The 49ers got the best pass rusher in the 2019 NFL Draft, and their defensive front is looking quite ferocious heading into the coming season.The 49ers signed Dee Ford in free agency, and now have a complement to him on the other edge. It’s been years since the 49ers had a consistent multi-dimensional pass rush. They’ve tried to mix and match parts, and we’ve seen some of their recent first round draft picks played out of position in hopes of making it work. Now they have two premium players coming off the edge https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Alfred-Morris-Jersey , and DeForest Buckner’s life has been made a heck of a lot easier.It is no surprise then that the annual first round draft grades are reflecting what was the right move to improve the team’s defense. SB Nation’s Dan Kadar kicked things by discussing the obvious need and value for the 49ers.CBS Sports analyst Pete Prisco loves the pick and thinks, “[t]hey are building something special on that defensive line.” He also agrees with Bosa’s decision to sit out and get right from a health perspective. He had the core muscle injury this past year, and tore his ACL a few years ago, so health will be something to keep an eye on. But for now, it made all the sense in the world.For The Win’s Steven Ruiz added his two cents on the fact that there’s still a chance Nick ends up better than Joey. He sees comparable athleticism and potentially even more power in Nick.49ers GM John Lynch said after the pick that the 49ers had similar grades on Bosa and Alabama defensive tackle Quinnen Williams. He said that the difference-maker was the 49ers pass rush need. Bosa and Williams were regularly at the top of most big boards, and NFL.com’s Chad Reuter thinks the 49ers got the best player in the draft. He said Bosa’s floor is Chris Long, and that’s a great floor.As you can see, it was all As, with an A- and an A+ to balance out. People love this pick.Other gradesThe Ringer: A+ Mike Tanier: ASI: AYahoo!: A-Cleveland.com: AMassLive.com: A The Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2019 was announced on the eve of the Super Bowl Weston Richburg Jersey , and 49ers fans may be disappointed. John Lynch did not get in, again (his sixth time) and Isaac Bruce also did not make it in. Both do not have tight connections with the 49ers. Bruce played the final two seasons of his career, having spent the rest of it with the then-St. Louis Rams (his rookie year they were in Los Angeles, in case you’re keeping track). John Lynch spent his playing career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Denver Broncos before becoming the general manager of the 49ers in 2017. 2020 brings with it some more eligibility for familiar and tenured 49ers ... Carlos Rogers!Ok, that’s a cut-and-paste job from Fooch’s joke this time last year, but really what we’re bringing up is Patrick Willis. The argument we’ll be hearing is how his career was short. Short or not,the 49ers were a different team when he was on the field. In the locker room, Willis was the consummate professional and he was very active in the community off the field. And yes, the selection committee does look at this when deciding on selection—look at the delays to let Terrell Owens in. Despite the praise Cassius Marsh Color Rush Jersey , ability, and pedigree, the Hall will most likely keep him out. At least for his first couple of years. Longevity can’t be ignored and Willis’ brief career is what is going keep him on the outside looking in. If he got a Super Bowl ring that may have swung a different direction, but he has none. Then there’s Justin Smith, a player that is also deserving and has a better chance of making it in. Cowboy, as some people called him was fearless, durable, and the backbone of the 49ers’ defensive line during the Jim Harbaugh years.Smith demanded double teams on every play or the opposing team’s quarterback would pay dearly for it. When Aldon Smith was drafted, Justin’s double teams allowed Aldon ample opportunity to run around the edge. When they were healthy https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Brock-Coyle-Jersey , this made a filthy defensive line that was downright unfair. When teams tried to double-team Aldon in response of his productivity, Justin would just bullrush the single offensive linemen into the quarterback and take them both down at times.Justin Smith might not be a first-ballot hall of famer, but he has a much better chance of getting in at some point. That class also has Maurice Jones-Drew, Reggie Wayne, and Troy Polamalu. Of those three I think Polamalu has the best chance of getting in on the first ballot. Polamalu has two Super Bowl rings on the first page of a book of stats so thick, it’d put an address book to shame. When do you see Patrick Willis or Justin Smith getting in?
