The San Francisco 49ers drafted pass rusher Eli Harold in the third round this past weekend. What does it mean for the outside linebacker position?
The San Francisco 49ers entered the 2015 NFL Draft with two impressive pass rushing talents in Aldon Smith and Aaron Lynch, and a strong all-around performer in Ahmad Brooks. Dan Skuta departed in free agency, but with a full year of Aldon, and Lynch with a year under his belt, the team had some solid options. Of course, Smith is hitting free agency after this season, and the future of Brooks was already unclear, even before the sexual assault lawsuit.
