5 potential targets at pick No. 31: Will a run on offensive lineman force the 49ers to reach for one?

Photo by Justin Casterline/ Will the Niners take the best player available or address a need? The 49ers' needs in this draft are tackle, edge, cornerback, wide receiver, and tight end. Simply put, the offensive line is the biggest priority, given how it performed down the stretch and in the Super Bowl, in particular. Here are five potential targets at pick 31 for the 49ers: Jordan Morgan, OT, Arizona The 6’5” offensive tackle played left tackle in Arizona but would likely start at right tackle for the 49ers before taking over for Trent Williams. Morgan sparkled at...

49ers draft another running back in the 3rd round in latest 3-round mock draft

49ers draft another running back in the 3rd round in latest 3-round mock draft

Photo by Kevin Sabitus/ It’s an all offensive draft It’s not quite a consensus pick, but Graham Barton out of Duke has been the player mocked to the San Francisco 49ers at the end of round 1 routinely. That didn’t change in Bleacher Reports post NFL Combine mock: “The 49ers can get by with middling offensive linemen apart from Trent Williams,” Thorn said, “but their right side became an issue down the stretch, and even center is due for an upgrade. “Barton could feasibly play any of the five positions, though he’s best suited inside, so either center or...

PFF lists the best-case scenario pick for the 49ers in the 1st round

PFF lists the best-case scenario pick for the 49ers in the 1st round

Photo by David Jensen/Icon Sportswire via It’s an offensive lineman We haven’t yet reached the portion of the NFL Combine where the offensive linemen have participated. That’ll be at the beginning of next week. Once that happens, we’ll have a better idea about who the San Francisco 49ers have met with. It’s a foregone conclusion that the Niners will draft at least one offensive lineman in the NFL Draft. Trent Williams and Aaron Banks are locked in as starters. The team could save $4 million this season, 3.7 million in 2025, and $4.2 million in 2026 — when...

Matt Miller discusses his selection for the 49ers at pick No. 31

Matt Miller discusses his selection for the 49ers at pick No. 31

Photo by Chris Coduto/ That’s right, the 49ers have a first-round pick. Will they have 2? Draft season is fully underway as mock drafts are flying. I had a chance to catch up with Matt Miller, draft analyst for ESPN, to discuss his latest mock draft, the pick for the 49ers at 31, and the possibility of Brandon Aiyuk being traded on draft day. So, obviously, the biggest thing that the 49ers need to address, I think, at this point is the line, and you have Jordan Morgan (OT, Arizona) going 31st. Trent Williams has a year or two left, depending on who you talk to. Do...
