We’re two years removed from the San Francisco 49ers’ 2023 draft class, and honestly, it still feels like we’re waiting for something to happen.
First things first, this was quiet; No first-round pick, no second-round pick—those were lost in the trades for Trey Lance and Christian McCaffrey, respectively. So, expectations were already muted when the 49ers finally stepped up to the podium in Round 3.
And while a few players saw the field over the last two seasons, calling this class impactful would be a stretch. Some are still developing. Some are likely depth guys.
