PFF ranks 49ers offensive line 6th after two weeks The San Francisco 49ers came into 2018 with an offensive line that was hopefully beefed up. With the draft pick Frank Gore Jersey , extension, free agent signing, and the ongoing competition at right guard, it was a hope the line could become a strength instead of a weakness. Two weeks in and things aren’t so bad. Pro Football Focus has their offensive line rankings after two weeks, and you may have a double take when you see where the 49ers are ranked: Here’s what they said: Sixth is quite a jump for this group, but there’s much they can improve on. In 2017, before Jimmy Garoppolo went under center for the final five games, the line had several issues, notably protecting the quarterback in pass protection. It improved a great deal with Garoppolo’s abilty to get the ball out quick http://www.49erslockerroom.com/authentic-fred-warner-jersey , but it still needed work if they were going to keep Garoppolo upright. They drafted Mike McGlinchey with their first pick in the 2018 NFL draft and signed Weston Richburg in free agency. Laken Tomlinson signed an extension in the offseason while the right guard position is still ongoing between Mike Person and Joshua Garnett. The line gave up six sacks in Week 2 against the Detroit Lions, but some of those sacks are on the shoulders of Garoppolo who tucked the ball and took the hit rather than force something into tight coverage with the Lions’ grabby secondary. The rest of them are due to some of the line’s blocking and some play design, as broken down by James Brady. This is only two weeks and the 49ers have 14 more games to play before we can say the line has become a crowning achievement, but given some of the awful protection displayed last year, this is a great sign on how much things have been retooled.
