2021 NFL Draft: Bears land top pick in preseason 2021 NFL mock draft
By Kyle Edmond
2021 NFL Draft Round 1, Pick 23 (San Francisco 49ers, 11-5)
This off-season has been a struggle for the 49ers to find answers at the wide receiver position. Deebo Samuel and 2020 first-round pick Brandon Aiyuk have both battled injuries. As the year unfolds, perhaps other players will emerge, but until then investing in more wide receivers might be the move for San Francisco.
The 2021 NFL Draft will be just as full of wide receivers as the 2020 NFL Draft and double-dipping with one in each class might not be a bad idea.
Rondale Moore is considered one of the better players of the class with off the charts speed and Tyreek Hill potential. As a freshman in 2018, Moore totaled 1,258 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns while adding over 200 rushing yards and an additional two touchdowns on the ground. He also served as a returner.
If George Kittle is the San Francisco version of Travis Kelce, then there are few questions about what Moore would bring to that offense and help everyone on it. Moore’s abilities are something that the 49ers don’t quite have on the offense yet and he could be the missing piece to the Super Bowl puzzle, bringing a whole new dimension to the offense and Kyle Shanahan’s scheme.
