Re: Day 2:

Great! You proved your point. I'm glad they did, unsure about he may have to have shoulder surgery before the season...

I'll gladly accept one of the top tackles in the draft, especially with the seemingly determination to run the ball more this season

COOPER KUPP WR - EASTERN WASHINGTON BIG SKY
COMBINE RESULTS GRADE 5.77
4.62 SEC 31.0 INCH 116.0 INCH 6.75 SEC 4.08 SEC
6'2" HEIGHT 204 LBS WEIGHT
31 1/2" ARM LENGTH 9 1/2" HANDS
ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS Elite level of production for any level of football. Finished career as Division I career leader in receptions, yards and touchdowns. Hands are natural and strong. Catches passes like his idol, Larry Fitzgerald. Plucks it away from his body and immediately tucks it away. Utilizes route speed variances to create deep-ball opportunities. Extremely confident and competitive. Bodies up cornerbacks to win contested catches. Believes he can catch every throw and is able to make the circus grab look easy at times. Excellent ball-tracker. Uses force and leverage at break points to help create room out of his cuts. Manipulates coverage with head fakes and stutter-steps. Strong football bloodlines; grandfather played for years as an NFL guard and father was drafted by Giants as fifth-round quarterback in 1990.

Re: Day 2:

Mew..it's over with. I would have liked Foster but we can still get a solid defender. He is also a high risk player. Once he gets all that money no telling what happens. As one NFL player said, if you had issues before the money makes it worse. Well he does and odds are they will get worse.

Re: Day 2:

Demarcus Walker, Derek Rivers, or Jordan Willis and we can then rest a little easier on the pass rush issue...

Re: Day 2:

The 49ers said their medical staff does not believe first-round pick Reuben Foster will need additional shoulder surgery and he should be cleared in time for the start of training camp.

The Alabama linebacker, considered one of the top prospects entering the draft, almost slid out of the first round, in part, because of medical concerns, most centered upon a problematic shoulder that required postseason surgery to repair labrum and rotator cuff damage.

Re: Day 2:

There were more red flags on Foster than in Red Square during a Soviet military parade
