49ers 2021 Pre-Draft Visit/Meeting Tracker
By Site Staff
Apr 6, 2021
This list will grow as the 2021 NFL Draft quickly approaches. The San Francisco 49ers have been meeting with potential draft selections, both virtually and in-person, since January. NFL teams are permitted to physically host only a limited number of prospects, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A vast majority of the interviews will be conducted virtually.
NFL teams will not hold local pro days due to the pandemic.
Below is a breakdown of the known meetings between draft prospects and 49ers representatives, as reported by various media sources. The representatives could be members of the coaching staff, front office, and/or team scouts. The 49ers' draft picks and scheduled interviews are listed first.
Dates (if known) of the meeting or workout are listed

According to NBC Sports Bay Area, the third representative will be quarterbacks coach Rich Scangarello, who also attended Fields' first workout on March 30 with 49ers assistant general manager Adam Peters.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media confirmed that report this morning.

Pelissero: Justin Fields and Trey Lance pro days to feature drills and throws from 49ers practices

Justin Fields of Ohio State will hold a second pro day workout on Wednesday. Five days later, Trey Lance of North Dakota State will take part in his second. Both are trying to ensure that they are selected ahead of Mac Jones of Alabama.
Trevor Lawrence of Clemson is expected to be drafted No. 1 overall. The New York Jets are expected to select Zach Wilson of BYU at No. 2. Assuming San Francisco targets a quarterback, that leaves Jones, Fields, and Lance as San Francisco's choices at No. 3.
