“If Peters sticks to that GTFO rate, there are a few names to keep an eye on.
Mekhi Wingo of LSU led all defensive tackles in the 10-yard split (1.64 at 284 pounds) at the NFL Scouting Combine. Wingo, another team captain and Brugler’s ninth-rated DT, finished his final two seasons with the Tigers with 7 1/2 sacks and 11 1/2 tackles for loss in 22 games (20 starts). Wingo frequently gains an early lead because to his swift initial step and shock in his hands, according to Brugler.
In the 10-yard split, Colorado State defensive end Mohamed Kamara placed third (1.58), barely ahead of two “30” visit players, Chris Braswell and Jalyx Hunt, and behind expected first-round picks Chop Robinson and Dallas Turner. In 2023, the 248-pound Kamara stunned everyone with 13 sacks and 17 tackles for loss.
Kamara is expected in Rounds 4-5, and Wingo is expected to be selected in the first 70 to 95 choices.
When the 49ers select first overall, a number of offensive linemen will already be gone, but need is not the only factor in this decision.
Under the guidance of line coach Chris Foerster, Morgan possesses the necessary abilities to succeed in the 49ers’ attack. He possesses the tenacity and agility needed to perform his run game duties.
The sole uncertainty is to his long-term projection at guard or tackle. In college, he started 37 games at left tackle. Morgan has the chance to crack the starting lineup on Day 1 and will be expected to be a long-term starter.
