Early 49ers 2027 Mock Draft Reveals What Their Biggest Priority Should Be

A new early 2027 mock draft centers on the San Francisco 49ers and points to one clear offseason priority: investing a first-round pick in offensive tackle. The article argues that this year’s selections left notable gaps, with some picks widely viewed as reaches, though it notes it’s too soon to judge. ESPN’s Jordan Reid projects the 49ers selecting Niki Prongos at No. 28, highlighting his size—6-foot-7, 315 pounds—and upside as a work in progress. With Trent Williams set to turn 39 before next season and reportedly suggesting a potential final contract restructure, the 49ers may need a successor sooner rather than later.
