5. Wide Receiver

One position linked to the 49ers in Free Agency but wasn’t addressed by the team was a big end zone target.

There isn’t really a lot to comment on this one in terms of depth. The 49ers are fine otherwise with the likes of Pierre Garcon returning, Marquise Goodwin on career best form and the exciting Trent Taylor at slot.

It’s doubtful the 49ers see this as their biggest need, but their reported interest in Courtland Sutton and Odell Beckham could indicate it’s on their mind.

Could it be addressed with their first selection? It isn’t impossible.
