- Jalon Walker – EDGE, Georgia
“The Niners need help on the edge and at linebacker. Enter Walker, who is big enough and athletic enough to do a little bit of everything. The versatility to play off-ball and up front is coveted, and I’d bet Robert Saleh could find some fun ways to deploy him.”
- Armand Membou – T, Missouri
“A road-grading right tackle, Membou dominated in his final college season with a 90.6 PFF overall grade. He excelled in pass protection, earning an 82.2 PFF pass-blocking grade on true pass sets and an 87.4 zone PFF pass-blocking grade. Membou’s range on reach blocks is exceptional and should fit Kyle Shanahan’s varied run scheme.”
- Josh Simmons – OT, Ohio State
“The 49ers are in a great spot to invest in the trenches early in the 2025 NFL Draft.”
- Will Campbell – OL, LSU
“Dominick Puni was a great find in the third round last year, but the 49ers need to throw resources at this position. Will Campbell is a powerful offensive lineman, who plays with an edge and has the strike power to end reps immediately on first contact.”
- Tyler Booker – OG, Alabama
“In a bit of a surprise move, the 49ers use the 11th pick on Tyler Booker, bolstering the interior offensive line with a powerful, stout guard. While his hand placement needs refinement and he isn’t elite in space, his strength, flexibility, and length make him a compelling first-round investment.”
- Walter Nolen – DL, Ole Miss
“The 49ers take the best player available in Walter Nolen, who has the potential to reach double-digit sacks from the interior defensive line. With this pick, expect the 49ers to also consider a cornerback, maybe even surprise with a tight end, but the smart move for them might be to take someone on the defensive line or off the edge…”
