The San Francisco 49ers have an abundance of draft assets going into the 2025 NFL draft, with four top-100 picks and a total of 11 selections. Their first-round pick at No. 11 will be critical in shaping their draft strategy. In the second round at pick No. 43, the 49ers have various promising day two prospects to choose from.
Pro Football Network suggests Michigan's defensive tackle Kenneth Grant as a potential pick for the 49ers in the second round. Grant, a disruptive force on the interior line, could address the 49ers' run defense issues and offer versatility as a pass rusher. His performance against top competition indicates he could make an immediate impact and provide value across all downs.
Standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing 331 pounds, Grant's impressive stats and accolades from his college career make him an attractive option for the 49ers to bolster their defense. With the departures of key interior linemen, Grant's skill set and potential impact could be a valuable addition to San Francisco's roster.
