Last year, the San Francisco 49ers were drafting third overall, taking their quarterback of the future, Trey Lance. Additionally, the Niners added Nick Bosa, Brandon Aiyuk, and Deebo Samuel in the previous two drafts.
They all figure prominently in the 49ers’ immediate success and the long-term prosperity of the franchise. With a rejuvenated roster and one of the best head coaches in the game, the Niners are poised for another successful playoff run, currently with NFL odds of +1600 to win the Super Bowl.
Facilitating Learning Curves
Not everyone can adapt to the rigors of the NFL. Still, the 49ers have done exceptionally well to get their younger players acclimated to the league. Bosa has been a disruptive presence off the edge, tallying 15.5 sacks and 21 tackles for a loss last year.
That same season, we saw Samuel emerge as one of the pre-eminent offensive producers. The All-Pro totaled 1,770 yards from scrimmage, leading the league with 18.2 yards per catch and finding paydirt 14 times. That leaves little doubt that San Francisco can help Lance reach his full potential.
