Iupati was drafted by the 49ers out of Idaho in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft. He has been selected to the Pro Bowl three times and was a first-team All Pro in 2012.

Running back Frank Gore is expected to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles and the many do not expect wide receiver Michael Crabtree or cornerback Chris Culliver to return to the 49ers.
