We put together ten total mock drafts
The 2020 NFL draft will go on as scheduled, and we’re 24 days away. Instead of randomly selecting mock drafts for the San Francisco 49ers, I’ll just bring them all in one spot, and we’ll see who the most popular selections for the Niners are.
SB Nation’s Dan Kadar – CB C.J. Henderson, Florida | WR Tee Higgins, Clemson, WR
There has been talk since the NFL Scouting Combine that Henderson would be a top-15 pick. Now that the 49ers hold the 13th selection, they could be the team to make that come true. After this season, defensive backs Richard Sherman, Jaquiski Tartt, K’Wuan Williams and Ahkello Witherspoon are all unrestricted free agents. That could lead the 49ers to future-proofing their defense with a player like Henderson.
The 49ers swung and missed on Dante Pettis, their second-round pick in the 2018 draft. They swung and hit a home run in the second round last year with Deebo Samuel. In this loaded class of wide receivers, the 49ers could take one more swing with a big receiver like Higgins. He’s a good outside target who will go up and get the ball. He’s not the fastest wide receiver, but the 49ers have plenty of speed.
