49ers 2025 NFL Draft Picks: Full List, Top-30 Visits and Strategic Insights Into San Francisco’s Draft Plans

San Francisco enters the 2025 NFL Draft with 11 picks and a clear focus on rebuilding in the trenches

After a stunningly disappointing 6-11 campaign in 2024, the San Francisco 49ers find themselves at a pivotal moment. A team that began the season favored in every matchup now stands at a crossroads, in need of a bold draft strategy to reignite its Super Bowl aspirations. With 11 selections in the 2025 NFL Draft — including a valuable No. 11 pick in the first round — the 49ers are armed with capital and intent.

They’ve already started laying the groundwork through a series of Top-30 visits, meetings that reflect both roster needs and future planning. From bolstering the defensive line to scouting tight end depth behind George Kittle, San Francisco’s draft board is taking shape.

What the Top-30 Visits Tell Us

San Francisco’s confirmed Top-30 visits provide a window into its priorities. These interviews allow coaches and executives to dive deeper — mentally, medically, and emotionally — into each prospect.

Defensive Line & Edge Rushers

• Walter Nolen (Ole Miss)

• Mykel Williams (Georgia)

• Shemar Stewart (Texas A&M)

• Omarr Norman-Lott (Tennessee)

• Tyleik Williams (Ohio State)

• Mike Green (Marshall)

• Landon Jackson (Arkansas)

Key Insight: With seven visits from defensive line prospects, it’s clear the 49ers are looking to reestablish dominance in the trenches. After struggling to generate consistent pressure last season, revamping the front four is a must.

Secondary

• Quincy Riley (Louisville)

• Cobee Bryant (Kansas)

• Andrew Mukuba (Texas)

Key Insight: Injuries and inconsistencies plagued the secondary in 2024. San Francisco is signaling a push to bring in young talent to complement veterans and provide long-term stability.

Tight Ends

• Jalin Conyers (Texas Tech)

• Harold Fannin Jr. (Bowling Green)

• Jackson Hawes (Georgia Tech)

Key Insight: The team may be planning ahead for life after George Kittle or simply looking to add weapons in two-TE sets. Either way, the depth chart at tight end is in the spotlight.

Offensive Line & Wide Receiver

• Kelvin Banks (Texas)

• Miles Frazier (LSU)

• Kyle Williams (Washington State)

Key Insight: Protecting the quarterback and stretching the field remain priorities. Banks and Frazier are Day 1-ready linemen who could slot into key roles, while Williams offers speed and playmaking ability outside.

Additional Evaluations

While not official Top-30 visits, the 49ers also held virtual meetings or private workouts with:

• BJ Adams, DB – UCF (Virtual)

• Branson Taylor, OT – Pittsburgh (Private Workout)

This shows a commitment to leaving no stone unturned, even outside the formal visit process.

A Draft That Will Shape the Future

With a deep draft class and glaring needs, this is a pivotal offseason for the 49ers. The Top-30 visits suggest a wide-ranging, methodical approach that prioritizes line play, secondary depth, and offensive efficiency. Whether they stay put at No. 11 or trade around the board, every pick in April will carry the weight of a franchise looking to rebound.

The rebuild in San Francisco isn’t just underway — it’s on the clock.
