Will the 49ers defensive line be better in 2025?

When it comes to position groups that have seen the most attrition this offseason for the San Francisco 49ers, the defensive line has easily been the most impacted position.

San Francisco made several cash-saving moves along the defensive line, releasing defensive end Leonard Floyd and defensive tackles Javon Hargrave and Maliek Collins.

In return, they did not make any meaningful additions, creating holes on the starting defensive line ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Defensive line play has long been a staple of the 49ers’ defenses, as they’ve made significant investments at the position in the past.
