Let's go through the prime candidates the 49ers could potentially have interest in and available to them with the 27th pick. We'll keep this to two tiers. Tier 1 realistic expectations and Tier 2 surprise sliders:
Tier 1
Omar Cooper Jr. - Shanahan type of WR whose stock is sky high right now
Denzel Boston - X WR similar to Drake London who can go up and get it and is a redzone monster
KC Concepcion - Speedy WR Shanahan would likely have interest in.
Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah - Foerster might see a future LT in 2-3 years. Meanwhile he'd compete at LG.
Lee Hunter, DL, Texas Tech - Pass rush ceiling questions but the rest is all there.
Tier 2
Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona St. - Consensus #1 WR in the draft whose medicals hold his stock in the balance.
Peter Woods, DT, Clemson - Lack of length and inconsistencies could cause a slide.
Cassius Howell, Edge, Texas A&M - Short arms might give some teams pause.
Dillon Thieneman, S, Oregon - The only reason he might slide would be position value and two already taken in front of him.
