The SF 49ers are not averse to throwing a spanner in the works come NFL Draft day.
This is a very important draft year for the SF 49ers, as the team looks to make the necessary adjustments to the team to remain a Super Bowl contender.
After a disappointing 2020 that was handicapped by injuries across the board, the Niners are expected to release some players who were a key fixture in the Super Bowl run from 2019 to free up cap space and allow some flexibility for free agency.
