5 Bold Predictions for the 49ers in 2015 NFL Draft

If history repeats itself, general manager Trent Baalke and the San Francisco 49ers will select a defensive back in Round 1 of the 2015 NFL draft.

After all, San Francisco has tabbed a D-back in the first round of each of the last two drafts (safety Eric Reid and defensive back Jimmie Ward). Suggesting Baalke will do so again may be a bold prediction. Or maybe it isn't. The 49ers could use some help at cornerback this year, and there is some top-tier talent available when the team is set to draft at No.
