Longtime 49ers beat writer Matt Barrows suggests that the team select Penn State tight end Ty Warren with the No. 11 pick in the NFL mock draft. Despite pressing needs on the offensive and defensive lines, Warren's versatility could significantly enhance the 49ers' offense. His ability to line up in various positions and provide depth for aging players like Kyle Juszczyk and the potential departure of Deebo Samuel makes him an appealing choice. Warren had an impressive college career with over 1,200 receiving yards and demonstrated effective blocking skills, making him a viable long-term option for the 49ers.
Kyle Shanahan would have a hard time turning down a chess piece like Warren. That Warren is big and physical enough to play inline also could save George Kittle some of those snaps.
Warren was sensational for the Nittany Lions where he was utilized all over the place on offense. He posted 104 receptions for 1,233 yards and eight touchdowns in 2024.
