The San Francisco 49ers made eight selections in the 2024 NFL Draft, addressing a number of needs, both for the present and the future.

Among the group, the 49ers took two offensive linemen: Kansas’s Dominick Puni with the No. 86 pick in the third round and USC’s Jarrett Kingston with the No. 215 pick in the sixth round.

While San Francisco focused on addressing the interior, they did not take an offensive tackle, which had been a position the team evaluated hard heading into the draft.

The 49ers did have options in both the first and second round, but bypassed those choices, instead opting to address receiver and cornerback with their first two picks before trading up to select Puni in the third round.
