The San Francisco 49ers need to add talent at edge rusher, and free agency could offer some complementary options more than clear No. 1 type players. Brandon Graham, Dante Fowler, and Ezekiel Ansah are three options that likely will hit the market and would be solid complements if the 49ers decided to invest in a young edge rusher at No. 2.
DeMarcus Lawrence and Jadeveon Clowney are the better pass rushers due to hit free agency, but neither is likely to hit the open market. Another player who seems more and more unlikely to hit the open market is Kansas City Chiefs edge rusher Dee Ford.
