Show Notes

The San Francisco Forty-Niners, after a challenging 2025 season, head into the 2026 NFL Draft with significant questions at wide receiver, guard, and secondary. Pro Football Focus mock draft focuses on reinforcing the trenches, enhancing defensive flexibility, and bolstering depth around quarterback Brock Purdy. The draft begins with offensive lineman Olaivavega Ioane from Penn State and continues with cornerback Chris Johnson from San Diego State. Later rounds bring safety Zakee Wheatley, tight end Josh Cuevas, running back Le’Veon Moss, another safety in Michael Taaffe, and offensive lineman Kobe Baynes. This strategy aims to build a sustainable roster that protects Purdy, strengthens the defense, and adds scheme-friendly pieces without chasing headlines, setting the Forty-Niners up for a steady rebuild.
