Death, taxes and the 49ers using their top first-round pick on a defensive lineman. It's happened three times already under general manager John Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan. The Athletic's draft expert praises Robinson's abilities to disrupt the game.
If no offensive tackle stands out, the 49ers prioritize the best player available, like Newton, who is noted for his consistency and durability over the past four seasons.
In the second round, the focus shifts to offensive tackles like Fisher with notable upside, while Rosengarten stands out for his speed, training under former 49er Joe Staley, with an impressive record of pass-blocking snaps.
Rosengarten's adaptability, speed, and previous training under schemes borrowed from Shanahan's playbook, along with a high school coach's influence, make him a promising offensive line prospect.
