49ers select Iowa OT Trevor Lauck in PFF's 2027 mock draft
Summary

In its first mock draft for 2027, Pro Football Focus has the San Francisco 49ers projected to select Iowa offensive tackle Trevor Lauck with the 32nd overall pick. The 49ers are considering Lauck as a long-term successor to veteran Trent Williams, who remains effective but may retire in the coming seasons. Lauck has demonstrated strong performance with an 82.7 PFF pass-blocking grade in 2026 and has excelled as a run blocker. His skills align well with the 49ers' zone-based offense under head coach Kyle Shanahan. This represents a shift in strategy for the 49ers, who have rarely drafted offensive linemen in the first round.
