2017 NFL Mock Draft: Week 16 Update
By Jon Dove
San Francisco 49ers
1st Round, No. 2 overall- Tim Williams, Edge, Alabama
2nd Round, No. 34 overall- Luke Falk, QB, Washington State
3rd Round, No. 66 overall- Josh Reynolds, WR, Texas A&M
The San Francisco 49ers need help all over the roster. This is a team that doesn’t have a lot of game-changing talent. In fact, it’s hard to really find an exciting player on the roster outside of recent 1st round picks Arik Armstead and DeForest Buckner.
Alabama’s Tim Williams in an explosive athlete who routinely generates pressure on the quarterback. He’s also a threat to create turnover by stripping the football or forcing the quarterback to make a poor decision.
Luke Falk is an extremely underrated quarterback prospect and the No. 1 ranked quarterback on my board. He has a strong throwing arm, solid athleticism and ideal height. His ability to work through progressions despite playing in a spread offense makes him stand out.
Falk would fit nicely in Chip Kelly’s system because he has experience getting the ball out quickly.
Josh Reynolds is a long and explosive athlete who has a knack for making the acrobatic catches. He knows how to use his length to his advantage and will attack the ball at its highest point. Reynolds would be a nice weapon for any quarterback.
