49ers pick Georgia edge rusher Mykel Williams at No. 11 in 2025 NFL Draft

The 49ers made the move during Thursday night's 2025 NFL Draft to bolster their defensive line and get a young, talented player who can complement edge rusher Nick Bosa.That move is long overdue, as the 49ers have mostly concentrated on adding players at other positions over the past five years.The 49ers remained at No. 11 overall and selected Georgia edge rusher Mykel Williams, who registered 14 sacks over his three college football seasons. With the No. 11 overall pick in the 2025 @NFLDraft, the @49ers select Mykel Williams. @NewEraCap : #NFLDraft on NFLN/ESPN/ABC: Stream on @NFLPlus pic.twitter.com/FJ8ohkvpx5 — NFL (@NFL) April 25, 2025 The 49ers have not added an impactful defensive end in the draft since Bosa was the No. 2 overall selection in 2019.From 2015 to 2020, the 49ers selected defensive linemen five times in the first round: Arik Armstead, DeForest Buckner, Solomon Thomas, Bosa and Javon Kinlaw.The only defensive linemen chosen within the first 10 selections were Abdul Carter to the New York Giants at No. 3 and Mason Graham to Cleveland at No. 5.The top part of the draft set up nicely for the 49ers to get their guy.Williams was the 49ers' choice on Thursday night...
