The San Francisco 49ers’ offseason has gone through several waves. First, free agency saw a mass exodus of player mainstays. The NFL draft brought an infusion of talent and youth while filling positional group needs. After eleven picks, the team addressed its poor run defense and bottom-of-the-league special teams unit. Now, the 49ers are in extension mode after signing George Kittle to a record extension, with Fred Warner and Brock Purdy up next before training camp.
