Greenlaw turned out to be one of the steals of last year’s draft<\/p>\n

PFF revisited each team’s<\/a> NFL draft<\/a> from 2019 and graded each draft. The categories were “excellent,” “above average,” “average,” and “below average.” Only six teams made the excellent category, and the lone NFC West team was the Cardinals<\/a>. Kyler Murray was a slam dunk, but he was also the first overall pick. Byron Murphy<\/a> was fine, even though he can’t cover Kendrick Bourne<\/a> if his life depended on it. After that? Second-round receiver Andy Isabella<\/a> finished the season with 189 yards receiving. Third round selection Zach Allen<\/a> appeared in four games, and Hakeem Butler<\/a> didn’t see the field.<\/p>\n

Here is what PFF said about the Niners draft:<\/p>\n

The 49ers<\/a> had the most impactful rookie class of any team easily in the NFL, and it’s easy to see why. Nick Bosa<\/a> (Pick: 2 | PFF Board: 2) broke the record for pressures in a season by a rookie with 80. Second-round pick Deebo Samuel<\/a> (Pick: 36 | PFF Board: 52) led all wide receivers, not just rookies, with 18 broken tackles on 57 catches.<\/p>\n

While they not only knocked it out of the park with their top two picks, they also hit on one of the steals of the draft. Fifth-round linebacker Dre Greenlaw<\/a> (Pick: 148 | PFF Board: N\/R) played 879 snaps, including the postseason, and earned a 72.6 coverage grade on the year.<\/p>\n
