The San Francisco 49ers are suddenly everyone’s favorite up-and-coming team with the additions of Richard Sherman, Weston Richburg and Jerick McKinnon. Jimmy Garoppolo’s presence might have something to do with it as well. Even so,nfl youth jerseys the organization is a year and a half removed from a 2-14 campaign with one of the NFL’s worst rosters. More will be done to improve the team’s talent.
Wide Receiver
Kyle Shanahan’s offense is far from complete. Sure, Garoppolo and McKinnon will make the scheme more effective after the 49ers slogged through the first half of last season. However, this unit still lacks a true X-receiver. Whereas Marquise Goodwin emerged as nfl youth jerseys cheap Garoppolo’s favorite target, Shanahan’s system has been at its best leaning on Andre Johnson and Julio Jones, in Houston and Atlanta respectively. Granted, a wide receiver prospect of that caliber isn’t in this year’s draft class, but a bigger target who can consistently win outside the numbers is essential to the unit’s long-term plans. 
Edge-Rusher
It’s amazing San Francisco needs more of an edge presence after investing three straight first-round draft picks on defensive ends, but it’s true. Arik Armstead, DeForest Buckner and Solomon Thomas aren’t true edge-rushers. Each is far more effective rushing from the interior.cheap nfl youth jerseys Meanwhile, Aaron Lynch is a free agent, and the team didn’t pick up Elvis Dumervil’s option, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. nfl youth jersey Dumervil was the only Niners defender to register more than three sacks last season.
Cornerback
The idea of Sherman playing his old team twice next season is wonderful. Revenge stories often provide great storylines in sports. However, the 49ers would be foolish not to hedge their bet on a soon-to-be 30-year-old defensive back coming off a torn Achilles tendon.nfl replica jerseys cheap Even if Sherman returns to form, San Francisco isn’t exactly flush with cornerback talent.
