The 49ers selected Driskel in the sixth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, 207th overall.

Driskel couldn't read a defense or complete many downfield passes as a former top recruit at Florida, but he had a great season for Louisiana Tech in 2015 as a graduate transfer. Driskel has a big frame (6-foot-4, 236 pounds) and great athleticism (4.56-second 40), so he's an interesting project for Chip Kelly. Although Driskel has his obvious flaws, what isn't obvious is why he should go later than Christian Hackenberg, who the Jets selected in the second round.
