Chris Simms explains why Jimmy Garoppolo is more ready to lead the 49ers back to the Super Bowl despite Trey Lance's big upside.

The 49ers have signed one of their 2021 draft picks.

According to multiple reports, second-round guard Aaron Banks is the first member of the group to agree to a deal.

Banks became a starter at Notre Dame during the 2018 and remained in that role through the rest of his time at South Bend. He was named an All-American after the 2020 season and brings a lot of size -- 6'5" and 325 pounds -- to the 49ers offensive line.

Banks will likely be in the mix for a starting job this summer and he’ll be playing next to another offseason acquisition in center Alex Mack if he winds up winning that competition.
