49ers Snag Stribling in 2nd Round

0:00On April 24th, the San Francisco 49ers just locked in their first pick of the 2026 NFL draft, grabbing wide receiver Day-Jean, struggling at number 33 in the second round. They maneuvered smartly with a couple of trades earlier in the night to slide back and snack him right there. Stribbling balled out last season at Ole Miss, with 55 catches, 811 yards and 6 touchdowns capping a journey that took him. From Oklahoma State to Washington State, before landing in Oxford, the Niners are stacking their receiver room deep, bringing in bets like Mike Evans and Christian Kirk during free agency while Ricky Peersaw Gears, up for his last year. Brandon Ayukh still on the roster for now, but the team signaling he's headed off the depth chart soon, so this pick keeps their options flowing, strong into the future.
