Beginning today, I will be doing a 9-part series where I rank each player, from 1-91, & of course were starting today with players 81-91.
Note: The reason I’m doing 91 is because the 49ers are able to carry Alfredo Gutierrez on their roster without him counting against the 90-man limit.
-
RT 77 Alfredo Gutierrez(2022)
2022 Cap Number: $705,000
Chance at making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: Gutierrez is back with the 49ers, on a 1-year deal, worth $705,000, but he’s still raw, so he’s a big time longshot to make the 49ers final roster, but he should be on the teams’ practice squad, where he won’t count against the cap, or practice squad limit, nor will he be eligible to play during the regular season.
-
SLB 40 Marcelino McCrary-Ball(2024)
2022 Cap Number: $711,666
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: The 49ers gave McCrary-Ball $120,000 in guaranteed money, so they obviously like him, but his chances of making the active roster are long, but he could be a candidate for the teams’ practice squad.
-
LT 78 Sam Schlueter(2024)
2022 Cap Number: $706,666
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: The 49ers signed Schlueter as a UDFA out of Minnesota, but the 49ers have a crowd on the depth chart when it comes to offensive tackles, so he’s a longshot.
-
DT 77 Kevin Atkins(2024)
2022 Cap Number: $706,666
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: The 49ers added Atkins as a UDFA out of Fresno State, but his shot to make it is long, he’d have to outplay the likes of Kevin Givens, & Maurice Hurst Jr., so he’s a longshot.
-
WLB 49 Segun Olubi(2024)
2022 Cap Number: $706,000
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: The 49ers only gave a $3,000 signing bonus to Olubi, so his best shot is to be signed to the teams’ practice squad, so he’s a longshot.
-
WLB 59 Curtis Robinson(2022)
2022 Cap Number: $825,000
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: Robinson played in a couple games in 2021, but I don’t see him making the team, so he’s a longshot.
-
FB 40 Josh Hokit(2022)
2022 Cap Number: $705,000
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: The 49ers have the best fullback in the NFL in Kyle Juszcyzk, so Hokit has literally no shot at making the team barring an injury.
-
NT 78 Chris Slayton(2022)
2022 Cap Number: $705,000
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: Slayton was on the 49ers practice squad in 2021, but with the signing of Hassan Ridgeway, & Javon Kinlaw expected to play the 2i/NT spot, Slayton is a longshot.
-
RG 66 Keaton Sutherland(2022)
2022 Cap Number: $895,000
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: Sutherland was signed to a reserve/future deal, but with all the lineman the 49ers have added over the past 2 drafts, it’s highly unlikely he makes the team.
-
WR 81 Austin Mack(2022)
2022 Cap Number: $825,000
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: With so many receivers ahead of Mack, it’s unlikely he makes the team.
-
CB 24 Ka’dar Hollman(2022)
2022 Cap Number: $895,000
Chance of making Roster: Longshot
Analysis: The 49ers added Hollman on a reserve/future deal, but he’s got slim chance of making the team.
