The San Francisco 49ers are deep into their draft preparations, having met with a slew of prospects that could practically form an entire team. The challenge, as always, is figuring out which meetings are truly significant. It's easy to get lost in the weeds, considering some interactions might just be routine scouting.
According to CBS Sports, the 49ers have hosted six top-30 visits, with a strong focus on wide receivers:
- OT Travis Burke from Memphis
- WR Omar Cooper Jr. from Indiana
- EDGE Romello Height from Texas Tech
- WR Denzel Boston from Washington
- WR Jordan Hudson from SMU
- WR KC Concepcion from Texas Tech
Travis Burke, a towering presence at 6'8 ¾” and 325 pounds, is expected to go undrafted. He anchored the right tackle spot for Memphis in 2025, having previously held down the left side for three seasons.
Jordan Hudson, another potential undrafted talent, turned heads with a 4.48-second 40-yard dash at SMU’s Pro Day. His standout year was 2025, where he notched 63 catches for 785 yards, surpassing his combined totals from the two prior seasons.
Romello Height, coming off a stellar defensive campaign, is ranked 82nd overall. While his physical stats-6'3” and 239 pounds-might not scream dominance, his performance metrics do.
Height's 40-yard dash and broad jump are both impressive, showcasing his explosive athleticism. He’s a relentless force on the field, drawing comparisons to Bryce Huff.
With 9.5 sacks, 35 QB hits, and a staggering 59 pressures last season, his production could be a great fit for the 49ers later in the draft.
The trio of Cooper Jr., Boston, and Concepcion are all projected first-rounders. Denzel Boston stands out, offering versatility and the ability to create opportunities at every level. While he may not have blazing speed, his all-around game is compelling.
KC Concepcion, on the other hand, dazzles with his speed and surprising route-running skills. However, his struggle with drops raises questions about his ability to handle physical play at the next level.
Omar Cooper Jr. often draws comparisons to Deebo Samuel, but there are notable differences. Deebo’s athleticism, particularly his vertical leap and agility, set him apart.
Cooper Jr. didn’t participate in some key drills, which might suggest concerns about his timing. While he shows promise, especially in open-field scenarios, his first-round buzz might be a bit premature.
As the draft approaches, the 49ers have plenty to consider, with each prospect offering a unique set of skills that could bolster their roster.
