The 49ers have a number of players just reaching the tip of their top potential, and these five could end up breaking out in a big way in 2021.

In a way, 2019 was a perfect example of how the San Francisco 49ers benefited from not just some of their star players making big contributions that year, but also from a number of less-known or up-and-coming players showing up.

And when those things culminate, making it to the Super Bowl certainly isn’t out of the question.
