49ers 7-round mock draft: Can San Francisco find a Trent Williams successor?

The NFC West reigned supreme in the NFL last season with the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks and the NFC runner-up Los Angeles Rams. The San Francisco 49ers were one game away from winning the division over both of them. San Francisco weathered injuries to stars on defense, including Nick Bosa and Fred Warner , as well as starting quarterback Brock Purdy .

The 49ers stayed afloat with Mac Jones at quarterback, but eventually ran out of run in the divisional playoffs, which ended in a 41-6 loss to Seattle. San Francisco wasted little time making major changes this offseason. Multiple-time Pro Bowler Mike Evans signed a three-year deal to bolster the wide receiver room.

The 49ers sent their third-round pick to Dallas for defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa , a productive pass rusher on the interior, to help as recent draft picks develop. There are still some question marks entering another year under coach Kyle Shanahan and Purdy. Tight end George Kittle will spend the offseason recovering from an Achilles injury and left tackle Trent Williams may not return amid contract disputes with the franchise.

That makes this another crucial draft for the 49ers. They currently have six selections to work with in the 2026 NFL Draft and here’s how they could use them: GEORGE KITTLE INJURY UPDATE: 49ers TE gives latest on recovery process 2026 NFL DRAFT: Ranking the top 150 best players available San Francisco 49ers mock draft Round 1, No. 27 overall: OT Caleb Lomu, Utah San Francisco addressed a lot of needs on offense to avoid pigeonholing themselves in Round 1.
