"Going into next season, there is no guarantee that this 49ers team is just going to get back to their championship aspirations and winning ways," Whitner said. "This roster is going to need an overhaul focusing on top-tier talent on this defensive line and quality depth at all positions."
"Think about how these 49ers teams were led; it was all defense. It was getting to the quarterback with a four-man rush, but they had elite defensive tackles in Arik Armstead and DeForest Buckner."
"The 49ers have been injured like no other team in the NFL, and the latest injury report reflects that. San Francisco also has dealt with unimaginable tragedy, dating back to before the regular season started when first-round draft pick and rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall was shot in the chest in an attempted armed robbery."
