Mayo, i got a feeling we all want to see Jennings on the field, not for what he can do...but for what he WILL do.

Looking at Jennings with his shirt off during workouts, I saw lots of baby fat. Clearly he was never in top shape at Tenn. The 49ers will whip him into shape and he'll be much quicker than his timed 40. The best is yet to be seen from Jennings IMO.

Why draft jennings when you can wait 20 minutes and sign him as udfa. What's the advantage to the organization?
Despite what people have said about locking him up before free agency, which are very good points for using a 7th for him. I also see your point that a 7th rounder is just one stepped removed from Undrafted Free Agency. Personally, with our WR squad really bolstered by Aiyuk and the returning picks of last year in Hurd and Pettis/Taylor - I would have gone with a DB pick instead. I mean after the 4th round, generally you are picking players who have a slim chance to become starters, and at most -- be good backups. I think Kyle Shanahan, has to realize he has an excellent offensive coaching reputation and on that reputation alone -- I think he can get offensive free agents that would have gone easily to other teams. In other words, I think if Kyle pursued Jennings in free agency, I think he'd have easily gotten him, and if not, there would have been many others of Jenning's level of ability that would have come and signed up with Kyle, in my opinion.
Good post, Giedi.
All you peeps talking about 7th rounders and slim chance to contribute... you do realize like 40% of the league is made up of UDFA's

But did he have hands on hips?

If he was picked in the third round it would be the most hated pick. Everyone loves it as a seventh rounder

Yeah as far as 7th round picks go there is a lot of excitement for the kid.
We'll see if he's worth it in time.

Nah. He'll only have four offensive plays per game, knock three people out, and spend the rest of the game recharging his superpowers by feeding off the opposing defenses' uncontrollable fear.
