The 49ers’ 2018 NFL draft class wound up making a much-needed impact after the 2017 class struggled in its second season. San Francisco selected nine players in 2018, eight of them were on the active roster and saw snaps in their rookie seasons, with the ninth missing the whole season with a knee injury he suffered in college.
