Final pick of fourth round
The 49ers selected Watkins in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 138th overall.
ANALYSIS
Watkins was overshadowed by bigger names in the wide receiver corps at Ole Miss throughout his time in college, but he was still a significant contributor. He tied for the SEC lead in touchdown receptions with nine in 2024 and was also productive as a punt returner during his time with the Rebels. Watkins is likely to be buried on the depth chart even with the 49ers losing Deebo Samuel and potentially being without Brandon Aiyuk (knee) to begin the season, but he should have a chance to make the roster as a special-teams contributor.

Intriguing Day 3 prospect
Watkins projects to be drafted in the sixth round, according to Dane Brugler of The Athletic's comprehensive 2025 NFL Draft Guide.
ANALYSIS
Watkins had 906 receiving yards and nine touchdowns for Ole Miss in 2024. A substantial part of that production came in a game against Arkansas, during which Watkins set single-game school records with 254 receiving yards and five touchdown receptions. While Watkins moved around the formation in college, his skill set likely translates best to playing in the slot at the NFL level.
