The 49ers’ eight-player 2019 draft class will need to immediately make their presence known if San Francisco is going to contend for the playoffs this season.

The 49ers not only need Bosa to start right away, but they need him to be an impact player off the edge in his rookie season. San Francisco selected Bosa as a three-down player who mans the edge in both base and sub packages. He might never be a 15 or 20 sack player, but he has a shot to transform the 49ers’ defense.

Chance of starting: 99.9 percent
