Graham is among nine former Michigan players participating in the NFL Scouting Combine that kicks into gear with on-field testing Thursday.

Where will Michigan football's Mason Graham be picked in 2025 NFL draft? NFL mock draft projections, picks weigh in on Wolverines star.

Mason Graham would be a perfect fit for the 49ers. He's big enough to stuff the run in their Wide 9 alignment, and he's disruptive enough to collapse the pocket and pressure the quarterback. The 49ers haven't had a player like him since DeForest Buckner.

If Mason Graham were to fall to No. 11 in the NFL Draft, the 49ers won’t need to wrestle with their decision for very long. That’s the view of Daniel Jeremiah, the lead draft analyst for NFL Network who spent nearly three hours Thursday fielding questions about the prospective Class of ’25 ranging from blue chip prospects to the more obscure third-day selections.

Mason Graham is a twitchy, high-motor upfield three-technique that could instantly elevate the interior of Jacksonville’s defensive line.

Jeremiah could be onto something. At least two quarterbacks will push Graham down the board, and a couple athletic freaks could as well after the Combine.
