Some fans wonder what draft picks the 49ers currently own in the upcoming draft. After all, they are still without a first-round pick due to the trade in 2021 to select quarterback Trey Lance. In October, San Francisco sent a package of draft picks, including second-, third-, and fourth-rounders this year, to the Carolina Panthers for running back Christian McCaffrey.
So what's left? Quite a bit, it seems, when you factor in the selections expected to be awarded for players that departed the 49ers last offseason.
Here are the non-compensatory picks the 49ers own:
- Round 5
- Round 5 (Dolphins via Jeff Wilson Jr. trade)
- Round 7
- Round 7 (Broncos via Jonas Griffith trade)
- Round 3 (Robert Saleh/Martin Mayhew HC/GM hires)
- Round 3 (Mike McDaniel HC hire)
- Round 3 (Ran Carthon GM hire)
- Round 5 (D.J. Jones to Broncos)
- Round 6 (Arden Key to Jaguars)
Round 7 (Raheem Mostert to Dolphins)offset by Oren Burks signing- Round 7 (K'Waun Williams to Broncos)
That's 10 total draft picks that are expected for the 49ers.

How might defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans' potential departure impact the draft pick list? Matt Barrows of The Athletic breaks it down below.
If Carthon and Ryans are hired in the current cycle, it would mean one third-round comp in 2023, 2024 and 2025.

If it's Carthon this year and Ryans next year, it's four total picks:
Two third-round picks for Carthon: 2023, 2024
Two-third-round picks for Ryans: 2024, 2025 https://t.co/TuQL1kPaUI
