49ers Pick in Mock Drafts: Jared Goff still leads while Myles Jack returns to top 3
Mar 30, 2016 at 1:33 PM
•
Cal QB Jared Goff, who the
San Francisco 49ers are working out today in Berkeley along with several Cal wide receivers, remains the team's overwhelming projected pick among mock drafts in next month's NFL Draft. Goff has led our survey, now consisting of 100 mock drafts, for three weeks straight and has been the favorite projection for the 49ers' seventh overall selection for much longer than that. Although, his percentage has dropped slightly from 57.9 percent to 55 percent.
The top two players
remain the same as last week, with the majority of mocks having the 49ers selecting Goff and
North Dakota State QB Carson Wentz coming in a distant second.
UCLA OLB Myles Jack returns to the top three after being pushed out last week. This time, he shares the number three spot with
Ohio State DE Joey Bosa.
Quarterbacks make up 79 percent of the projections for the 49ers, a slight drop from 83 percent last week.
Why even report data from mock drafts other than to see where analysts and the media see players going? Last year, an overwhelming percentage of them had the 49ers taking
Arik Armstead out of Oregon with their first round selection. While that actually happened, they were able to do so after trading down a few spots.

PFF prefers Justin Fields but still predicts Mac Jones to 49ers in mock draft
By David Bonilla
Apr 9, 2021
Add yet another mock draft to the pile of those that have the San Francisco 49ers selecting former Alabama quarterback Mac Jones with the No. 3 overall pick over Justin Fields of Ohio State and Trey Lance of North Dakota State. Andrew Erickson of Pro Football Focus has head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch following the narrative created by Chris Simms, Adam Schefter, Daniel Jeremiah, and other national analysts.
That doesn't mean Erickson sees Jones as the better prospect. The projection is just based on what is being heard around the league — not that anyone can say with any certainty what the 49ers plan to do.
"Although I personally don't agree with the selection — Justin Fields would be the better option — Jones still
Jeremiah on 49ers' pick in latest mock draft: 'I am surprised that everything you hear points toward Jones'

With so many smokescreens and teams keeping their strategies close to the vest, it's tough to believe anything you hear when it comes to pre-draft rumors and speculation. Everyone in the media feels the San Francisco 49ers traded up to the No. 3 spot for Alabama quarterback Mac Jones, whether they can make sense of it or not.
Much of that is based on what they hear from around the league. Their colleagues and other teams feel Jones might be the pick, despite the overwhelming opinion that the selection would be a reach.
NFL Media analyst Bucky Brooks doesn't even view Jones as worthy of a first-round pick, much less No. 3 overall.
"Perhaps the Alabama quarterback is a secret member of The Avengers, operating like Tony Stark as Iron Man,"
Mock Draft Roundup: It's Fields vs. Jones for the 49ers' top pick

The 2021 NFL Draft is a three-day event from April 29th to May 1st that will be hosted in Cleveland, Ohio. A select number of draft prospects will be invited to Cleveland to walk across the stage and shake hands with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. The NFL Draft will also feature draft prospects participating remotely across the country.
Last month, the 49ers arguably made their most aggressive move since trading Joe Montana, as they gave up multiple picks to jump from No. 12 to No. 3 in this year's NFL Draft. The first Mock Draft Roundup I compiled of analysts' projected picks for San Francisco featured primarily defensive players, but NFL pundits have now
Why PFF sees QB Justin Fields as a 49ers fit in latest mock draft

Pro Football Focus released its latest mock draft, courtesy of analyst Ben Linsey. The San Francisco 49ers are highly anticipated to select a quarterback following their recent trade up to the No. 3 spot. They'll have their choice of some good options. With Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson nearly a lock to go No. 1 and No. 2, San Francisco can go with Justin Fields of Ohio State, Trey Lance of North Dakota State, or Mac Jones of Alabama.
Linsey has San Francisco going with the player who has been the popular choice among 49ers fans—Fields.
"Fields' game has been put under the
