2024 season: 6-11, fourth at NFC West, missed qualifiers
Preview: Brock Purdy’s off -season has arrived. The 49ers failed to obtain a Super Bowl title at the Recruit Contract window by Purdy (four years, $ 3.7 million). While he approaches the last year of this agreement, Purdy is due to one of the largest salary increases in the history of the League.
The 49ers are fully supposed to give it this increase. So what size of an increase will be secure? Tua Tagovailoa ($ 53.1 million), Trevor Lawrence ($ 55 million), Jordan Love ($ 55 million) and Jared Goff ($ 53 million) have all signed recent extensions greater than $ 53 million per year, while Dak Prescott broke the bank with an annual salary of $ 60 million with the contract september.
Where Purdy comes across this specter will be his and 49ers, but he will not be cheap after having led his team to a Super Bowl and two NFC championship games during his first three seasons as a pro. There is much more to approach in an offseason of the 49ers critical, but everything else is secondary in Purdy.
NFLPA report card
Classification: 8th
The players gave the 49ers positive comments in almost all categories, team facilities, restaurants and a strong culture created by coaching and property. The biggest complaint concerned the team that invoices childcare services during home matches, what another NFL team does.
Key -free agents
CB Charvarius Ward
LG Aaron Banks
LB DE’VONDRE CAMPBELL
LB DRE GREENLAW
RB Jordan Mason (limited)
S talked hvenging
Who is in / out: Greenlaw and Hufanga are key defenders who each come with history of injuries. Greenlaw missed most of 2024 with an Achilles tear, while a wrist injury and a recovery of an ACL Tear limited Hufanga this season. The 49ers will have a lot to consider when calculating the future of each player with the team.
The 49ers have signed the Dedodomore Lenoir corner to an extension of $ 92 million in November which could make Ward less priority. Given the history of the injuries of Christian McCaffrey and Mason’s performance in his place in 2024, the 49ers would surely like to keep Mason. The price can ultimately prove to be too high to be equaled, and Mason could mark a precious capital of Precious Project in San Francisco in return as a limited free agent.
Key needs for free agent
Offensive line
Defensive line / rush to the pass
Back
Why the holes? The 49ers need upgrades on the two lines after gaps in the trenches have played a big role in their disappointing 2024 season. If the banks are walking free -referee, it is one more hole that they will have to fill in advance in addition to potential improvements in the center and to the right alongside an aging Trent Williams.
The 49ers ranked in the lower third of the league in bags in 2024 and need a young playmaker in front of Nick Bosa.
Do they have the money?
The 49ers enter the offseason with around $ 47 million in wage ceiling space, which is in the upper half of the NFL, For Spotrac. The alleged agreement of Purdy will eat an important part of this space.
Notable potential cuts
Wr Deebo Samuel Sr.
Dt Javon Hargrave
Why they might have left: Samuel, who is 29 years old in January, approaches the third year of a $ 71 million contract over three years to which he no longer plays. In addition, he wants a change of decor. The 49ers have invested elsewhere in the wide receiver in Brandon Aiyuk, Ricky Pearsall and Jauan Jennings. If they cannot find a trading partner, keeping or cutting Samuel would have Important implications of the salary ceilingAnd the 49ers will be in a link to understand the best option.
Hargrave, 31, is not the same player as him when the 49ers signed him for a contract of $ 84 million over four years as free agent in 2023, and the 49ers restructured his agreement to create a potential in June. He and Samuel are part of a trend of aging players at high prices that the 49ers hoped to have helped to lead them to a Super Bowl title.

Good draft adjustment
Kelvin Banks Jr, OL, Texas
Why him? There will be a competition for the left guard Aaron Banks in a free agency. The Colton McKivitz right platform should play the second year of a $ 4.6 million contract over two years; The 49ers should consider long -term upgrade to the position. And Trent Williams does not become younger. Banks is one of the best project line players and can play inside and out in several places on the offensive line. It would be an ideal adjustment in San Francisco.
The monitoring of the recovery of Christian McCaffrey and Brandon Aiyuk will also be important, but the possibility of starting from Deebo Samuel would be a Major of Aiguille. The 49ers have a potential This offseason, and there would be major ramifications if Samuel was exchanged or released. George Kittle, Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall would obtain significant fantasy increases if San Francisco went from Samuel during the offseason. —Dalton del don
