2015 NFL Draft: Best Available Prospects for Day 3

Who are the top prospects remaining on day three of the NFL Draft?

Scott Olmos-USA TODAY Sports

The third and final day of the NFL Draft (rounds four through seven) begins today at 9am PT.  The 49ers have seven picks remaining including three in the fourth round and plenty of talent is still available. Check out SB Nation's full list of best players available.

Considering a few areas perceived as needs we can assume the 9ers could at some point target any of the following positions: cornerback, wide receiver, offensive line, inside linebacker, and maybe running back.

Rashad Greene, Justin Hardy, Stefon Diggs, and Tre McBride are the top receivers left. McBride would have the highest upside of the three.

I really like Tulane CB Lorenzo Doss. He's an absolute ball hawk and would really fit the physical identify of the 49ers. Could Ifo Ekpre-Olomu extend Trent Baalke's streak of taking players recovering for knee injuries?

Pittsburgh tackle TJ Clemmings is free falling through the draft. Once considered a first rounder, he apparently has some medical issues causing some teams to really back off of him.

If they decide to add to the offensive line depth later in rounds six or seven, keep an eye on Mark Glowinski from West Virginia. He's a strong, physical lineman capable of playing multiple spots.

There are also plenty of talented running backs left and I'm starting to feel good about my thought that the fourth round was where to target one. Jay Ajayl, David Cobb, and Mike Davis are all legitimate options. If they wait, someone like Karlos Williams could be ideal given his experience on special teams.
