WR. Jerry Jeudy. Pick Analysis. Alabama. 13. player. 42. Scouting Report

One pick after his college teammate went off of the board, the San Francisco 49ers make Jerry Jeudy their pick in this mock draft. Jeudy is a smooth and athletic receiver who cuts on a dime and consistently creates space as a route-runner. Jeudy can shake most cornerbacks in man-to-man coverage and also knows how to find space against zone.

Once he finds that space, Jeudy shows solid hands and is a tremendous playmaker with the ball in his hands. He is a naturally elusive player who can create on his own and stretch the field with his deep speed.

The 49ers currently sit with a pretty ugly situation at the wide receiver position. Deebo Samuel appears to be a star in the making, but besides him, there is nothing worth getting excited for at the position. However, after trading away star defensive lineman DeForest Buckner for this pick, the 49ers are in a good position to land one of the premier receivers in the 2020 NFL Draft.

San Francisco could certainly consider a cornerback or even an offensive tackle here. However, they cannot pass up the opportunity to land an impact talent like Jeudy to add to their offensive mix.
