Ricky Pearsall

PositiveRole0:00

The source identifies Ricky Pearsall as a locked-in Week 1 starter for the 49ers who is expected to see the field in two-wide receiver sets immediately. Pearsall is a high-level athlete at 6'2", 207 lbs with 4.36 speed, and the team viewed him as a top-40 draft talent regardless of his landing spot. Beat reporters have noted parallels between his skill set and that of Brandon Aiyuk, and he stands to benefit from the efficiency of quarterback Brock Purdy and potential target availability if George Kittle remains banged up.

0:00Stribling looks like he could be on the
0:01field in two wide receiver sets like
0:04from the jump and the there's been
0:06positivity coming out of training camp
0:07as well. He's a polarizing player in the
0:10fantasy community, but do we need to
0:11just sort of get over any draft priors
0:14and just start drafting him?
0:15>> We are talking about a guy who I think
0:16is just going to be a locked-in week one
0:19starter for the San Francisco 49ers.
0:22With George Kittle also maybe banged up
0:24like it might be time to just in there.
0:26Like Evans is 33 coming off of an injury
0:28filled season.
0:29>> I think Stribling's in a fantastic spot.
0:31He was drafted 33rd overall. The team
0:34loves him. There was a bunch of other
0:37sort of NFL draft experts who came out
0:39and said that if Stribling didn't go to
0:4149ers at 33, he would have gone in the
0:43top 40. So he was like a looked like a
0:44top 40 pick regardless of landing in San
0:47Francisco and it's like there's
0:49parallels with the beat reporters with
0:51some of the stuff he does with some of
0:53the stuff Brandon Aiyuk could do. So
0:55it's really interesting and we we love
0:56Brock Purdy's ability and and
0:58efficiency.
1:006'2 207 and he runs a 436 40. I mean the
1:04dude's an absolute monster athlete.
