Peacock says Louisville WR Chris Bell, coming off a November ACL tear, will slide out of the first round and likely be available around round two, while Texas Tech's Caleb Douglas is a day three pick who could interest the 49ers with one of their third/fourth-round picks.
“He's probably gonna be there around the second round.”
