The San Francisco 49ers have made numerous signings at the start of NFL free agency. Along with that, John Lynch has also released players that were on the Niners roster. Let’s take a look at their depth chart heading into the NFL Draft.
The San Francisco 49ers spent the first week of free agency wheeling and dealing for players to fill out their roster.
Their roster total is up to 69 now, after the signing of LB Dekoda Watson, so they still have a ways to go before they fill out the 90-man roster.
It’s been a complete overhaul this offseason, headed by John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan. They’ve looked to add and keep players that fit the scheme that they want to run offensively and defensively.
