Who are you taking?PDTShareTweetShareShareWho is one player on the defensive line that will break out in 2019?Health will be key for the San Francisco 49ers if they want to make the leap to the playoffs in 2019. Ironically enough, they took a chance on some players with injury questions in free agency. Somebody is going to have a big year on the 49ers defense that none of us are expecting. Life is a lot easier if you have three people on the defensive line that can get a sack on any given play. If the Niners play their cards right, they’ll be heading into the season with three high quality players that can rush the passer. All that’ll do is allow someone else to take advantage of their opportunity. Who will that be, though?Today we’ll talk about the 4 options it could be on the defensive line. The first overall pick doesn’t count.Options, options, optionsThere are a couple of obvious options as well as a couple of afterthoughts. You may have heard the Niners have a couple of former first round picks that haven’t panned out. This is likely a make or break it year for Solomon Thomas and Arik Armstead. As a third option—with nothing but 1-on-1’s—that could be exactly what the doctor ordered. Ronald Blair finished the season with 5.5 sacks. He also finished the season with 12 pressures. He will need to generate pressure at a much higher rate. Perhaps as a third rusher when either Dee Ford or first round draft pick kicks inside Ahkello Witherspoon Jersey , Blair could be the beneficiary of that. Let’s say Kentavius Street fully recovers from injury. Street was known as a very good athlete that hustles all over the field. He could also be the type of player that breaks out.Who do you think it will be, and why? This is going to be fascinating to find out"ProFootballTalk is reporting that the San Francisco 49ers are shopping Solomon Thomas, the third pick in the 2017 draft. This is going to open up Pandora’s box. While this really shouldn’t come as a surprise—as these rumors have been floating around for over a month now—it still is. Many fans are upset as the team has done Thomas zero favors with his two years with the Niners. He probably shouldn’t have been playing outside. Predominantly, anyways. Thomas played 21% of his snaps inside in 2018. Many of those came after Week 12, when he was playing his best football.I’ve seen many people reading this as the 49ers are interested in drafting Quinnen Williams. Other people seem to think it means that the team is expecting to get Nick Bosa. Nobody knows. What I’m interested in is what sort of compensation the team can get for Thomas. You’re not going to get a first or second-round pick. That just isn’t happening. While you can project what Thomas can be, teams aren’t going to give that up for a guy that hasn’t produced. If a team called today and said they are offering a third-round pick DeForest Buckner Jersey , I’d take it. Realistically, Thomas will be traded for something later than that. I know it may not seem right, considering where he was drafted, but that just doesn’t matter two years later. It’s about what Thomas has put on the field. Today is going to be a wild ride. What would you accept in a trade for Thomas, assuming you’re willing to even make a deal.
