As we inch closer to the 2023 NFL draft, I’m going to be conducting a series of interviews with a focus on draft prospects that have been tied to the 49ers through pre-draft meetings or official top 30 visits.

I will kick this series off by highlighting Minnesota defensive back Jordan Howden, who is currently scheduled to have a top 30 visit with the 49ers in Santa Clara.

Howden comes with an abundance of experience playing against power five competition, starting 49 of his 58 career games for the Golden Gophers. He is also extremely versatile, recording over 150 snaps at free safety, strong safety, and slot corner during the 2022 season.
