The San Francisco 49ers would appear to have some serious interest in Clemson pass rusher Shaq Lawson. College Football 24/7 (part of NFL.com) spoke to Lawson on Thursday, and he discussed plans to meet with the 49ers, Carolina Panthers, and Dallas Cowboys.

Lawson said he will conduct a private workout with the 49ers on Thursday, March 24, and then visit Santa Clara on April 10. He will workout for the Panthers on March 22 and visit Charlotte April 7, and visit the Cowboys facilities on April 5. He likely will have other visits, and he also has a medical re-check on a prior shoulder injury in Indianapolis on April 15. This followed a Combine interview with the 49ers.

Lawson measured in at the Combine at 6'3, 269 pounds. He has 32 3/4" arms and 10" hands. He ran a 4.70 40 and had a 33" vertical leap and 120" broad jump. He's already big enough to be an outside linebacker for the 49ers, although he might need to cut down just a little bit. He seems best suited either as a 3-4 OLB or a 4-3 DE.

Lawson is projected as a first round pick. User LI49er put together a scouting report on Lawson last week, and here are a few of this thoughts from the conclusion:
