Whether your team is picking No. 1 overall in the NFL Draft, or you have the 31st pick — like the San Francisco 49ers — it often feels like your team’s scouting department is bunkered up in the war room, waiting for the night of April 23rd with a dart in their hand, and looking at a board filled with faces of Mel Kiper’s first-round draft prospects.
While yes, if there’s anything certain about draft night, it is that nothing is certain (outside of maybe Roger Goodell being booed). But, I think it’s worthwhile to look at who the 49ers may have the chance to grab, and should definitely take with the 31st pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
