What does the San Francisco 49ers 53-man depth chart look like after the 2026 NFL draft

The San Francisco 49ers nearly lost one of their superstars to their biggest rival in the NFL draft.

The 49ers have announced a group of eight undrafted rookie additions to their roster. Punter Jack Bouwmeester is part of the group. Bouwmeester grew up in Australia and spent three years at Utah before transferring to Texas in 2025. He averaged 44.5 yards per kick and joins Corliss Waitman as punter options for the Niners.

The San Francisco 49ers made a great decision trading Dee Winters to the Dallas Cowboys

Dugger, 22, played two seasons for Georgetown in the FCS before going to Louisiana for the past two seasons. He should slide into a reserve role in that group pretty quickly now that Winters is out, and he'll have a great veteran to learn from in Fred Warner.
