2017 NFL Mock Draft: Deshaun Watson & Jabrill Peppers in Top 5 Picks

No. 2 San Francisco 49ers: DE Jonathan Allen


School: Alabama


Position: Defensive End


Class: Senior


Outlook: The question between now and the draft is what the 49ers will do at quarterback. Colin Kaepernick is the closest player Chip Kelly has had at quarterback to fitting his system in Oregon. The 49ers could move away from him and opt to draft another player. Whether they would draft one with a high pick is anyone's guess. Deshaun Watson has the tools that will get him a long look from Kelly and the 49ers. With his stock all over the board, San Francisco could opt for a player like Allen who is as solid as they come. As Bleacher Report's Matt Miller pointed out, it can only help Allen during the draft process that Nick Saban goes out of his way to praise the star defensive player. (Getty)
