The 49ers’ active free agency period caused a shift in their list of needs heading into the 2019 NFL draft. San Francisco’s roster isn’t deep enough to pass on good players at any position, but the priorities have certainly changed after they touched on several areas of need through the first week of free agency.

The trade for defensive end Dee Ford didn’t change the fact the 49ers should aim for an edge player with the No. 2 overall pick. Depth at this position is important, and the release of defensive lineman Cassius Marsh provides further proof that San Francisco will need to add more bodies at this spot. Elite talent on the edge can be a game-changer on defense, and having a pair of players to get after the quarterback opens a ton of doors that were previously closed for the 49ers on that side of the ball.
