SANTA CLARA — Friday night’s third round wound down, the 49ers owned the third-to-last pick, and this draft’s most notorious quarterback was still available.
Shedeur Sanders, son of 1994 49ers’ Super Bowl champion Deion Sanders, would not be selected and/or rescued by the 49ers at pick No. 100.
Instead, Western Kentucky cornerback Upton Stout was the 49ers’ selection, and the Sanders’ downward slide resumed.
Stout was the fourth defensive player taken in as many picks by the the 49ers this draft, following defensive end Mykel Williams (first round, No. 11 overall), defensive tackle Alfred Collins (second round, No. 43) and linebacker Nick Martin (No. 75).
FIve quarterbacks have been drafted through two days, including Jalen Milroe (Seattle Seahawks, No. 92) and Dillon Gabriel (Cleveland Browns, No. 94) in the third round.
For now, Brock Purdy’s backups on the 49ers remain Mac Jones and Tanner Mordecai. Purdy, of course, is three years removed from being the 262nd and final pick of the 2022 draft.
The 49ers’ final selection Friday night came after the Raiders’ back-to-back picks of offensive linemen, Caelb Rogers and Charles Grant.
