The 2019 NFL Draft was an exciting time for San Francisco 49ers fans. The Niners held the No. 2 overall pick in the draft and selected arguably the year’s most talented rookie, pass-rusher Nick Bosa from Ohio State University. They were also able to scoop up some flashy weapons for head coach Kyle Shanahan’s potent offense: players like wide receivers Deebo Samuel from South Carolina and Jalen Hurd from Baylor.
The Niners were also extremely active in free agency, adding defensive talents like linebacker Kwon Alexander, edge-rusher Dee Ford, and cornerback Jason Verrett.
