Here is a 2022 NFL draft pick-by-pick breakdown for the San Francisco 49ers:

Round 2 (No. 61 overall) - Drake Jackson, LB/DE, USC: The Niners join the draft party and take the Trojans pass rusher. San Francisco values a deep group up front, but the 6-3 Jackson needs to figure out what his ideal playing weight is – 255? 275? – before he's able to serve as a nice change of pace opposite Nick Bosa.

Round 3 (93) - Ty Davis-Price, RB, LSU: At 6 feet, 211 pounds with 4.48 speed, he was a 1,000-yard rusher for the Tigers in 2021 and could slot in for RB2 duties for the Niners behind Elijah Mitchell with Raheem Mostert gone. Draft tracker

Round 3 (105, special compensatory) - Danny Gray, WR, SMU: At 6 feet, 186 pounds, he's no Deebo Samuel clone. But Gray's 4.3 speed could obviously add a new dimension to the Niners offense. Draft tracker

Round 5 (172) - Samuel Womack, CB, Toledo

Round 6 (187, from Broncos) - Nick Zakelj, OT, Fordham

Round 6 (220, compensatory) - Kalia Davis, DT, UCF
