FILE - In this Oct. 28, 2018, file photo, San Francisco 49ers' DeForest Buckner (99), Ronald Blair III (98) and Solomon Thomas (94) wait for a play against the Arizona Cardinals during the first half of an NFL football game in Glendale, Ariz. Thomas, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2017 draft, has struggled even to get onto the field in pass-rushing situations. He lacks the speed to come off the edge and hasn't shown the ability to be one of the team's top inside rushers so he has been mostly relegated to being only a base defender.

FILE - In this Sept. 30. 2018, file photo, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen throws against the Seattle Seahawks during the first half of an NFL football game in Glendale, Ariz. San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan took only a cursory look at Rosen in his draft preparation last spring since the 49ers already had franchise quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in place. Shanahan studied Rosen a lot more closely this week after he made his first career start in the NFL because now he has to face him when the Arizona Cardinals visit the 49ers.

FILE - In this Saturday, Aug. 25, 2018 file photo, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (10) throws before an NFL preseason football game against the Indianapolis Colts in Indianapolis. When Jimmy Garoppolo got thrown into the lineup as San Francisco's quarterback just weeks after joining the 49ers, simply getting a play off in time was an accomplishment. Garoppolo overcame that limited knowledge of coach Kyle Shanahan's offense to put together an impressive 5-0 finish to the season as one of the NFL's most productive quarterbacks down the stretch.(AP Photo/Michael Conroy, File)
