The positive for me: He came out healthy

I shouldn't be surprised anymore but it's always funny reading these reactions

Speaking of Abdul, I saw a rep of him free rushing to Daniels and the way it looked it seem like he was closing out on a 3pt shot instead of going for a sack lol...

I'm not as down on Mykel Williams as some people are. He's a good run defender, he's hard to move and he maintains gap integrity. He's a big reason the 49ers didn't give up any scrambles yesterday. Clearly, he's a big work in progress as a pass rusher, but he's unselfish.

There may be some good points to that. It's not a bad take. He's a better run stopper and hold the edge player than pass rusher. But he always was. The question is that worth the #11 pick? That's pretty high.

Maybe his gold chains, sunglasses and watches were slowing him down.

One thing that did stand out to me after rewatching the game—and it's not a surprise given we kept hearing it from his teammates—is how freakin big Mykel is. Dude looks massive at end. I wonder how much weight he cut during the draft process because he looks so much bigger now. It shows up in his game, too. Ends that bump inside don't typically put guards on skates with power.

Again, this kid is only 21.

People make fun of that play, but I thought it was a smart move. Jayden would have probably juked him if he ran full speed and try to sack him. He got big and put his hands up and contained him. The result was a throw out of the back of the endzone
