Von Miller on 49ers’ Trent Brown: ‘He’s the best right tackle in the NFL’

After the 49ers practiced against the Broncos in 2016, Denver's Von Miller said Trent Brown was one of the "better tackles" in the NFL. A year later, one of the league's best pass-rushers has even stronger praise for the 49ers' 6-foot-8, 355-pound right tackle. "He's the best right tackle in the National Football League," Miller said Wednesday after the first of two joint practices with the 49ers. "And he may even be a top-five tackle, period, in the National Football League. There's not another tackle who's that tall, that big and can move he way he moves." Miller, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, and Brown actually renewed acquaintances in June.

Having two studs bookending the offensive line would go a long way in protecting franchise quarterback Brock Purdy. While tackle may be the first-round target, depending on how the first 30 selections play out, San Francisco might have to trade up to get a genuinely impactful

The San Francisco 49ers have been striving to solidify their defensive backfield for years. They would love to find someone to fortify the outside cornerback spot opposite Charvarius Ward, allowing Deommodore Lenoir to play in the slot.
