The 49ers selected Deebo Samuel with the No. 36 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft on Friday, changing the former South Carolina wide receiver's life forever.

Samuel was surrounded by family and friends when he received the great news, and, well, it was an emotional moment for obvious reasons.

Samuel bolsters the 49ers' passing attack after San Francisco addressed its defense with the selection of edge rusher Nick Bosa at No. 2 overall.
