The San Francisco 49ers selected wide receiver Jacob Cowing in the fourth round of the draft, adding him to a wideout group that includes Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel, Jauan Jennings, and first-round pick Ricky Pearsall.
The 49ers’ selection of wide receiver Ricky Pearsall in Round 1 of the 2024 draft made plenty of waves regarding the future of San Francisco’s receiving corps.
The most consistent wide receiver in the playoffs was Jauan Jennings. While Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk struggled to beat press-man coverage, Jennings didn't.
The 49ers could extend Deommodore Lenoir's contract right now if they wanted to. But doing do would be expensive, plus so much of their future salary cap space is allocated for Brandon Aiyuk and Brock Purdy.
Will it be the team friendly deal or will he reset the market? Enjoy it, San Francisco 49ers fans. This year we got slapped with the Brandon Aiyuk “will they or won’t they” trade drama, guest starring Deebo Samuel with a cameo from Jauan Jennings.
It's not uncommon for a player to be frustrated with his lack of playing time. The San Francisco 49ers have their share of players who complained, usually after leaving the team, about how they were underused or weren't given the opportunities to showcase their skills.
Arguably the last thing any fan of the San Francisco 49ers wants to hear from a new player is praise of anything connected with the Seattle Seahawks. But after being selected in the fourth round by the Niners, Arizona wide receiver Jacob Cowing was full of praise for one of a veteran Seahawks All-Pro.
The 49ers need a linebacker to replace Dre Greenlaw while he recovers from a torn Achilles. They signed De'Vondre Campbell, but he's also 31 -- his career is almost over.
It's no secret that Brock Purdy is likely to get a lot more expensive for the San Francisco 49ers in 2025. Assuming Purdy continues to perform to the same standard he produced in a spectacular 2023 season, the San Francisco 49ers quarterback will receive a contract extension to make him one of the highest-paid players in the NFL.
Former San Francisco 49ers WR Willie Snead just wants a chance, something he feels his old team never offered.
Kyle Shanahan was satisfied with the group of players that the San Francisco 49ers drafted this year. Of course, any and every head coach believes that at the time.
The 49ers had the highest-rated quarterback in the league by a wide margin last season, and yet they attempted the fewest passes of any team in the NFL.
So far, the 49ers' 2023 draft class looks abysmal. Their first pick was safety Ji'Ayir Brown, whom they traded up to get in Round 3. He looks good. Other than him, the 49ers have a bunch of disappointments and question marks.
This year the 49ers drafted mostly for 2025, but one rookie has a better chance than the others to start in 2024, and that's cornerback Renardo Green. The 49ers traded down one spot to take Green with the final pick in Round 2.
The 49ers drafted two wide receivers this year -- Ricky Pearsall in Round 1 and Jacob Cowing in Round 4 -- which bodes well for Cowing and not so well for Pearsall, considering the 49ers draft history.
The 49ers haven't exactly been clear about their vision for the future of third-round pick Dominick Puni. They said they'd start him inside, presumably at guard, and that he might have the ability to play center too, even though he never has played that position in a game.
Former GM Scot McCloughan is widely considered the architect of the San Francisco 49ers roster that Jim Harbaugh took to three straight NFC Championships and one Super Bowl.

Free agent wide receiver Willie Snead did not light up the stat sheet in 2023. Playing a reserve role on the NFC Champion San Francisco 49ers, the pass-catcher finished the season with just two receptions for 14 yards while appearing in four games.
The San Francisco 49ers have drafted many running backs in the top half of the draft over the years. Some have been hits, like Roger Craig (1983, second round), Ricky Watters (1991, second round), and Frank Gore (2005, third round).
