NFL Draft 2020: Kendrick Bourne hopes 49ers pick receiver Henry Ruggs

All signs point to the 49ers utilizing the No. 13 overall pick in Thursday’s first round of the 2020 NFL Draft to select a wide receiver. But who will San Francisco select from arguably the deepest class of wideouts in the event’s history?

Kendrick Bourne knows who he wants to join him in the positional meetings next year, as he indicated on social media Thursday.

Ruggs III might be the quickest of the top-of-the-line receiver prospects in this draft, and NBC Sports NFL analyst Chris Simms thinks Ruggs would make a great fit in coach Kyle Shanahan’s offense.

Whether it’s Ruggs or another of this year’s elite wideouts, Bourne knows he’ll likely have a new teammate at the position by the end of Thursday.
