49ers select Jalen Hurd with 67th in the third round

The San Francisco 49ers have doubled down on wide receiver. They selected Baylor wide receiver Jalen Hurd with the No. 67 pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. I can’t say many of us saw this coming, but Hurd is a much different receiver than Deebo Samuel and offers that big-bodied redzone thread the 49ers need.

The 49ers wide receivers may be underrated, but the production was not close to what they would want if they were to get in the championship hunt. They decided to not pick up Pierre Garçon’s 2019 option and also signed Jordan Matthews in free agency.
