What happened: The San Francisco 49ers traded their No. 27 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft to acquire the No. 33 selection, the first pick of Friday night's second round, along with Nos. 90 and 179. Trade partner not specified in initial report. Move positions 49ers for early second-round talent.
