Santa Clara – On the eve of his ninth NFL Draft as coach of the 49ers, Kyle Shanahan trusted his wife, Mandy, and his three children about Your ideal choice.
“I told them,” Mykel, but I don’t think it’s going to be there, “Shanahan told the media on Thursday night.” My wife calls me this morning and says he read a simulated draft in which he was going on 28 and was worried that we were badly wrong about everything. We had a good idea that I was going to Goarly. “
Defensive end Mykel Williams It was number 11 in general to a 49ers defense desperately looking for helpMore of which will come through the 10 row team selections the last two days of the draft.
General manager John Lynch confirmed that he was so anxious to chase Williams that he tried to change with an unidentified team, stating: “We tried and thanked God who touched someone else because he was still there.”
Only a defensive wing was among the top 10: Abdul Carter, to the New York giants in number 3 in general.
Williams became the second, for his delight after doing what he considers a sincere connection with the duration of the 49ers, a previous visit to the Draft of April 7.
“He has come to a visit and we really have an idea of the child and all that brought us an NIER,” said Lynch making every imaginable complimide on a first -round defensive wing. “Hello, it fits who we are and we pounce when he was there.”
Shanahan added: “We stay there and wait for our boy, and we have the guy we wanted.”
Williams was also a man wanted from the two men who will train him more directly: defensive coordinator Robert Saleh and defensive line coach Kris Kocurek, the latter, told Lynch that Williams was the best edgidor in university football last season. That element is key to a defense that gradually put on the race game last season, which leads to its end of 6-11.
“That is the premise and the distinctive seal in what we are because of a type of edge does it extremely well,” Lynch said. “Hello, he plays outside, he can enter the subtrules packages and run on the guards.”
The objective is now to shake Williams on a defensive front that is still anchored by Nick Bosa, but certainly needs another dynamic passes corridor.
Added Lynch: “He has a Lot of Upside. I have rush with power. WHANG A QUARTER, AND WHANG A QUARTER, AND WHANG A QUARTER, AND WHANG A QUARTER, AND WHANG TO QUARTER, AND WHANG A QUARTER, AND WHANG A QUARTER, AND WHANG TO QUARTER, AND WHANG A FOUR, AND WHAN Fourth, and Whatstre by quarter, and Whatstre a quarter obtained a quarter that obtained a quarter.
“It’s amazing when you see a boy the more you look at him, the better it will be,” said Shanahan. “When you see how its length and arms use, that does not jump from the tape immediately.
“When Nick was in the state of Atoio, you don’t appreciate it the first time you look at him, but the more you look, you realize how much Ninja is with the placement of the hand. This is how Mykel grows on you, I knew it is good.
Williams is vertiginous about the possibility of playing under Saleh and next to Bosa, among others.
“After my visit (April 7), I felt that we had a great connection. I connected well with all the staff. It was great,” Williams said. “We talked Ball, we toured the facilities. I finished here, so it’s a blessing.
“I am excited to play for coach Saleh and play in his scheme,” Williams added. “Let the front do what the front does, which is Rush, set the edges and play the race. I am excited to play with the great players that I will be as Nick Bosa. I can not wait.”
