49ers may draft wide receiver to aid Purdy

Brock Purdy is currently in contract talks with the San Francisco 49ers. The team hopes to strengthen its roster after a disappointing season where they missed the playoffs. Last season, the 49ers fell short of expectations, finishing last in their division. One of their key players struggled significantly and was traded to the Washington Commanders during free agency. Injuries have also affected other players, prompting the team to consider selecting an offensive player in the upcoming draft. The 49ers hold the 11th overall pick in the draft. Many top players may be off the board by then, but there are still promising options available. One standout is wide receiver J.J. Golden from the Texas Longhorns. He impressed at the NFL Combine with his speed and had a strong 2024 season, with 58 receptions for 987 yards and nine touchdowns. Another potential pick is wide receiver Jacob McMillan from Arizona. He may not be as well-known, but he has impressive stats, including a school record of 3,426 receiving yards over three seasons. His ability to gain yards after the catch could make him a valuable addition to the 49ers. If either player is available, they could help give Brock Purdy more support on offense.
