The spotlight is on the San Francisco 49ers’ current crop of rookies - and rightfully so. We’re only a couple weeks removed from the 2019 NFL Draft, and the team just wrapped up their first rookie minicamp last weekend. As the team prepares for OTAs later this month, we’ll turn our attention towards the previous year’s rookies, the players that are expected to take that next developmental step forward in Year 2 of their career. General manager John Lynch’s first three draft picks in 2018 have all earned starting roles. It’s a good sign, but now they’ll be expected to do more for the team to compete in the NFC West.
