The San Francisco 49ers are projected to have $9,634,917 in their 2016 rookie contract pool, per salary cap tracking site Spotrac.com. Because of their 11 draft selections, that is enough to make the 49ers' rookie contract pool the third most in the NFL, behind only the Cleveland Browns and the Baltimore Ravens.
Per the 2011 negotiated CBA, all contracts are for a length of four years. However, the 49ers will have an option to pick up a fifth year for each of their two first-round selections.
