49ers focus on almost every offensive position in 7-round mock draft

The San Francisco 49ers were one game away from winning the NFC West in 2025, but their offense fell flat against the vaunted Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 18 before they lost again in the NFC Divisional Round.

While general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan made some big changes to the offense during the 2026 offseason, there is still some work to be done in the draft. Mike Evans and Christian Kirk are nice additions, but the team lost two other key receivers in Kendrick Bourne and Jauan Jennings and likely won’t have tight end George Kittle for a portion of the year after he suffered an Achilles injury in the playoffs.

Therefore, CBS Sports’ Josh Edwards went with a very offensive-heavy approach in his new seven-round mock draft for the 49ers. Five of the 49ers’ six draft picks were on the offensive side of the ball across five different positions, too. The only defensive player selected was an edge rusher, which is also a need for the 49ers

Here is the breakdown of picks from CBS Sports’ newest seven-round mock draft:

Round 1, pick 27: KC Concepcion, WR, Texas A&M
