<\/p>\nThe San Francisco 49ers will have a big board of their top players in the 2026 NFL draft. Who are the top 25 players that the team should hope to draft in the first two rounds?<\/p>\n
Best Round 1 Options for San Francisco 49ers\u00a01. Kadyn Proctor, OL, Alabama<\/p>\n
Proctor could start at guard and eventually swing to tackle.<\/p>\n
2. Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, S, Toledo\u00a0<\/p>\n
A day one starter at safety would be hard to pass.\u00a0<\/p>\n
3. TJ Parker, Edge, Clemson<\/p>\n
The best edge rusher with a chance to fall.<\/p>\n
4. Omar Cooper, WR, Indiana\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cooper rounds out the top four and is one of the four most likely to be taken before pick 27 on the list.\u00a0<\/p>\n

5. Malachi Lawrence, Edge, UCF<\/p>\n
Lawrence may be the most realistic option<\/a> at edge at pick 27.\u00a0<\/p>\n 6. KC Concepcion, WR, Texas A&M\u00a0<\/p>\n Concepcion may be the best option at receiver that falls to pick 27.\u00a0<\/p>\n 7. Chase Bistontis, LG, Texas A&M<\/p>\n If the 49ers want to plug-and-play a starter left guard<\/a>, they should look at Bisontis.<\/p>\n 8. Max Iheanachor, RT, Arizona State<\/p>\n This is a high upside swing, but would bring minimal year one impact.<\/p>\n 9. Keylan Rutledge, RG, Georgia Tech<\/p>\n Rutledge may be the nastiest player in the draft.<\/p>\n Chris Pietsch\/The Register-Guard \/ USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images<\/p>\n 10. Emmanuel Pregnon, LG, Oregon<\/p>\n Pregnon has the highest floor and lowest ceiling of the top three guard options.\u00a0<\/p>\n 11. Denzel Boston, WR, Washington<\/p>\n Boston could be the best player available, but profiles as a replacement to Mike Evans, not a year one contributor.\u00a0<\/p>\n 12. Caleb Lomu, LT, Utah<\/p>\n Lomu brings a lot of risk in round one<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n 13. Blake Miller, RT, Clemson\u00a0<\/p>\n Miller is a luxury pick and may not be a great fit.\u00a0<\/p>\n Round 2 Options\u00a0for San Francisco 49ers 14. R Mason Thomas, Edge, Oklahoma<\/p>\n The 49ers hope that Thomas falls<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n Maria Lysaker-Imagn Images<\/p>\n 15. Cashius Howell, Edge, Texas A&M<\/p>\n Howell in round 1 is too rich.<\/p>\n 16. Gabe Jacas, Edge, Illinois\u00a0<\/p>\n There are a lot of potential edge rusher options at pick 58.\u00a0<\/p>\n 17. AJ Haulcy, S, LSU<\/p>\n Haulcy is the best option for safety in round 2.<\/p>\n 18. Germie Bernard, WR, Alabama<\/p>\n Bernard is the best fit at wide receiver in round 2.\u00a0<\/p>\n 19. Dani Dennis-Sutton, Edge, Penn State<\/p>\n Another athletic edge rusher option.\u00a0<\/p>\n Junfu Han \/ USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images<\/p>\n 20. Dererick Moore, Edge, Michigan<\/p>\n Moore is inconsistent, but would fit in round 2.\u00a0<\/p>\n 21. Eli Stowers, TE, Vanderbilt\u00a0<\/p>\n Is Stowers lack of blocking worth it?<\/p>\n 22. Gennings Dunker, OL, Iowa<\/p>\n Dunker played right tackle but could slot into left guard.\u00a0<\/p>\n 23. Antonio Williams, WR, Clemson\u00a0<\/p>\n Williams could start in the slot right away.\u00a0<\/p>\n 24. Chris Bell, WR, Louisville<\/p>\n He draws Deebo Samuel comparisons, but is coming off an ACL tear.\u00a0<\/p>\n 25. Chris Brazzell, WR, Tennessee\u00a0<\/p>\n The 49ers brought in Brazzell for a pre-draft visit.<\/p>\n![\"49er\"](\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/01kpbwspnbh3c4qcxhvf.jpg\" "\\"49er\\"")
