3 Winners and losers from the 49ers NFL Draft
The San Francisco 49ers haven’t exactly developed a pipeline of talent through the draft recently, leaving the foundation of their team in question in the coming years. Running back is a perfect example. They missed on picks in back-to-back seasons, then pulled the plug and said, “Enough of this, let’s go get an All-Pro.” There’s […]
Have the 49ers given a vote of confidence to Nick Martin in 2026?
Following the NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers have a new look to their linebacker room. Early in free agency, Dre Greenlaw returned to San Francisco to pair back up with Fred Warner. Dee Winters started next to Warner last season and performed admirably before a late-season decline, which was partly due to an injury. […]
49ers free agent WR Jauan Jennings is set to visit the Vikings this week
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that San Francisco 49ers free agent wide receiver Jauan Jennings is set to visit the Minnesota Vikings on Monday and Wednesday. This comes after the Miami Dolphins reportedly had interest in Jennings’ services. The Vikings would be a great fit for Jennings. Minnesota just exercised Jordan Addison’s fifth-year option. Addison had […]
49ers WR De’Zhaun Stribling was ranked higher than Makai Lemon by an NFL team
Long-time NFL and draft evaluator Greg Cossell was a fan of the first pick the San Francisco 49ers made in the draft. Cossell’s bottom line for De’Zhaun Stribling was, “I loved his tape.” More and more draft analysts acknowledge the 49ers reached for players earlier in this draft, but also admitted the team added good […]
The 49ers don’t have many options in the veteran safety market
The San Francisco 49ers did not add a safety during the NFL Draft. During his post-draft presser, general manager John Lynch said: “As for not drafting a safety, there were some guys that came off and, look, this thing’s still going on, we’ve got some free agents and all that. We’ve got a group that […]
Former 49ers WR Jauan Jennings appears to be overpricing his value
It wasn’t a surprise to see former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings not sign during the first wave of free agency. He felt like a player who would sign toward the end of the week, if not over the weekend. Here we are, more than a month and a half since the start […]
49ers News: The 49ers are Sincere about next season
49ers reportedly sign veteran RB Sincere McCormick“McCormick’s only career regular-season production came in 2024 with the Raiders, when he appeared in five games. He totaled 183 rushing yards on 39 carries (4.7 yards per attempt) and added six receptions for 29 yards.” Breaking down 49ers’ undrafted rookies: Intriguing pass rusher, punter with a shot (paywall)“Kamara […]
Evaluating the 49ers Day 3 draft picks: Are the concerns overblown?
There was a lot of discussion this weekend on the San Francisco 49ers and their 2025 draft class, as the organization deviated quite a bit from the consensus draft boards with a couple of selections. Overall, San Francisco ended up being quite busy with the trade market, moving down a couple of times while also […]
The 49ers injected much-needed athleticism onto the roster this draft
We may have jumped the shark when it comes to talking about reaches in the NFL Draft. For the 12th year in a row, the Raiders, Browns, and Giants “won” the draft. Perhaps 2026 is the year those drafts come to fruition in the win column. We shall see. When you watch the San Francisco […]
The NFL was reportedly higher on 49ers’ De’Zhaun Stribling ‘more than the public knows’
The topics surrounding the San Francisco 49ers have been less about the players they selected and more about whether those players would have been available at their next picks. On the one hand, we say the draft is a crapshoot, and you never know what to expect. On the other hand, based on mock drafts, […]

Kyle Shanahan says the 49ers drafted Kaelon Black because ‘You need to have more than one starter’
Many figured the San Francisco 49ers would draft a running back at some point after losing Brian Robinson Jr. in free agency. Christian McCaffrey was the bell cow last season. After leading the NFL in touches in 2023 and 2025, the odds are against McCaffrey to make it through another season fully healthy. The 49ers […]
49ers go d-line in the 1st round of a way too early 2027 mock draft
The 2026 NFL Draft is in the books. We’ll spend the next couple of weeks breaking down the San Francisco 49ers’ selections. Before we do that, let’s look at one last mock draft round-up. This one is for next season. As usual, most projections believed the 49ers would select a replacement for Trent Williams. One […]

Nguyen: NFL Draft’s 10 best scheme fits: Giants, Cowboys, Bucs among teams picking perfect pieces (paywall)“I thought Stribling would be a perfect fit for the 49ers because of his ability to run after the catch, and he’s the best blocking receiver in the draft, both skills that former 49er Jauan Jennings was adept at.

Keion White trade results: 49ers pick gets traded multiple times
The San Francisco 49ers had one major move near the trade deadline last season, acquiring Keion White from the New England Patriots for a 2026 sixth-round pick. It was a move made for both the present and the future, as White is under contract for the 2026 season. But it also depleted the 49ers’ draft […]

49ers UDFA tracker 2026: Another wide receiver has been signed
The 2026 NFL Draft is a wrap. Now it’s time to see what the 49ers will fill the remaining spots in their roster with.

The San Francisco 49ers selected offensive tackle Enrique Cruz from Kansas. Cruz was the Jawyhawks’ right tackle in 2025. He played at Syracuse during his first three years.
