"I couldn't be put into a better situation," Bosa said. "This is a team that shouldn't have been picking this high, and with all the talent they have, I can't wait to go to work and win some games."
Bosa is looking forward to proving his value to the Niner Faithful (and congrats to him on getting that term right) on game days.
"I'm so excited," Bosa continued. "This has been my dream since I was seven years old. Every fan of The Faithful is going to see that on Sundays. I'm going to put it all on the line."
Bosa joins a defensive front that added former Kansas City Chiefs pass rusher Dee Ford on the outside and already had a young Pro Bowl interior defender in DeForest Buckner.
"I'm going to have an amazing team around me," Bosa said. "The Niners shouldn't have been picking two. They're that talented. They added Dee Ford so now I get to play across from him.
"So just the team and then Coach (Kyle) Shanahan seems like a player's coach, seems like a really good guy. And then John Lynch is a legend in the NFL, and someone I look up to."
Has Bosa spoken with the 49ers about how he will be used within Robert Saleh's defense?
"I'm going to be a 9-technique, and I'm going to be crushing the edge and rushing the passer," Bosa answered. "That's what they drafted me for, I'm sure, so that's what I'm going to do. That's exactly what I've been doing my whole life. It's definitely going to be a good transition, a good fit."
Bosa added that he wants to knock the football out of quarterbacks' hands and change the game.
