The 49ers used a fifth-round NFL Draft pick on Western Michigan tackle Jaylon Moore, and he could translate into a key depth piece right away in 2021.

It was pretty evident this offseason San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan wasn’t entirely pleased with the performance and depth of his offensive line in 2020.

While re-signing left tackle Trent Williams solved a big piece, Shanahan’s other moves included bringing aboard veteran center Alex Mack, assisting a massive need there, while also using a second-round NFL Draft pick on Notre Dame guard Aaron Banks.
