WRs: 2026 Draft Class

I'm not quite sold on Stribling.. Very stiff and linear. Good fit for the word boom or bust.

Has some similarities to DK Metcalf. Not as big, strong but not as strong, but best at a particular thing. Gets vertical.

I just don't know what it is. With DK the dude just looked different on tape. DS just doesn't look the same caliber, despite the difference in production.

I've got him as a Round 4 guy. Good blocker, situational player, but not sure if I see I huge chance at being a top guy.

But then Kendrick Law at 127 comes and saves the day. A thick alpha YAC blocking beast.

Hope we go KC if we do go WR.

Why? Because I think he could give Devon Witherspoon some problems when we play SEA. We need to match quick twitch talent for talent.

I really like the idea of getting KC at #27 and then in the 4th also adding Kendrick Law. Adding two young and talented guys like KC + Law to the WR group who both specialize in YAC would really help us in the present and future.

KC is kinda like Aiyuk with route running and Law is built thick like Deebo and gets YAC and is just as fast.

#27. KC Concepcion WR
#58. Jaishawn Barham EDGE
#127. Kaleb Proctor DT
#133. Beau Stephens G
#138. Kendrick Law WR
#139. Travis Burke OT / VJ Payne S

I think Boston is more polished at every level of playing the WR position. I'm not sure how DS is as a person but everything I've read is Boston is a workaholic. They have a jug machine chart at Washington and he has over 15,000 catches over the course of the past two yrs.

while I'm higher in KC for other reasons, don't be shocked if Kyle loves Boston. He's a higher ceiling JJ.

I agree I'm not taking him until the 4th and I'm not expecting much from him.

Yeah people talking about taking him at #58 and I'm like wut...

Damn would be a massive reach

Bro ran a 4.8 3-cone at 6-4 215lbs, that's Nico Collins level.

I'm telling people if he's there that's probably one of Kyle's dudes.

Will he make it to our 4th round or is he get drafted with our 2nd rounder? Dude is strong, fast ultra explosive and play with so-so QB. If we can skip WR later, I like this kid.

Based on what that one dude who leaks 49ers' picks said, I bet the 49ers want Chris Bell. I just hope they hold off on selecting him as long as possible. Do not touch that guy until at the very earliest pick 90 and preferably later.

Josh Cameron on day 3 is my choice for value

But Germie Bernard or Ted Hurst tomorrow would be exciting
Don't even want a WR til 3rd/4th/5th now lol

Boston with first 2nd round pick

Brazell/Branch/Bernard/Williams/Sarratt with 58 pick

Burks/Bell/Hurst/Fields/Bell with 3rd round picks would all be solid in my book today
I can't see unsee this now
