49ers' Trent Taylor: San Francisco bound

The 49ers selected Taylor in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft, 177th overall.

Analysis:

Though Carlos Henderson got most of the buzz coming out of Louisiana Tech's receiving corps, Taylor's production is nothing to scoff at. Taylor checks in at just 5-foot-8 and 181 pounds, but he had some of the best receiving numbers in the nation over his final two seasons. He followed up a 99-catch campaign in 2015 with a whopping 136 grabs on 176 targets as a senior. Louisiana Tech primarily used him on short and intermediate routes, and he'll likely fill a similar role at the next level. Taylor may not have the flashy athleticism to generate much buzz, but he has the reliable hands and crisp route running ability to potentially develop into a No. 3 receiver.
