The 49ers drafted A.J. Jenkins late in the first round on Thursday night, a development that surprised even the Illinois wide receiver. Jenkins initially didn't believe it when San Francisco called him to let him know he was their selection. "I didn't know if they were joking or not because during the middle of the draft my cousin had called my phone, but he was playing with me. I thought it was another joke and it's just crazy," Jenkins said. "It was the 49ers. I was so lost for words. I was so out of words. I'm just like, wow, first round?" Jenkins said he had looked at mock drafts that had receivers like Rueben Randle and Stephen Hill going ahead of him, so he assumed he'd have to hear those names before he heard his own. "Yeah, that's been the speculation since the draft began," Jenkins said. "So, I just assumed watching the draft not really expecting to get called tonight honestly."
