With the NFL draft coming ever closer, we took a final look at some of the prospects we’ve watched and discussed the most to come up with a list of five players we think are most likely to be drafted by the 49ers.

This is based some on reports, but a lot of it is based on fit, need, and where how we think the 49ers will utilize their selections.

No surprise here. The 49ers by all accounts badly want Bosa, and the Cardinals by all accounts are going to pass on taking him No. 1 overall. If the former Buckeye does slip out of the top slot, we expect the 49ers to sprint to the podium to select him.
