49ers mock drafts: A new face emerges among candidates to help boost team’s pass rush

Draft analysts across the nation seem to agree when it comes to the 49ers.

All expect San Francisco to select a player to boost its pass rush. One player remains the favorite to be selected with the No. 2 overall pick, but there’s a new player emerging on analysts’ radar.

With the NFL scouting combine kicking off Tuesday, all of this could change dramatically.

There are still two months before the three-day, seven-round NFL draft kicks off April 25 in Nashville, Tenn., but there’s always fun in speculation and predictions.
