San Francisco 49ers: 5 UDFAs with best chance to make 53-man roster

The San Francisco 49ers have had some nice luck with their crop of undrafted free-agent additions over the past few years.

In 2017, the Niners added former Georgia Southern running back Matt Breida and former Eastern Washington wide receiver Kendrick Bourne following that year’s NFL Draft, and both Breida and Bourne were integral pieces for head coach Kyle Shanahan’s squad the past three seasons.

San Francisco selected just five players during the 2020 NFL Draft, yet general manager John Lynch and Co. added 10 more players who went undrafted.

Some of these players could have been selected on day three of the draft, so the 49ers getting some of these names as UDFAs could be considered steals.
