The San Francisco 49ers, despite their need for offensive tackles, remained undrafted in this position in the 2025 NFL draft. General manager John Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan have specific criteria for tackles. Even with potential options, they didn't select any. The team finally took an offensive lineman, Connor Colby, in the seventh round, but he's likely to be a guard. The signing of veteran D.J. Humphries provides some presence, but the long-term solution remains uncertain.

The Niners' focus on the defensive line this year may force them to invest more in the offensive front in 2026.
