Bid Bodied WR Redzone Threat

I highly doubt the niners throw money at any free agent big Redzone WR at this point, not many left so I see them getting their guy through the draft but who and when..? Definitely not at 9, none worth that early of a pick..

Here are a some guys to look at

Courtland Sutton 6'4 225 4.54
Equanimeous St.Brown 6'5 218 4.48
Auden Tate FSU. 6'4 228 4.68
Marcel Ateman 6'4 216 4.63
Sammie Cobbs Jr 6'3 220 4.64
Jaleel Scott 6'4 215 4.56
Deon Cain 6'2 202 4.43
DJ Chark 6'3 199 4.39
Allen Lazard 6'4 227 4.56
Jake Wienke 6'4 221 4.67
Marquez Valdes-Scantling 6'4 207 4.37

I personally would love to have 1 of Auden Tate or Marcel Ateman in the 3rd..I think both are huge tough physical WR who high points the ball very well..

Who would you draft for Jimmy G to throw some jump balls to ??

We need Sparq scores.

James Washington is more of a ref zone threat than St. Brown
Should D.J. Chark (6-3, 199, 4.34) be included on the OP? I'm glad you included Valdes-Scantling

Height alone doesnt make one a "redzone threat"
Marcel Ateman would be a perfect fit with what we already have.

Thats why I said BIG BODIED Redzone threat tho..I was basically specific for what I think the niners are looking for..
I mean if you want a pure redzone threat in this draft i would go with auden tate. His combine performance could push him to go 5th or 6th, but damn it he will win those jump balls, even if he has a s**tty vertical.

I was confused with the chark, Cobb, st. Brown additions

1. DJ Chark 6'3 199 4.34 40" vertical jump also a returner. Over 21 yards per catch, sixth in nation. Ran track and long jump. LSU
2. Equanimeous St.Brown 6'5 218 4.48 Notre Dame

We need big and fast receivers for our offense. Chark's stock went up after Senior Bowl, Co-MVP and Combine. Some are projecting him in 1st or 2nd round.

Lots more choices for this position of need in the draft than there are edge rushers. Guess the Niners wanted to save some money in free agency and this is where they chose to do it. Nice list.

Jake Wienke would be a great late round addition to play that role. He'd actually be a good slot WR and/or move TE as well.
We can also get a big ol TE if you guys want someone big
