2021 edge rush prospects

You know at some point SF is gonna draft and edge rusher.

Figured we'd start a thread on guys you like or might fit what SF does.

IMO there isn't a true elite talent like we've seen the pas couple yrs, but there's a ton of depth and good/solid prospects.

couple names that come to mind...

Patrick Jones-Pitt
Gregory Rousseau-Miami
Aidan Hutchinson-Michigan
Carlos Basham-Wake Forest
victor Dimukeje-Duke
Joseph Ossai-Texas
Hamilcar Rashed Jr-Oregon State

I'm, pretty sure Greg Rousseau secured a spot in the top 10 helping one of our QB's to fall. Carlos Basham is another one that could jump into the top 10 with a good Combine or off season. IMO

I dont think either are top ten picks, imo.

Some others I like to add to NYs list:
Boye Mafe
Malcolm Koonce
DeAngelo Malone
Joshua Kaindoh
Azeez Ojulari
I agree, kind of an average looking year with depth options. BPA at our 2nd pick looks pretty solid for someone to backup Ford
This class is not impressive imo.

lol back up Ford. Ford will never play again. They need to draft someone to replace Ford.

I think there's some find depth, maybe not a super star talent like the past couple drafts.

I'm good with that, means SF isn't gonna draft another DL in the first lol (hopefully).

I'm in an undecided love/hate relationship with Kwity Paye. I want to have an irresponsible crush on him, but I can't help but think of Rashan Gary and get scared. Where's Wu when you need him

Yup, thanks
Despite's Jimmy's troubles, a pass rusher is probably ShanaLynch's priority.

It certainly should be. But QB in the first, and hope someone is on the board in the 2nd round that they like. Also, it's imperative the 49ers resign Trent Williams. We don't need to go into the draft with limited draft picks and needing a left tackle.

I'll starting watching EDGE tape soon. Going to do a deep dive this time for this the next draft.
