The 2017 draft was the first for general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan. San Francisco began a massive roster restructuring under the new regime, and that kicked off with the 2017 draft.

San Francisco wound up with 10 players out of that class. They needed a strong first go in the draft, and that year’s group has provided mixed results for the 49ers through two seasons.
