Round 1 - Trade pick #30 of round 1, and pick #30 of round 3, to Cincinnati for pick #24.
With pick #24 of the first round - Kyle Fuller - Cornerback, Virgina Tech - The 49ers currently have only Perrish Cox and Eric Wright to cover the slot, and neither is very good on the outside. With the selection of Fuller the 49ers have added a corner who can fit both roles and provide leverage in negations with Chris Culliver.
Round 2 - With pick #24 of the second round - Cody Latimer - Wide Receiver, Indiana - Latimer provides the 49ers with a receiver who is a threat to stretch the field, and good value late in round 2. According to John Pollard of stats.com, Latimer had the fifth most receptions against the top 50 ranked cornerbacks in 2013.
With pick #30 of the second round - Jeremiah Attaochu - Outside Linebacker, Georgia Tech - Ahmad Brooks has a large cap number coming up, and Attaochu combined with last years third round pick, Corey Lemonier will make it easier for the 49ers to move on from that contract.
Round 3 - With pick #13 of the third round - Kelcy Quarles - Defensive Tackle, South Carolina - Quarles provides a pass rushing defensive tackle who can take over for Ray McDonald in a year or two.
With pick #36 of the third round - C.J. Fiedorowicz - Tight End, Iowa - The 49ers use their first compensatory pick to grab a tight end that is a very good run blocker with surprising ability in the passing game.
Round 4 - With pick #29 of the fourth round - Craig Loston - Safety, LSU - The 49ers go back to LSU for to grab a safety for the second year in a row. Loston will reunite with Eric Reid, his backfield partner for the Tigers. Loston will initially provide depth for special teams while backing up Antoine Bethea.
Round 5 - With pick #30 of the fifth round - David Fales - Quarterback, San Jose State - The 49ers don't have to go far to grab a guy that they can develop to be a long term back up and stop the carousel behind Colin Kaepernick.
Round 7 - With pick #27 of the seventh round - Aaron Colvin - Cornerback, Oklahoma - Colvin was among the top ranked corners before injuring his knee during practice for the Senior Bowl. Colvin is the type of redshirt prospect that Trent Baalke likes to go after every year.
With pick #28 of the seventh round - Shaq Evans - Wide Receiver, UCLA - Evans has the potential to be a steal at the end of the draft. According to stats.com Evans had the third most receptions against top 50 cornerbacks in 2013. Evans also has measurables that are very close to those of Justin Blackmon and Jermaine Kearse.
With pick #30 of the seventh round - DeAnthony Thomas, RB, Oregon - The 49ers take a flyer at the end of the draft on Thomas, who brings with him the ability to return kicks along with being a slash type of player.
