The 49ers made their second trade of the NFL draft during the third round when they sent a pair of fourth-round choices to the Rams in exchange for the 88th overall choice.
Here’s an updated look at their picks with Day 3 of the draft looming:
Round 1, Pick 3 [QB Trey Lance, North Dakota State]
Round 2, Pick 48 [OL Aaron Bank, Notre Dame]
Round 3, Pick 88 [RB Trey Sermon, Ohio State]
Round 3, Pick 102 (Compensatory)
Round 5, Pick 155
Round 5, Pick 172 (via New Orleans)
Round 5, Pick 180 (Compensatory)
Round 6, Pick 193
It wouldn’t be a surprise to see the 49ers maybe move up again early on Day 3 using their trio of fifth-round choices.
They went into the draft with nine selections, but their free agency class diminished some of their need to replenish the roster with draft choices. After the Rams trade they have eight picks and they may not need that many.
