NFL mock draft database 2018 - 49ers picks across the Internet

Welcome to the 11th annual Niners Nation Mock Draft Database. Dating back to 2008, we have compiled a look at numerous mock drafts to give us a snapshot of what folks think the San Francisco 49ers will do with their first round pick in the coming draft. If you feel like taking a look back at previous mock drafts, you can check out our 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 databases.

In the months leading up to the NFL Draft, hundreds, if not thousands of websites put together mock drafts on a fairly regular basis. Mock drafts involve a lot of guesswork, but there are varying levels of expertise involved when it comes to college football. Some of the mock drafts are put together by writers who do nothing but follow college football. Others are put together by NFL writers who focus on a single team. And of course there are plenty in between on this wide spectrum. I thought it would be a worthwhile exercise to compile some of them in a single page. We'll likely get up over 30 before next April, but in the meantime, we start out with a handful.

There are countless mock drafts on the Internet, and I am open to any suggestions for quality mock drafts. We'll post this page and then have articles in the coming days, weeks, and months assessing where things stand. For the time being, we'll stick with the top two picks while the 49ers are sitting at No. 2. We might adjust this depending on if the 49ers add more wins and drop down the draft order.
