Ken Sugiura wrote a very detailed article for the ajc.com that explained how the San Francisco 49ers front office feels about DeAndre Smelter’s prospects for getting on the football field this season for their team.
As Tech fans already know, Smelter suffered a torn ACL in the Georgia Bulldogs game last season and missed the pre-draft workouts rehabbing his knee.
The injury did not deter the San Francisco 49ers from taking him with the 132nd pick of the fourth round.
San Francisco 49ers GM Trent Balke explained what turned him on about DeAndre Smelter as a player when he was quoted as saying this in the ajc.
