The San Francisco 49ers have announced the signings of five selections from their 2019 draft class. The team has inked deals with the following picks.
- Jalen Hurd, WR, Baylor (round 3, pick 3, No. 67 overall)
- Dre Greenlaw, LB, Arkansas (round 5, pick 10, No. 148 overall)
- Kaden Smith, TE, Stanford (round 6, pick 3, No. 176 overall)
- Justin Skule, OT, Vanderbilt (round 6, pick 10, No. 183 overall)
- Tim Harris, CB, Virginia (round 6, pick 26, No. 198 overall)
The 49ers announced the signings in conjunction with the signings of 10 undrafted free agents.
Thanks to the 2011 CBA, all rookie contracts are now for a length of four years. First-round selections come with a team option for a fifth year, which only applies to defensive end Nick Bosa. Having set numbers for each spot eliminates the need to negotiate salaries and only leaves items like bonus payment terms, roster bonus allocations, and other miscellaneous structural items.
Punter Mitch Wishnowsky, a fourth-round selection, was signed on April 30. That leaves only Bosa and second-round draft pick Deebo Samuel, the wide receiver out of South Carolina, as the only unsigned rookies from the 49ers' 2019 draft class.
