Draft analysts are finalizing their projections as the San Francisco 49ers are only four days away from selecting the 99th-overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
The team isn't expecting much action on Thursday, the first day of the draft, but is satisfied with the selections scheduled in the third through seventh rounds. General manager John Lynch shared that he is "optimistic" about the quality of depth in this year's incoming draft class and that the team is zeroing in on prospects that would be a good fit with the 49ers.
"You have to be incredibly thorough because you just don't know who might fall for whatever reason," Lynch said in a pre-draft press conference. "You just have to prepare for everything... We have priorities on what we've identified, but ultimately you want to take football players that are going to make your team, going to be around here for years to come and make you a better team."
