De'Zhaun Stribling

Stribling was a mid-round pick in most mock drafts but the 33rd overall pick in the real NFL Draft, landing with the 49ers after they traded out of the first round. They probably could've kept trading down and still gotten their guy, but doubts about the team's maneuvering shouldn't be held against Stribling, who might otherwise be a trendy sleeper pick for fantasy. Concerns about his age (24 in December) are partially mitigated by solid production early in Stribling's college career, when he put up 44-471-5 (2021) and 51-602-2 (2022) as a true freshman/sophomore at Washington State. He then transferred to Oklahoma State and broke his arm in his fourth game there, setting back his NFL trajectory. Stribling could've entered the 2025 Draft after rebounding for 52-882-6 in 2024, but he instead moved to Ole Miss and put up 55-811-6 for a playoff team. He now heads to San Francisco, where Mike Evans and Ricky Pearsall top the depth chart at wide receiver, backed by veterans Christian Kirk and Demarcus Robinson. Stribling's 4.36 speed (2026 Combine) provides something none of the others can offer, but playing time could be a point of frustration even if he makes big plays in Kyle Shanahan's offense.
