With the need for quarterbacks being extremely high, it may lead to the SF 49ers landing a top cornerback prospect like Patrick Surtain II.
The 2021 NFL Draft is loaded at the top with quarterbacks, and there are teams early on in the draft who could use one. Due to this fact, it will cause players at other positions to fall further than they should, giving teams an opportunity to get some positive return on investment.
One of the teams that could benefit from this is the SF 49ers.
