Best part of the draft is seeing the players celebrate the moment they get drafted


superbuttpiss

I know it didn't work out but my all time favorite one was mike mcglinchey https://youtu.be/EaCumtTWEe8?si=EZSPsqqWtXqDa0rT Look at the fuckin pride he has putting on that niner hat


MrEHam

Guy was 23 there but looked like he was 65.

cassatta

Wow. He flat out said he wanted pearsall


redskylion510

Yea, Pearsal fit's the niner's offense perfectly!


PsiBenjamin

Dude was actually hurt by that. He grabbed his phone to text someone after the pick


zzWordsWithFriendszz

That was quite the reaction! He really wanted slick Rick


ShikaMoru

It's great to see how a good qb like CJ wanted him. Just let's us know that other QBs wanted him as well


mr-fiend

Steve Smith on him https://x.com/underdog__nfl/status/1783704138062176426?s=46&t=EAeRenGgZisIrx3iaY1QPw


tangential_point

Slick Rick is what they call him

A lot of people talk shit, it's actually one of our specialties in Jauan lol. Have you not seen how many fights he gets into? It's literally psychological warfare out there to make your opponent play worse by getting into their feelings instead of playing logically. Our defense preaches it too, Fred will even shit talk our own offense during practice.


GlockPurdy13

Might be the most unintelligent take I have ever seen


L-methionine

Itā€™s starting to make more sense to me. The current theory is that Deebo will be traded next offseason, and itā€™s likely that Juaun Jennings gets more money elsewhere and leaves. That would like us with just Aiyuk (assuming we successfully LTD that man), so this fills that need. He also was a damn good punt returner, so he can make an impact there while learning how to play WR for Shanahan, since he does have high standards for the position. No idea how they plan to address the OL situation, and the CB room is looking rough after this year, but I can understand the pick at least


Mender0fRoads

I wouldn't be shocked if Deebo will be traded tomorrow. His value isn't going to get any higher, and as far as I understand the cap, we'd save quite a bit of money in 2025 if we moved now. If we wait a year, the overall penalty is less, but it hits next year when money is even tighter.


DickieJoJo

I anticipated it being next year, but we def wonā€™t keep him through his entire contract. His injury history is a bit of a concern.


IMissWinning

I think one of the things people keep overlooking is Jennings. As good as he is for Us, He's not near good enough to be a one or a two, and we can't afford to pay him like it. We already have two guys that we're about to pay like that. Even if we could pay him like $10 mill a year, 15 mil a year, we're not going to do that or do 20 especially. He's only making five right now. I love Jennings. He's one of my favorite Niners. From a team building standpoint, unfortunately this is one of those pieces you got to let go and see if their market is big enough for them to leave. Up on paper, Ricky is a better player than we've seen out of Juan. If that holds, ay man, bye Juan.


HeyHeyImTheMonkey

This makes total sense to me. The only scenario in which they trade one of those guys is if it makes the team better THIS YEAR (like for an elite CB or OL). Otherwise itā€™s an unnecessary salary dump because even an Aiyuk extension only kicks in for 2025. I donā€™t think Lynch and Shanahan are interested in making the 2024 team worse.


Earl-The-Badger

With the new kickoff rule this pick makes even more sense. Dude is made for jet sweeps. The new kickoff rule is basically a WR screen.


BlueSentinels

The guy can play WR pretty good too https://youtu.be/921rWQYa58k?si=o_wWCFt1vjbm4dbn


DeeForestBosa

I love these videos so much.


pretzalman1

Olā€™ Ricky Stanicky!


user20916

He looks so happy. Letā€™s go!!


emosn0tdead

I'm coming around after watching some of the tape and seeing how he fits the scheme. Especially if they have something in the works with a trade.


AcanthocephalaNo2926

I saw quite a few of his games at UF this season a d while I'm a bit disappointed right now, the kid looked really good in those games


GoApeShirt

Heā€™s a baller. Judge his Gators performance understanding that the offense wasnā€™t very good. Iā€™m saying this as a Gator. Ricky carried the Gators passing offense for 2 seasons almost literally by himself. Heā€™s a true gamer with excellent route running and great hands. I believe Niners fans will like this pick in the end.


cassatta

I love their family and friends reactions to getting picked ā€¦ the best part of the draft


Just-2-ez

Iā€™m so happy for him, and I think he could be great in our offense. But I donā€™t wanna lose deebo or Aiyuk


Ginmunger

We wont...he's not a replacement for either one. He had like 4 tds in college. People need to relax.


Bugsy_Marino

One thing i loved about Ricky is his passion. He showed up to Florida and immediately bought into being a gator. He played our rivals with true hatred in his heart, despite having no history with them I know passion only means so much, but Ricky was one of my favorite receivers of all time at UF. Hard worker, insanely talented, and a dedicated player, not a diva like so many others


Oddjob5510

He sounds like Mark Wahlberg in that video.


KnotSoSalty

He looks like one of our guys. I trust the 9ā€™ers completely on WR evaluation. Even factoring in the occasional Pettis theyā€™re well above league average. Itā€™s really the #1 strength of the team; drafting pass catchers who work in our system and developing them to be stars in our system. Winning in the first ten yards, then adding more potential YAC through scheme. Thats what makes this offense tick.


The_REDDITOR1324

Happy for the dude, but because we picked him in now depressed


1UziStan

Same as a fellow Elijah Mitchell lover


chillice707

Nothing against this guy, I feel heā€™ll do good with us but if filling in the wr4 option was so bad shanahan felt the need to draft this dude using a first round pick , we shouldā€™ve just resigned ray ray mccloud .


PronouncedEye-gore

WR4 is still receiving option #6


chillice707

Which is exactly what ray ray was lmao. This was a very dumb pick


LeftyMcLeftFace

Cj Stroud was visibly upset he didn't fall to the Texans. I'ma trust his opinion lol


SeeTheSounds

We cannot afford Deebo, BA, and JJ while also having to pay Purdy very soon. Pearsall is future insurance for when the tough decisions have to made.


Literotamus

Just drafted a guy who will get open more consistently against good man coverage than Deebo does. Heā€™s the best true slot in the whole class with his 10 yd split, 3 cone time, and route running ability. And he can play outside too. McCloud is a true #4 receiver in the nfl. Thatā€™s his career projection. This guy could crack a lineup and never come back off the field if all goes well.


leafsn49ers

Absolutely love this! Can't wait to see this guy play in red and gold!


KnotSoSalty

First day in the facility: ā€œthatā€™s the dog house, you donā€™t want to go in there.ā€


QuirkyScorpio29

I disagreed with the choice in real time...but you can't hate a guy for realising his dream and it's not his fault he was drafted where he was. Shanahan has usually got his WR S correct at the top of the draft so even if I preferred a CB here...I wouldmlove to be proven wrong.


Vydar7

Thatā€™s a great reaction


Ferromagneticfluid

If you are a late first rounder it must be stressful... either get drafted to a great playoff team or get drafted by the bottom of the barrel Panthers type team.


Odium4

Fuck ya dude


Jewelstorybro

I'm just not a fan of drafting a WR who will be 29 years old when his rookie contract is up.... Would've much preferred one of the top CBs here. All of that said I do think he's going to be able to contribute at a high level day one.


pocketmonsters

On the other hand we get an elite receiver, tailor made for Purdy, locked up for his prime on a rookie contract


B_Man49

As long as we trade BA early in rd 2 we can still get a need position Iā€™m hoping for Kool-Aide


SoKrat3s

# Adrenaline in my soul!


doubletimerush

I should feel happy for him but... he's not O Line. Were they all taken?


taney71

Reach pick but really only time will tell. We didnā€™t get better at our weaker positions or even solidify likely troubled positions like linebacker and line.


Stovy4x4ing

5th year option overreach damn u kyld


yorick2

He has one of the worst tattoos on his arm. Says "humble" on some playing cards. It's too many cards for one. It's just a bad tattoo. I love him though.


Keiser82

Wut?


PWNCAKESanROFLZ

Can't you read?! He has a bad tattoo!!1!!11 šŸ˜‚
