Niners Add Former Pro Bowl Guard Beadles
Back in 2012, Zane Beadles was a Pro Bowl guard with the Denver Broncos. His future looked bright with a team that made him a second-round pick out of Utah in 2010.But Beadles, now 29, has had his ups and downs since.He struck it rich in free agency two years ago, signing a five-year, $30 million deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars – but then was released earlier this month with three years remaining on his contract. He went from Pro Bowler to overpriced and expendable for a Jaguars team that seems finally to be on the rise.But, he wasn't unemployed for long. Beadles, a 6-foot-4, 310-pounder, is reported to have agreed to terms with the 49ers on a three-year, $11.75 million deal. After playing left guard in Jacksonville, he'll likely slip into the left guard spot for the Niners that was vacated when Alex Boone signed with the Vikings.The 49ers still need more help on the offensive line – a weak link in 2015 – but Beadle brings experience and durability. In six NFL seasons he's only missed two starts, and those were in his rookie season of 2010 when he played both left guard and right tackle. He's played at left guard ever since.But reviews are mixed about Beadles'...

While most predict that the San Francisco 49ers will add an offensive lineman with their first selection, No. 31 overall, Mosher has the Bay Area team going in a different direction.
The writer and analyst has the Niners selecting former UCLA pass rusher Laiatu Latu in the first round.
"It wouldn't be a shock to see Laiatu Latu fall in the draft due to his medical history, but he is too good of a value to pass up here at No. 31," Mosher wrote. "The San Francisco 49ers have been searching for the right pass
