49ers LB Tatum Bethune

Bethune played his ass off! He was captain of the D when he played at FSU. I was glad the Niners drafted him. He always plays hard.

The 49ers have to be the best team in the league at drafting in the 6th and 7th round.

Bathune, Winters, Purdy, Kalia Davis, Elijah Mitchell, Jauan Jennings, DJ Jones. They find a legit player almost every year.

Too bad we are terrible in rounds 1-4

Letting Saleh draft rounds 1-4 worked out pretty well. He's learned a lot since Solomon Thomas

Factoring in 2024 and 2025, we probably are above average in rounds 1. Seriously.

Hits
McGlinchey
Bosa
Aiyuk
Pearsall
Williams (looks like one)

Misses
Thomas
Foster
Kinlaw
Lance

Its in rounds 2 and 3 where it gets dog ugly. Outside of Deebo and Warner there are some major whiffs. This regime needs a break on the flack they get in round 1 and more attention paid to the waste of picks in rounds 2 and 3 which really kills your depth.

The problem with your misses list is, its not JUST the fact that those players didnt turn out. Its the fact that we chose them over players of extreme need who DID turn out, or we gave up a lot to get said player (or both).

Thomas (Passed on Mahomes, CMC, Watson)
Foster
Kinlaw (traded Buckner for cap space and this bust)
Lance (cost us 3 first round picks to draft him)
