The 49ers will have an opportunity to select an offensive lineman in the early rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft with picks No. 11 and No. 43, but hints from John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan have made it appear unlikely. The team lost two starting linemen during free agency, with Aaron Banks signing a four-year contract with the Green Bay Packers worth $77 million and Jaylon Moore, who now is a member of the Kansas City Chiefs after signing a two-year, $30 million contract.

PALM BEACH, Fla. — Bouncing back from a 6-11 2024 NFL season will be a challenge for the 49ers, but coach Kyle Shanahan is receiving a little help from a friend. The re-hiring of Robert Saleh as San Francisco's defensive coordinator could be considered the biggest “free-agent” signing of the 49ers' offseason. Shanahan recently shared during an open session at the NFL Annual meeting why bringing the defensive guru back to the Bay Area was so important. "We talk about everything,” Shanahan said.
