Top 10 Best Offensive Tackles
The 49ers Family lost one of the franchise’s all-time greats when Cas Banaszek died Dec. 4 at age 74. San Francisco’s first-round draft pick in 1967, Banaszek settled in the next season as a cornerstone starter at right tackle throughout the team’s first championship era, combining with Len Rohde along a star-studded offensive line to give the 49ers one of the greatest tackle tandems in franchise history. Banaszek was a standout in his own right, helping guide San Francisco to three consecutive NFC West titles from 1970-1972 and providing the team with enduring excellence to land a prominent position on this list of the best offensive tackles in 49ers history.

Along the way, those ups and downs were highlighted and accentuated by many shining moments and memorable players, including some of the greatest the franchise ever has seen. Here, The Niner Report looks back at 10 years gone by and selects the best of the best that the 49ers put on the field during the past decade.

Top 10 Worst FA Failures
When the 49ers released Malcolm Smith at their final roster cutdown in late August, it left the team with very little return for the huge investment San Francisco made on the veteran linebacker in 2017 free agency.
