You can bet on who the San Francisco 49ers pick in the 1st Round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Nick Newman of SI.com suggests he would be the best fit for the San Francisco 49ers.
He notes that the defensive line is missing a speed-to-power pass rusher, they lack a pass rushing defense, and this is a weak edge class.
“Chase Young is clearly on his own tier as the top pass rusher in the draft. Next up is Chaisson. After Chaisson there are not many pass rushers who exhibit the same combination of size, speed and power. As it stands, the 49ers have a strong defensive line, but they could really take their line to the next level by drafting Chaisson."
The 49ers are favored to pick an offensive player first at 1/2 odds.
San Francisco is currently slated to select at the No. 13 and 31 slots on Thursday night.
The second-round pick was shipped to the Chiefs in last year's Dee Ford trade. The third- and fourth-round picks were sent to the Broncos in the Emmanuel Sanders deal. The 49ers say they are open to trading both first-round picks.
Players on the trading block include Pro Bowl defenders Dee Ford, Kwon Alexander, Jaquiski Tartt, Nick Mullens, Matt Breida, Marquise Goodwin and Dante Pettis.
