Here is my listing of the a complete 53-man football squad made up of the greatest 49ers to ever play. I intentionally left off the one-year wonders (Deion, Dent, etc.) and I used a 3-4 defense as my model. Do you agree with this roster? Who would you remove/add? How would you play this roster? Who would you start? How would this All-Time 53 compare to other teams? Have fun! I am interested in hearing your responses and learning myself.
