Of all the players who deserved to be treated well by the San Francisco 49ers, it's George Kittle. He is coming off an amazing 2024 season where he earned an All-Pro honor. Kittle was by far the best player on the 49ers in an abysmal year where they finished with six wins. Unfortunately, the 49ers aren't rewarding him for his valiant efforts last season. According to The Athletic's Mike Silver, the 49ers and Kittle are "far apart" on a new deal.

A few positions are on the table for the San Francisco 49ers when they make their selection with the 11th pick. Drafting a defensive tackle is the likeliest selection. It is their most glaring need and it allows them to draft one of the better players available. That is the best-case scenario when a team gets a sweet prospect who also addresses a need. And that is exactly what Pro Football Network has the 49ers doing in their latest mock draft.

Drafting a defensive tackle with the 11th pick is the likeliest scenario for the San Francisco 49ers. It is their most glaring need after all, and it just so happens this year's draft is loaded with excellent players in that position. The 49ers could pass up on taking one at No. 11. That way, they can still get a good player at one of the thinner positions and still find a solid defensive tackle later. But it may be tough for the 49ers to do that since they need an immediate impact player.

It's crazy to fathom, given the offseason they've had, but there is a case to be made that the 49ers still have a Super Bowl window open in 2025. Just ask Pro Football Focus. They would tell you that the Super Bowl window is still open for the 49ers entering 2025. They have the 49ers ranked with the seventh-best window in the league. "Some might argue that San Francisco's Super Bowl window was abruptly shut in 2024 when the 49ers finished last in their division and missed the playoffs.

Drafting a cornerback probably isn't the most popular selection the 49ers can make with the 11th pick. It is not their most glaring need, like a defensive tackle or a defensive end is. The 49ers can take either of those two most needed positions while also drafting one of the better players available at No. 11. However, a cornerback will likely be one of the better, if not the best, players available as well.

Only one week left until the NFL draft commences. The San Francisco 49ers have been mocked to draft several positions. Some of them have been for need, while others have been the best player available. It is usually best to draft the best player available versus need. But sometimes there are scenarios where a team gets both. That scenario should be present for the 49ers when they make their 11th pick. What that scenario looks like is if they take a cornerback.

Linebacker is a position of need for the San Francisco 49ers. It only emphasized once Dre Greenlaw left in free agency for the Denver Broncos. The 49ers only have Fred Warner to anchor the position. However, they are looking at Dee Winters to step up and potentially be Warner's running mate like Greenlaw was. He did show some promise in 2024, so it's possible. Still, the 49ers can't bank on Winters alone.

The linebacker position became one of the top positions of need for the 49ers when Dre Greenlaw departed for the Broncos. Fred Warner is the lone anchor at the position. The 49ers are looking at Dee Winters to step up and compete this year for the starting role, but he can't be their only option. A linebacker must be taken in this year's draft at some point. Pro Football Network advises the 49ers to target Georgia linebacker Smael Mondon Jr. on Day 3 of the draft.

Several scenarios can play out for the San Francisco 49ers in the first round of the NFL draft. Some will be in their favor, while others will make it a struggle for them. The perfect first-round draft scenario for the 49ers sets them up with plenty of options with the 11th pick. What does that entail? The 49ers will want at least two quarterbacks to go in the top 10, a very likely scenario. Cam Ward is a lock to the Titans at No. 1 overall, and Shadeur Sanders should get scooped by someone.
