FINAL WEEK DRAFT. TCU version.

R3. #87: Tucker Kraft, TE, SDSU. (SF trades #99, and a 2024 4th to Minn for #87) Admittedly one of my draft crushes so I kind of forced him a little bit here. 6'5", 255. Great athlete, lines up all over the field. Productive hands. Willing blocker in both run and passing game. Ran 4.69 so can move pretty good for 255.

R3. #101. Jaelyn Duncan, OT, Maryland. 6'6", 310. Four year starter at MD. Significant upside with his athletic ability and physical tools.

R3. #102. Isaiah McGuire, DE, Mizz. 6'4", 270. Good length and power to beat OTs. Quick initial burst. High motor player.

R5. #155. Trevius Hodges-Tomlinson, CB, TCU. 5'8" 180. Despite size plays all over the defensive backfield. Extremely experienced, playing over 2500 snaps for TCU. Allowed 48.1 QB rating against in 2022, for his career was 56.3. Super high football IQ.

R5. #173. Dee Winters, LB, TCU. 6'1" 230. Captain at TCU. IMO, the perfect replacement for Azeez. Excellent second-level defender. Converted defensive back. 4.49 speed, can play sideline to sideline and excels at run blitzes. (Draft crush #2)

R7. #222. Chamarri Collins, S, VT 6'0" 202. Smart, versatile safety with excellent ball skills. Can also play thenslot. 800 snaps on special teams at VT as well.

R7. #247. Deuce Vaughn, RB, KSU. 5'6" 176. 49ers have two hammers in Mason and TDP, the best all-around back in the NFL in CMC, and a quality yet oft-injured back up in Mitchell. Vaughn gives Kyle a Sproles-like RB to design plays around.

R7. #253. Max Dugan, QB, TCU, 6'1", 207. Why not. Played against top competition. Gritty competitor who can improvise and make plays when things break down. Willing to take off and make plays with his legs.

R7. #255. Hunter Luepke, FB, NDSU. 6'1" 236. Nobody drafts FBs anymore anyway, Kyle snags him to be groomed behind the best FB in the NFL.

UDFAs:
Jerome Carvin, IOL, TENN.
Jalen Wayne, WR, South Alabama
Grant Gibson, C, NCSU

Kraft is not someone the Niners should trade up for. If he fell to them, that would be OK. Rest of the picks are OK. Would rather have Freeland or Saldiveri at OT, but Duncan isn't the worst choice either. Tomlinson will not fall that far, but like the Winters and Conner (not Collins) picks. You're missing one fifth round pick, too.
