Looking at the best available prospects for Day Two of the 2019 NFL Draft.
The first round of the 2019 NFL Draft is a wrap, and it went according to plan for the San Francisco 49ers. After Arizona selected Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray with the top pick, the 49ers drafted Ohio State edge rusher Nick Bosa with the second pick. There were rumbles things could go sideways, but that didn’t happen until the Oakland Raiders decided Clelin Ferrell was their guy at No. 4!
The second day of the draft gets going at 4 p.m. PT, and the 49ers hold two picks. They have the fourth pick (No. 36 overall) of the second round and the third pick (No. 67 overall) of the third round. They do not have a third round comp pick, so I don’t think anybody would be surprised if they were able to move down in either round to add some additional picks.
If they are unable to get a deal done, there is all sorts of talent available at the top of the second round. The team addressed a pressing need at edge rusher, and now have some flexibility. They have quite a few needs left to fill, but none is overly pressing over another. Here’s a look at the best players available at some positions of need. They are ranked according to Dan Kadar’s big board.
