49ers IGNORED Patrick Mahomes in 2017 NFL Draft as they planned to sign Kirk Cousins – before a stunning sequence of events left them with the seventh round pick that gave them Brock Purdy, claims NFL reporter

However, while the 49ers didn’t study up on Mahomes prior to the draft, they reportedly did ‘extensive work’ on C.J. Beathard, who they would end up taking in the third round.

And when the quarterback signed with the Jaguars four years later, the 49ers received a compensatory seventh-round pick – the last pick of the entire draft -which they used to select Purdy ahead of the 2022 season.hile the Iowa State product began that year third on the depth chart, he was thrust into action after injuries to Garoppolo and initial starter Trey Lance.

From there, Purdy hasn’t looked back, as he won his first seven games under center last year before tossing 4,280 yards and 31 touchdowns this season.

Ultimately, the 49ers just couldn’t get past the Chiefs in this year’s Super Bowl, as Mahomes led a 13-play, 75-yard touchdown drive to win the game in overtime.

 

The 49ers may regret their decision to pass on the three-time champion – who fell to 10th overall in the draft – but they found a quality player in Purdy nonetheless.
