49ers NFL Draft: 5 early needs for San Francisco in 2021

The San Francisco 49ers roster in 2021 could look a lot different than the anticipated squad many will watch this upcoming season.

Free agency will likely play a big part, as the Niners no longer boast a plethora of cap space and have some exceptionally large contract extensions to dish out in the very near future, including a market-setting one for All-Pro tight end George Kittle. Linebacker Fred Warner won’t be cheap in future years, and EDGE Nick Bosa could end up commanding the most money ever for a defensive player.
