Two way player. Elite at both positions. Not surprised he got it.
Isn’t he a three-way player? I didn’t watch them much, but I thought he returned kicks too.

I am a 49ers fan. In case you haven’t noticed we don’t consider special teams to be part of the game. It’s just some strange unrelated thing that occurs and costs us games.
reply
Since the greatest punters in NFL history are Raiders, the nation makes sure to remind people that it is in fact part of the game.
reply
Special teams cost the 49ers the Super Bowl and at least two games this year so I wish our coach took it as seriously as you but he doesn’t.
reply
When the 49ers were good, I thought he should take it even less seriously. Go for it on every 4th down and only go for 2 pt conversions. Use those special teams roster spots on more weapons.
reply
Maybe that will be next years strategy. I was listening to a 49ers podcast and they did a live mock draft. Host is like “we got OT, DE, DT, C with our first four picks” and I am thinking that’s great but no way in hell Shanahan lets that happen. He needs at least 1 WR or RB in the first 3 rounds.

Especially with the Deebo and Aiyuk situations. Not to mention hedging against guys getting shot in the post apocalyptic hellscape that SF has descended into.

Can you believe this season?
2 guys hold out.
2nd most snaps missed in a season by pro bowl players ever.
A guys gets shot.
Ward’s daughter dies and then Williams and his wife have a stillborn child.
A former all pro cries for the ball and then has the worst game of his career.
Another former all pro walks off the field and refuses to play because he lost his starting job.
49ers need an exorcist.
It’s not out of the realm of possibility that Mahomes is a demon who has cursed the 49ers because he is tired of whopping their ass.
Interesting thing is that he is probably not the best pure wr or pure cb in this class. Top 3-5 player at each but will be interesting how nfl teams underwrite that especially if they intend to have him only play predominantly on one side in the pros
reply
If a team is going to use a top 5 pick on him I would guess they will use him at both positions at least some of the time.
reply
That is the exact feature that made it for him. Where is he better and where do teams need him more? I’m sure he will go of in one of the top spots. I wonder how much he will go off for.
reply
Agreed but almost breaking Barry sanders record and having more yards after contact than any other rbs total yards is wild
reply
And, he is a CB, too. No wonder he beat the field!
reply
Incredible season.
