Each week leading to the draft, we'll look at a collection of mock drafts from various sources and compile the list of the top prospects projected to head to the 49ers.
We surveyed 68 online mock drafts this week and tallied which prospects are the most popular choices for the San Francisco 49ers, who currently own the No. 2 overall pick in next month's draft. The mock drafts include big-name sites like ESPN and NFL.com to smaller independent sites.
What is interesting about this week's round of scans is that of the 68 mock drafts reviewed, only three draft prospects were projected to San Francisco. Newly absent from the list this week is former Michigan defensive tackle Rashan Gary. Although, only one mock draft last week, an older one from Lance Zierlein of NFL.com, had Gary headed to the 49ers. He now has San Francisco landing former Ohio State defensive end Nick Bosa.
Bosa continues to dominate when it comes to predicting who the 49ers will select in the first round. Linebacker Josh Allen of Kentucky and defensive tackle Quinnen Williams of Alabama are nearly evenly split when it comes to second place.
Below are the top-ranked projections for the 49ers among the mock drafts we examined.
| Rank | 49ers' Pick |
| 47 Mock Drafts | Nick Bosa, Edge, Ohio State |
| 11 Mock Drafts | Josh Allen, Edge, Kentucky |
| 10 Mock Drafts | Quinnen Williams, DL, Alabama |
