Is receiver the most glaring need? That&#8217;s debatable, but the fit felt right &#8212; and like something the 49ers would do. They also could use an influx of athleticism on the O-line, and Farmer brings that as a quality run blocker and interesting project.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trade: 49ers get pick No. 23, Philadelphia Eagles get picks Nos. 27, 127, 133.<br \/>\nDenzel Boston &#8211; WR, Washington<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The 49ers are in a unique spot.

I&#8217;d expect the 49ers to use some of those picks while they jump around the first three rounds of the draft, either to move up early or as a package to get back into the third round. In this scenario, they&#8217;re trying to jump teams that are thinking about edge talents and wide receivers. The Eagles aren&#8217;t in the market for a wideout (yet), but the Browns, Bears and Bills could all at least look toward options at wide receiver&#8230; The 49ers could move up here for someone such as Washington receiver Denzel Boston, who could serve as a valuable YAC producer and eventual <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break: break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.49ers.com\/team\/players-roster\/mike-evans\/\" title=\"Mike Evans\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mike Evans<\/a> replacement on the outside in San Francisco.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>  <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break: break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/7172035\/2026\/04\/06\/nfl-mock-draft-2026-mendoza-raiders-three-rounds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Athletic: Nick Baumgardner<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Round 1: Kadyn Proctor &#8211; OT, Alabama<br \/>\nRound 2: Germie Bernard &#8211; WR, Alabama<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The most physically impressive human in this draft class, Proctor (6-7, 352) has rare body control for his size.
