Ok, we\u2019re finally fully into draft week, with just a couple days to go until the 2022 NFL Draft kicks off, so here\u2019s my updated way way too early 2022 roster projection, with my final mock draft.<\/p>\n

Yes, Deebo Samuel has asked for a trade, but I just don\u2019t see it happening, as general manager John Lynch said at the Monday press conference, he can\u2019t envision trading Deebo, and I see it the same way, unless some crazy trade offer comes on day 1, Deebo will be a 49er in 2022, & beyond, as I do believe they work whatever the issues between Deebo, & the 49ers is.<\/p>\n

Ok, so as of now, I\u2019d have the following roster.<\/p>\n

        \nLS(1): 46 Taybor Pepper(2022)<\/p>\n

        PRACTICE SQUAD:<\/strong><\/p>\n

        RB 23 JaMycal Hasty
        \nFB 40 Josh Hokit
        \nWR \u2013 Marcus Johnson
        \nWR \u2013 KeeSean Johnson
        \nTE 82 Ross Dwelley*
        \nC 64 Jake Brendel*
        \nLT \u2013 Nick Zakelj
        \nRT Alfredo Gutierrez
        \nDE 58 Alex Barrett
        \nDT 96 Maurice Hurst Jr.*
        \nNT 78 Chris Slayton
        \nNT \u2013 John Ridgeway
        \nWLB 59 Curtis Robinson
        \nSLB 45 Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles
        \nCB 31 Darqueze Dennard*
        \nCB 24 Ka\u2019dar Hollman<\/p>\n

        With this roster, the 49ers would have a cap commitment of $179,581,038 for the 53-man roster & 16-man practice squad, along with $13,556,628 in dead money, for a total cap commitment of $193,137,666, leaving the 49ers with $20,236,495 in cap room, with $6 million to $8 million reserved for in season roster moves, leaving $14 million to $12 million in potential carryover into 2023.<\/p>\n

        Now, if the 49ers end up having to keep Jimmy Garoppolo, they can do this, they\u2019d need to just restructure Trent Williams\u2019 deal, saving $4.904 million, leaving them with $240,495 in cap room, and to gain more cap room they can restructure Fred Warner\u2019s deal to save $1,223,200, and\/or extend Jimmie Ward, which saves $6.224 million, so when John Lynch said there is a scenario where they could hold onto Garoppolo, it\u2019s the truth.<\/p>\n
