Positive signalSleeper

Stribling's ADP discount and 49ers opportunity make him a great late-round value.

Stribling is ranked ECR 62 vs. ADP 53, making him a consensus sleeper. Derek Brown notes he has been zooming up draft boards since Ricky Pearsall's season-ending PCL injury, and despite San Francisco bringing back Deebo Samuel on a one-year deal and Christian Kirk dealing with a calf injury, Brown will still draft Stribling at cost. Stribling posted 2.15 and 2.44 yards per route run during his final two collegiate seasons with 7.3 and 6.7 yards after the catch per reception (17 missed tackles forced across both seasons per PFF). He offers the 49ers a varied skill set with ability to make players miss in space, outrun them with the ball in his hands (4.36 40-yard dash), and create yards after the catch. Brown projects Stribling as a great late-round selection in 2026.
