Morgan becomes first 49er pick to sign

The 49ers didn't allow receiver Josh Morgan to leave town without signing a contract. The sixth-round pick from Virginia Tech signed a four-year deal this afternoon following the final day of OTA practices. With the exception of first-round pick Kentwan Balmer, all of the 49ers' draft picks are expected to sign four-year deals.

As I wrote before, Morgan looked good in the May minicamp and in recent practices, showing a nice combination of size and athleticism. As a senior with the Hokies, Morgan led the team with 46 receptions while averaging 12 yards per catch with five touchdowns. Arnaz Battle's absence early in OTAs and Isaac Bruce's absence late in OTAs allowed Morgan to get plenty of reptitions and he caught Mike Nolan's eye on multiple occassions.
