The 2019 NFL Draft is underway in Nashville, and FTW’s lead NFL writer Steven Ruiz is grading picks and offering analysis on how each player will fit with his new team.
No. 2: Nick Bosa, Edge Ohio State
Analysis: There was no need to overthink this: The 49ers had a need at edge rusher, and Nick Bosa is the most polished edge prospect to enter the league in years. It’s easy to compare Bosa to his brother Joey, but here’s a scary thought: Nick has even more power and all the athletic traits we saw in Joey back in 2015. The 49ers’ pass rush is scary with Dee Ford, DeForest Buckner and, now, Bosa on the defensive line.
