The tight end group in the 2023 NFL draft is one of the deepest classes in years. Several players vaulted up draft boards following the combine. Dalton Kincaid (Utah), Darnell Washington (Georgia), Michael Mayer (Notre Dame), Luke Musgrave (Oregon State), and Tucker Kraft (South Dakota State) are all primed to leave by the end of the second round.
The 49ers met with nearly every tight end, formally or informally, at the NFL Combine. With Tyler Kroft and Ross Dwelley set to depart in free agency, the 49ers have Charlie Woerner, a blocking specialist, and George Kittle on the roster.
