The NFL handed out its compensatory draft picks on Tuesday. As expected, the San Francisco 49ers didn't receive any additional selections and still own six total picks in the 2020 NFL Draft.
San Francisco doesn't currently own a selection between the first and fifth rounds. The 49ers' first selection comes with the No. 31 overall pick, which many expect them to try to trade in order to gain more draft equity in later rounds.
The 49ers draft picks
The list below outlines which picks San Francisco currently owns (compensatory selections factored in) as of this post, per CBS Sports.
Round 1, Pick 31
Round 5, Pick 11, No. 156 overall (from Broncos)
Round 5, Pick 31, No. 176 overall
Round 6, Pick 31, No. 210 overall
Round 7, Pick 3, No. 217 overall (from Lions)
Round 7, Pick 31, No. 245 overall
Where did the Day 2 selections go?
The 49ers are without a second-round selection, thanks to a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs last offseason for pass rusher Dee Ford. The team also sent third- and fourth-round picks to the Denver Broncos for Emmanuel Sanders, but received a fifth-round selection in addition to the veteran wide receiver.
San Francisco's additional seventh-round selection comes courtesy of a trade that sent linebacker Eli Harold to the Detroit Lions in 2018.
When and where is the 2020 NFL Draft?
The 2020 NFL Draft is scheduled to take place between Thursday, April 23 and Saturday, April 25 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
