OFFENSIVE NEEDS: 49ers Would be WISE to Attack the Offensive Line in Draft and Free Agency

Can the San Francisco 49ers solve their biggest offensive challenges before the 2026 season? Brian Peacock and Eric Crocker break down the most pressing roster needs, spotlighting the uncertainty behind Brock Purdy at quarterback—could Mac Jones be traded, and is Curtis Rourke ready as backup? The conversation also debates the urgency of landing a true WR1, given Juwan Jennings’ free agency and questions about Ricky Piersoll’s health, while exploring tight end depth following George Kittle’s Achilles injury.

The hosts argue whether offensive line upgrades should top the team’s priority list, noting Trent Williams’ age and the need for left guard and future tackles. Insights into potential draft targets like Oregon’s Kenyan Sadiq as a versatile pass catcher, alongside speculation about trade and free agent possibilities, make this a must-listen for fans hot on 49ers offseason strategy. Which offensive position deserves the biggest investment to keep San Francisco contending?

San Francisco 49ers fans are treated to daily news and analysis with Locked On 49ers, hosted by football analyst Brian Peacock and former NFL/AFL cornerback Eric Crocker.
