The Niners have sought after a TE2 to supplement George Kittle and add to the offense for a few years now. We’ve seen them sign Jordan Reed, give Jordan Matthews a shot, draft multiple tight ends on Day 3 of the draft such as Kaden Smith and Charlie Woerner.
Unfortunately for San Francisco, neither of those options has panned out. But that hasn’t stopped Kyle Shanahan and company from taking swings at the position, and it’s unlikely to in this draft, either.
This upcoming tight end class is said to be one of the deepest in recent memory.
