Niners Eye Indiana's Marsh for 2027 WR Draft Pick
3 Nov
Summary
- 49ers select Indiana WR Nick Marsh 31st overall in mock draft.
- Marsh has 38 catches for 669 yards and eight touchdowns this season.
- Injuries plague current Niners receivers, prompting potential draft focus.
According to a recent mock draft, the San Francisco 49ers are projected to select Indiana wide receiver Nick Marsh with the 31st overall pick in the 2027 NFL Draft. Marsh, standing at 6-foot-3 and weighing 210 pounds, is noted for his physicality and ability to make contested catches, drawing comparisons to Elijah Sarratt.
Marsh is experiencing his most productive college season to date. Through nine games in 2026, he has accumulated 38 receptions for 669 yards and eight touchdowns, averaging 74.3 receiving yards per game. His previous seasons at Michigan State and Indiana have also shown significant production.
The 49ers have recently invested high draft capital in the wide receiver position, including Ricky Pearsall at No. 31 in 2024 and De'Zhaun Stribling in the second round of the 2026 draft. However, significant injuries to players like Pearsall and Stribling may prompt the team to consider another early receiver selection in 2027.
