The 49ers’ 2019 draft class has a chance to have a huge influence on the team’s success. They’ll have several rookies stepping into starting jobs, and others asked to be contributors starting in Week 1.

We went through the 49ers’ eight draft picks and ranked them in order of the impact they’ll have in their rookie seasons.

DE Nick Bosa (Round 1)

It wouldn’t be a surprise to see Bosa on the field for all three downs right away. He’s supposed to be a high-impact player at the most important position on the defense. Bosa’s production should have a ripple effect that helps the 49ers’ sack totals, as well as their abysmal turnover numbers. Getting better pass rush off the edge should elevate San Francisco’s pass defense from one of the NFL’s worst, and singlehandedly help generate more wins.
