Dream prospects that could fall to 49ers in draft

These players probably won’t fall that far in the NFL draft, but the 49ers would sprint to the podium if they do.

Cornerback may not top the 49ers’ list of needs in this year’s draft, but it’s certainly on there. They have enough talent at that spot that they can afford to wait until after the first round to find one, but there’s no passing up on Okudah if he somehow lands outside the top 10. The Ohio State product is a well-refined prospect with all the tools to be a Day 1 NFL starter. He’d immediately top the 49ers’ depth chart ahead of Emmanuel Moseley and Ahkello Witherspoon.

Okudah is projected to go No. 3 to the Lions in Draft Wire’s latest mock.
