The San Francisco 49ers are not the Juggernaut they were eleven – on their way to the NFL version of 2025, at least.
Their offsean has been ugly, headed by the departers of famous names: Debo Samuel, Charvarius Ward, Talanoa Hufanga, Dre Greenlaw, Javon Hargrave and Leonard Floyd, among other things. In total, the Niners continued from 17 players in the early low season. And it’s the news, no surprise. Their selection was older, Quarterback Brock Purdy stands in line for a HAGE contract and their 2024 season was great disappointment. It was time.
But that will put a lot of pressure on the success of this concept class. We are not used to seeing the 49ers design for need, but that is what they will do this year. Let’s look at their seven -round mock.
Round 1, no. 11 General: Will JohnsonCB, Michigan
If he is still on the board, Johnson is really a nice fit for the Niners. He is a large cornerback-6-foot-2 and 195 pounds and creates forms of similarities with Ward, who left for the Colts this season. ‘Competence. Johnson treated peat in his last college season, but he still Loks as one of the 10 best prospects in this design.
The Niners could try to exchange Missouri Right Tackle Armand Membou. And maybe they didn’t have to exchange: in his Mock Draft 2.0 Nick Wright Membou has number 11 to San Francisco. He was an incredible fit in the Kyle Shanahan attack. He is the best Runblocking-Tackle in the design and he has the athletics to improve the pass protection of San Francisco.

Trade! Round 1, no. 30 General: Gray ZabelOl, North Dakota State
Buffalo Bills Get: 43 (second round), 113 (fourth round), 160 (fifth round)
49ers get: 30
If the Niners Membo are missing, they should not be on Zabel. It is not entirely clear where he will contribute to the NFL. He played four of the five attacking line positions at the university. His arms measured 32 inch – just below the subjective threshold that teams want in a tackle at 33 inches. So San Francisco Coul is experimenting with the development of him at Tackle to replace Trent Williams when he withdraws. But more likely, they will start him on the guard, where he will be a donkey and a certain fire in the Shanahan attack.
Round 3, no. 75 General: Oluwafemi OladejoEdge, UCLA
The best Edge players in this class are light the type of player who likes 49 people. But not Oladejo. He is a big Doube: 6-foot-3 and 260 pounds. De Bruins moved him to Edge from the inside and explains that his lack of pocket production, with only 4.5 in 2024. But make no mistake: the move helped to create the inner in favor of Oladejo. So I can develop behind (and maybe replaced one day) Nick Bosa or Yeturur Gross-Matos.
Round 3, no. 100 General: Kyle WilliamsWR, Washington State
Williams would be a bit of a coup here. He is a great player who would fulfill a calm need in San Francisco. The 49ers exchanged Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk recovers from an ACL and MCL torn. There is hope that Ricky Pearsall, Jauan Jennings and Demarcus Robinson can help at the beginning of 2025, but there is still a lot of uncertainty from top to bottom in the recipient’s DEPT card.
The 5-foot-11, 190 pound Williams is much smaller than Samuel, but he is spectal with the ball in his hands in the same way. Williams has to work on his route running and catch consistency, but the 49 people would embrace Histectricity.
Round 4, no. 138 General: RJ MickensSafety, Clemson
Mickens did not always play as fast as he ran the 40-Yard Dash (4.49 seconds), so the first task of the 49 people would be to connect his top speed with his playing speed. That can be a process problem – or a trust problem. But the good news is that Mickens is not lacking in consistentity. He played 60 games at the university and was an impressive safety net in the passing and running game for the Tigers. I can be an IME of rotation player for the 49 people, who – even after signing multiple depth options for safety – may want more help.
Round 5, no. 147 General (from Washington to New Orleans): Logan BrownOT, Kansas
With Brown, the 49 people would get developmental equipment. I have a top athlete who has to make a potential. Perhaps Brown and Zabel will come to the book supports of the attacking line for the coming years. Maybe they are both on the left. Eithher Way, the 49 people would be happy to land two Olstarters in this design.
Round 7, no. 227 General: Ty RobinsonDT, Nebraska
The 49 people love their defensive tackles in at least 300 pounds, so Robinson is a bit of a twener on 288 pounds and 6-foot-5. But AE works problems to have when you lock a player of Robinson’s caliber and consistently. If you look at boys in round 7, you are looking for players who can easily make the schedule, often gravy in special teams. But there is a real shot that Robinson played with sufficient consistent and engine to crack the rotation – that Labeks quality (and depth) – is immediately.
Round 7, no. 249 General: Zah FrazierCB, UTSA
Frazier is a freak athlete that the team can make for fourth downs. And then it will be a matter of how much and how quickly he can develop into a defensive player.
Round 7, no. 252 General: Cam MillerQB, North Dakota State
That’s right: a QB from the state of North Dakota.
Let us not hold Trey Lance’s 49ers Tenure Agaless Miller.
Miller would end up with all Louzen in the practice team of the team where the 49 people could develop him. He is a bit of a purdy clone: Miller is smaller (6-foot, 215 pounds) and lacks arm power, but he is a good pocket compass Whoe Strength is accuracy. Moreover, he won 14 games last year while scored 45 touchdowns (33 passes, 12 hasting). Why not, right?
