The Cardinals are facing a lot of criticism for drafting Love but in the past the Cardinals passed on Adrian Peterson for Levi Brown and also passed on players such as Charles Woodson or Randy Moss in favor of Andre Wadsworth in 1998. One thing drafting no name college players also doesn't work out either.
Love was easily one of the best players in college football in the last 2 years he has can easily break for a long distance touchdown. They were also criticized for taking Carson Beck but they actually got him in the third round when they could have drafted him in the second round (no QB was taken by any team in the second round) but they drafted a guard and still got a QB. They really needed a QB with the release of Kyler Murray. Brissett is a career backup that happened to get a lot of playing time plus the stats that comes with throwing the ball 50 times in a game.
There are actually some fans and analysts that wanted to tank for another year and draft a QB next year. I can't support a franchise like that but this recent draft shows me the GM is actually trying.
I'm sure the 49ers got a good player. Denzel Boston is also a good player himself.
