No. 2 San Francisco 49ers: DE Solomon Thomas
School: Stanford
Position: Defensive End
Class: Junior
Outlook: For the past several mocks, we have had the 49ers selecting a quarterback. Only the 49ers know for certain, but we're not sure there is a quarterback that Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch want to hitch their wagon to, at least, not with the second overall pick. Thomas continues to move up draft boards with analysts and NFL teams projecting him as the next Michael Bennett. Like Bennett, Thomas can play outside and inside on the defensive line. Thomas had eight sacks last season for Stanford but his impact on opposing offenses reaches beyond statistics. Thomas checked all the boxes at the Combine to go along with his stellar tape. This move allows the 49ers to use their second round pick on a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes or another signal caller that slips to them at 34. (Getty)
