2015 NFL Draft: DeAndre Smelter Is Now A San Francisco 49ers Wide Receiver

You thought I was playing when I said I wanted to send Georgia Tech players to California.

I actually thought DeAndre Smelter would go to San Diego to play with Phillip Rivers, but the Bay Area had a better idea with the San Francisco 49ers deciding to draft Smelter with the 132nd pick of the 4th round in the draft.

This is a great spot for Smelter! He is going to love the Bay Area– trust me I know!

San Francisco had to have fallen in love with his size at 6-foot-3, 225 pounds, which is pretty comparable to Anquan Boldin’s frame.
