The San Francisco 49ers were plenty active in undrafted free agency, signing 19 players following the 2017 NFL draft. They signed 18 initially, released two of them plus DuJuan Harris, and signed three more.
The 49ers have received praise for their additions, with Lorenzo Jerome, Cole Hikutini, and Kendrick Bourne among the players getting kudos. Late last week, Bleacher Report NFL analyst Gary Davenport offered up grades for each UDFA class. He gave the 49ers a B, which actually falls right in the middle of the pack. Seven teams received an A or A- and eight received a B+.
