Niners Trade Down, Snag Versatile WR Concepcion

0:00It's March 31st. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. The San Francisco 49ers sit at the 27th pick in the draft, with no big holes to fill right now. They could grab the best guy on the board, chase a specific talent, or even trade back for extra picks. In a fresh mock draft from Fox Sports analyst Rob Ring, they slide two spots down to 29 by dealing with the Kansas City Chiefs. That trade lets the Chief Snack San Diego State Corner at Chris Johnson at 27, while the 49ers scoop up Texas A&M Y receiver KC, concepts the own at 29. They likely pocket Kansas City's 5th rounder at pick 148 too, stacking five selections close together on day 3. Fans and analysts love this fit, because concepts the own brings that explosive, do it all vibe, the Niners crave. He's like Rashid Shaheed, who lit it up for Seattle last year. A threat catching passes, running routes, and returning punts. With Vets Mike Evans and Christian Kirk, now aboard but aging in injury prone, he adds insurance and a fresh spark.

1:06Over three college seasons, concepts the own hauled in 185 catches for 2218 yards and 25. Touchdowns. He also returned 25 punts for 456 yards and two scores. That's the kind of firepower to pair perfectly with Ricky Peersol. This mock shows how smart a small slide back can be, landing a versatile weapon without forcing a reach. The Niners stay loaded and ready to roll into the draft.
