Albert Breer's quote (cited by Harmon) notes that the 49ers were criticized for taking Ole Miss wide receiver Deebo Samuel at 33 overall, similar to the Stribling pick. Breer's point was that when fans have been looking at mocks for two months and their team makes someone perceived as a reach, it drives them crazy. However, Breer noted that some really good offensive coaches liked Samuel more than the public knew. Harmon uses this as a historical parallel to explain why Stribling, also perceived as a reach, may have been a coaches' favorite and could outperform draft expectations.
