 17.
50. Jaylen Watkins (Florida): Baalke attended pro day, March 17.
51. Timmy Jernigan (Florida State): Baalke attended pro day, March 19.


***additions I feel compelled to add*** We were at Mizzou's pro day for Blaine Gabbert as far as the public knew at the time and we took Aldon in the 1st instead. We've been secretive about all 3 of our 1st rounders so far as nobody had the slightest clue regarding Jenkins and IIRC the FO had almost zero interaction with Eric Reid (correct me if I'm wrong).

52. Sammy Watkins - Baalke at Clemson pro day
53. Kelvin Benjamin - Baalke at FSU pro day
54. Jordan Matthews - 49ers present at Vanderbilt pro day

Also by my count I'm aware of 20 private visits so that leaves 10 more to bring in? Anybody confirm that 30 is limit?

Yes believe limit is 30 but missing Brandin cooks who met with 49ers during the combine and pro day

Thanks sfout, lot of connecting the dots there.

Breaking down visits per position:

WR 10
CB 9
DL 9
OL 6
LB 5
RB 4
QB 4
TE 3
K 1

I'm pretty sure Aldon Smith and AJ Jenkins visited with the 49ers, and I wanna say Eric Reid did too or he did at the Combine.

Aldon never visited us as far as I know, couldn't find any reports to say yes or no.

Reid is a no as far as I can find. I did find one article saying we hosted him but then on 49ers.com he was quoted as saying he had next to zero interaction with the 9ers in the process". Walterfootball says we were "Very interested" but a March 31st 2013 dated draft visit tracker by Barrows does not mention Reid among the hosted safeties.

Here are excerpts from the 49ers.com piece immediately after the draft. Indicating that we never hosted him and in fact knew they wanted him when he was sophomore. Which may give credence to the Kyle Fuller possibility, because again I've stressed that we sent scouts to 6 VaTech games during 2012 season.

The 49ers general manager personally watched Reid play as a sophomore and felt like Reid would be a great fit on the roster."He's a prototype safety in terms of size," Baalke said. "He's got the height, weight and speed we were looking for."

But perhaps more importantly, Baalke felt Reid fit the team's already impressive defensive system. Reid can play the run and defend deep balls in flight."We feel good about his ability to insert and play a physical brand of football," Baalke said.The 49ers didn't need to bring Reid into the facility to get a better idea of his personality. Based on Harbaugh's recruitment of Reid in college and a visit with Reid at the NFL Scouting Combine, San Francisco felt comfortable with adding him to the roster.

Jenkins did visit us but the entire league viewed him as a day 2 pick at best is what I was getting at.

Out today:

The 49ers can bring in 30 prospects for private visits before the draft. Here are the 17 confirmed prospects the 49ers have invited to the facility for private visits:

1. Carl Bradford, OLB, Arizona State
2. Preston Brown, ILB, Louisville
3. Martavis Bryant, WR, Clemson
4. Terrance Cobb, RB, University of the Cumberlands
5. Aaron Colvin, CB, Oklahoma
6. C.J. Fiedorowicz, TE, Iowa
7. Seantrel Henderson, OT, Miami
8. Nic Jacobs, TE, McNeese State
9. Storm Johnson, RB, UCF
10. Demarcus Lawrence, DE, Boise State
11. Aaron Lynch, DE, USF
12. Matt Patchan, OT, Boston College
13. Paul Richardson, WR, Colorado
14. Kona Schwenke, DT, Notre Dame
15. Stephon Tuitt, DT, Notre Dame
16. Terrance West, RB, Towson
17. Albert Wilson, WR, Georgia State

Of the 17 known visits, is Tuitt and Lawrence the only 1st round prospects?

Nice private visit with Tuitt. That's who I want! And Harbaugh had dinner with Fuller. Would be damn sexy if we were able to get Fuller and Tuitt somehow.

A combination of something like Fuller/Tuitt/Latimer would be quite pleasing.

Eric Reid never visited the facility just at combine they knew who they wanted

RB Terrance Cobb is really an interesting prospect ! Totally forgot to add him to my list in my mock. Nice to see that he is on our radar.

Here is a little bit about him.

Indeed it would. I'd be one happy man if we came away with a combo like that

I put together a Pre-Draft Visit Big Board with this information connected to MadDog's BB, ironically, post #411: http://www.49erswebzone.com/forum/niners/177313-2014-team-needs-updates/page28/

It really sheds some light on where we will be going with re: to needs and most of these players should be available around where we pick too. So we have 56+ visits tallied so far so of the 11 picks, you've got to conclude a good number of our picks will come from this list.

Anyone remember the correlation to last year's picks?
