GM John Lynch believes the 49ers took a step in the right direction with the 2024 draft class, and explains why the 49ers can’t continue to spend as much cash

The 49ers have to draft an offensive tackle this year. They haven't drafted one since 2021, Jaylon Moore is an impending free agent, Colton McKivitz will be a free agent in 2025 and Trent Williams misses games every year plus he will turn 37 in July.

Even if the San Francisco 49ers and George Kittle don't come to a contract agreement, it's something that general manager John Lynch isn't worried about. Despite the 49ers having two options to replace Kittle in the 2025 NFL Draft, it's clear that both sides want to have one another back.
