2017 NFL Mock Draft: Browns and Titans Clean up
OLB. Texas A&M. Myles Garrett. 2. player. 42. Edge rusher prospect Myles Garrett didn’t fall to No. 2 overall, Allen just took No. 1 overall. He will make his impact on the San Francisco 49ers from the minute he enters the building. Garrett has all the juice you need to become a dynamic edge rusher in the NFL right now. <p>If he were allowed to come out last year, Garrett would have certainly went somewhere in the top five. At 6’5″, 262 pounds, Garrett has good length, burst and counter moves. His ability to convert speed to power is also right up there with the best of prospects.</p> <p>There’s nothing that you need an edge rusher to do that he can’t do on the football field. Meanwhile, the 49ers haven’t had a dynamic edge rusher that can also play the run since Aldon Smith. Losing ILB NaVorro Bowman is hurting the 49ers defense badly but so is not having a guy like Smith.</p> <p>The team has a solid, young interior D-line and a decent secondary plus Bowman will be back. Garrett would come in and give the 49ers the dynamic edge rusher they’ve needed to replace Smith. The defense would then be great again, leaving the 49ers to figure out the offesne.</p>
