With Scot McCloughan Out, Trent Baalke Will Run 49ers Draft
San Francisco’s director of player personnel Trent Baalke will lead the 49ers into a critical draft in which the team is scheduled to have the 13th and 17th overall picks, according to a league source.
Baalke has a strong reputation around the league and many expect that San Francisco will be able to march on successfully. He is recognized as a strong and capable talent evaluator.
Schefter also reports McCloughan is dealing with “personal issues” and would be out indefinitely.
