When the San Francisco 49ers beat the Seattle Seahawks at the end of the season last year and all but secured the fact that the falling Arizona Cardinals would end up with the #1 overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft, there was quite a reaction from sports fans and media and NFL draft analysts alike.
Much of it went along the lines of “Nice going, 49ers now you’ll have to face Bosa twice a year.”
Nick Bosa began the 2019 season as the consensus #1 overall pick until a core muscle injury that required surgery convinced him to sit out the rest of the season and prepare for the NFL Draft.
