The San Francisoc 49ers have made their first pick of the 2015 NFL Draft following a move down two spots. The team selected Oregon defensive lineman Arik Armstead.
49ers fans are going to be questioning the Armstead pick given his raw nature. But the 49ers do need some depth at the defensive line, and they have a head coach who knows his defensive linemen. We'll see how quickly Armstead develops. Part of that will depend on whether or not Justin Smith decides to retire. If he does retire, there will be opportunities alongside Darnell Dockett, Tank Carradine, Quinton Dial, Glenn Dorsey, Tony Jerod-Eddie and so many more.
