The San Francisco 49ers look stronger on paper more than a week into free agency.

They've made smart moves to bolster key areas, but not every spot improved.

Overall, the team upgraded their defense while the offense still has holes.

The biggest win came on the defensive line.

They traded a third round pick to Dallas for Tackle, OSA, Odiei Zua, who's locked in

through 2028.

He's a top interior past rusher, fresh off a 4-year 80 million dollar deal with the Cowboys.

That move pairs nicely with Nick Bosa and first round pick Mikel Williams coming back from

torn ACLs.

Still, they lost Ed's rusher Bryce Huff to retirement, so they're eyeing a trade for

Minnesota's Jonathan Greenard using maybe a second rounder.

Meanwhile, the offensive line took a step back.

They lost starting left guard Spencer Burford, a 25-year-old to the Raiders.

Instead of a real replacement, they added backups like Bret Toth at center and Viderian

Low at Tackle.

To contend for a Super Bowl, the 49ers must draft a guard early, maybe in round 1 or 2,

and sort out a new deal for star left Tackle Trent.

Williams, it's a critical fix before training camp.
