The San Francisco 49ers have been one of the most successful teams in the NFL over the past four seasons, reaching three NFC Championship Games due largely to a combination of impressive talent on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball.

On paper, by drafting skill position players like Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, and George Kittle, while also trading for established stars like Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams, the 49ers have built one of the strongest rosters in the league.

Who are the most valuable players on the offensive side of the ball for the 49ers?

With minicamp complete and training camp over a month away, it's the perfect time for an interesting exercise with the 49ers offense: an all-offense fantasy draft using only current 49ers to determine the most valuable players on the team.

Teaming up with 49ers Rush's John Chapman, we sought to draft the best offensive rosters possible in a snake draft, with tough decisions at several positions in which the 49ers will likely entertain training camp battles for roster spots.

Here are the final rosters:

Quarterback

Team Rohan: Brock Purdy
Team John: Trey Lance

Running Backs

Team Rohan: Elijah Mitchell
Team John: Christian McCaffrey

Wide Receivers

Team Rohan: Brandon Aiyuk, Ray-Ray McCloud
Team John: Deebo Samuel, Jauan Jennings

Tight Ends

Team Rohan: Kyle Juszczyk
Team John: George Kittle

FLEX

Team Rohan: Jordan Mason
Team John: Danny Gray

Offensive Line

Team Rohan: Trent Williams, Aaron Banks, Jake Brendel, Jason Poe, Nick Zakelj
Team John: Matt Pryor, Jaylon Moore, Jon Feliciano, Spencer Burford, Colton McKivitz

In the exercise, there were some positions that involved significant depth, such as running back and quarterback, while other positions faced a lack of quality backups, such as tackle and tight end, forcing difficult decisions in the fantasy draft.

Who ended with the better roster?
