Verse was not a surprise
However, the club had Mitchell the CB on the board, and do wonder if that kid was stacked at all for them. With a day or two to sit on that, it seems obvious that they were intent on getting that defensive front addressed.
Weighing in on how the club viewed Chop also makes for interest. FWIW, I thought Verse fit us best among those top edges, and also his build suggested that he has the right mass to endure moving inside. If Verse wasn't there? We'll never know
BTW, they said the club was looking to move up inside the 10th pick for an offensive player.
Do you have a guess about who that player might have been?
Funny. When SF picked Pearsall I instantly thought of you. This kid has all the markers for being outstanding, but did SF want to avoid seeing him on another NFC West club, or did their scouts just go goo goo eyes for him? "Beholders Eyes."
Very interested to see Kinchens
He appears to be far more that traditional deep outfielder. Don't remember seeing that type a guy too much.
'Course with the scheme that they're using perhaps that's why.
