2. San Francisco 49ers

Nick Bosa . 2. player. 42. . DE. Ohio State

It became apparent fairly early that the San Francisco 49ers might’ve made a mistake when they took Solomon Thomas last year. While he’s a good talent and great kid, his fit in their 4-3 defense has proven questionable, which is why he continues to lose snaps to other players. The 49ers badly need a true pass rusher who can create heat by himself without the benefit of the scheme. Nick Bosa would be a great fit. He’s got that length, size, and power mixture a defensive end require. Throw in blue chip athleticism and burst and he’s the total package.
