Speed and playmaking ability. They’ll make some noise for sure. Go @49ers https://t.co/XO9xI5Mu0g
Just when I think I'm out, John Lynch pulls me back in.
I LOVE Drake Jackson for this defense. Huge need for them and his speed rush is perfect for the scheme.

Drake Jackson on when the 49ers called him to pick him: “It felt like I walked outside of my body. I couldn’t believe it. My whole life has been dedicated to this moment."

@DrDisrespect king 👑 THE TWO TIME!!!! https://t.co/AH6Ubg2ZQJ
I love this fit for TDP. Go watch all the success he had in gap scheme runs in 2021. In the #Florida game he had a #LSU record 287 yds, and 3 TD’s. He had 36 attempts that day and it was mostly gap scheme runs (power/counter). He’ll thrive in the #49ers run system. #NFLDraft https://t.co/HCRzjmu147
