49ers Eye Future: Iowa OT Lauck in 2027 Mock Draft
15 Oct
Summary
- 49ers could draft Iowa OT Trevor Lauck in 2027.
- Lauck boasts an 82.7 PFF pass-blocking grade in 2026.
- His zone-run blocking fits Kyle Shanahan's offense.
The San Francisco 49ers are looking ahead to the 2027 NFL Draft, with Pro Football Focus projecting them to select Iowa offensive tackle Trevor Lauck at No. 32. This potential pick addresses the need for a long-term successor to veteran Trent Williams, who continues to perform at a high level.
Lauck has demonstrated strong performance, achieving an 82.7 pass-blocking grade in 2026 and allowing minimal pressures. His prowess in zone run blocking, with an 82.8 PFF grade in that area, aligns perfectly with the 49ers' outside-zone-based offense under Kyle Shanahan.
Despite the 49ers' historical rarity in drafting offensive linemen in the first round, Lauck's profile suggests he could be a priority. The 6-foot-5, 314-pound tackle is set to start at left tackle for Iowa in 2025, following a limited starting role in the previous season.
