San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert had six carries for 58 yards with a touchdown and added two receptions for 42 yards against the Denver Broncos on Monday night. The rushing score helped the 49ers defeat the Broncos 24-15.
Mostert's outing was good enough to earn him the team's top offensive grade from analytics site Pro Football Focus.
The top overall 49ers grade, however, went to defensive end Damontre Moore. He recorded three total pressures, which included a hit and two hurries, in 10 pass-rush snaps (15 total snaps) before exiting the game with a dislocated thumb.
Moore may have earned San Francisco's top grade, but two Broncos graded higher. They are linebacker Bradley Chubb (94.2) and CB
Isaac Yiadom (92.5), who had an interception off of quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. WR Emmanuel Sanders, like Moore, earned a grade of 89.5.
Below are the five 49ers players on offense who earned PFF's top grades against the Broncos.
- RB Raheem Mostert (86.2)
- WR Kendrick Bourne (80.1)
- C Wesley Johnson (75.9)
- TE Kaden Smith (75.8)
- WR Deebo Samuel (74.0)
Below are the five 49ers players on defense with PFF's top grades.

- S Jaquiski Tartt (83.9)

Where the 49ers landed in PFF's latest power ranking
While it would be foolish to declare that the San Francisco 49ers lack any deficiencies, the team remains one of the most talented rosters in the NFL. That alone is enough to place them high on media power rankings.
The truth is, power rankings mean very little at this stage in the offseason. Yes, free agency has come and gone, but NFL rosters are about to undergo further changes this week, with the 2024 NFL Draft slated for Thursday.
Pro Football Focus' Amelia Probst posted a power ranking based on the analytics site's data on each roster and the offseason roster moves made so far. The San Francisco 49ers came in at No. 2, behind only the Kansas City
PFF high on this cornerback for 49ers in mock draft
Analyst Dane Brugler of The Athletic grades former Iowa State cornerback T.J. Tampa as a second or third-round draft pick and ranks him 55th overall on his big board. Pro Football Focus, however, holds a higher opinion of the young defensive back. In his latest mock draft, the site's lead analyst, Sam Monson, has the San Francisco 49ers selecting Tampa with the No. 31 overall pick.
"T.J. Tampa fits the prototype of a 49ers cornerback," Monson explains. "He has had consecutive seasons of very impressive play and allowed just 240 yards on 49 targets last season. The team doesn't necessarily need him to make an immediate impact, but they could

Breaking down the 49ers drafts under John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan
We are less than one week away from the NFL Draft, and the San Francisco 49ers have their first day-one draft pick since 2021. That was the year they selected QB Trey Lance number three overall. The trade-up to get Lance cost the 49ers their first-round picks in 2022 and 2023. And now that they are back in the first round, at pick 31, fans are anxious to see what the team does with the pick. And with former assistant GM, Adam Peters, now in Washington, it will be interesting to see how well the 49ers draft without Peters in the room.
We looked back at the seven drafts GM John Lynch and Head Coach Kyle Shanahan have led to see what information we could pull from those drafts. There were plenty of hits, plenty of misses, and a few surprises along the way. The draft picks are
