Obviously not an entire career, but as far as a rookie season goes, I can't name a better pick ever that had a better, more memorable more impactful season.

Truly an amazing season and was everything advertised times 1000.

What a great pick!!!

Aldons rookie year was f**king amazing man

True. Dude had like 14 sacks or something, but he wasn't an every down player for us. He was a pass rush specialist.

As good as Bosa has been on the pass rush, his impact has been wider than that.

True true. But then there's Patrick Willis's rookie year. Not knocking Bosa cause I love him but we have had some really good defensive rookies

I agree. Bosa is not only a relentless pass rusher but he is great a defending the run. He also has an INT. He really does have the whole package. Joe Thomas (the retired tackle) said Bosa uses his Tai Kwon Do hand skills really well.

Agree, but I think the X factor is Dee Ford.

I'm ok with them meeting at the QB and tearing him apart to see who gets the sack.
Agree. You take out the QB, you take out the offense.

The thing about Bosa is that hes still learning the mental side of the game. Once he gets that down, hes in the hall of fame. Like charles and fred, once they put the fear of god in an offense, it was game over.

I can see our offense get better without any draft picks this year. Jalen Hurd is an unknown for example. I can see Kyle recruiting another undrafted NCAA sprinter champion to challenge Coleman and Wilson. On defense, I'd venture to say if we use our 32nd pick on defense, our defense can get better too.

What makes Bosa so good is Buckner though. Without a great DT to pair with Bosa, he'll just be another all pro. But with Buckner by his side- and Bosa continues to get better mentally - hes a shoo in for the Hall of fame.

Similarly on the other side, Dee Ford paired with either Arik or Solomon at DT, and Dee Ford can dominate games too.

Let's not forget about our offensive rookie show outs also like Lamichael James and AJ Jenkins

No question they work in tandem. If they can sign AA and Ford is a little healthier next year, I can see this D line being even better. Remember, this is only their 1st year together and the longer they play together the more they will be able to stunt and play off each other.

Patrick Willis has got to be number 1. Wasn't he All-Pro right out of the gate? Bryant Young had a great rookie year. As did Aldon Smith.

That's interesting. I'm not fan at all at what Bosa said, but he was what, 17 or 18 years old? Then we have two "men" who beat on women and children. Interesting the stories that are selected.
Bosa has amazing Hussle. I see him constantly making tackles on WR etc. he doesn't stop just cause the ball is past him

No kidding. Pathetic really. Bosa was like 16 at the time and didn't even make any over the top statements himself. He was a kid who 'liked' a few posts. Why is KC the media darlings and being given a pass while we hear about this and 'pornstar' Jimmy G? Its stupid.

Actually if he's 22 now and it was 2012 then that would make him 15ish at the time. My daughter is 16 and she can be a knuckle head.

Don't forget they had no intentions of cutting Kareem Hunt until the video came out. They had known about the incident for how long?

Eggs actly.

I'm not clicking on that sportingnews article about Bosa. I figured that might come back around as ppl looked to capitalize on the success he's had and our SB run. I'm not going to support trash journalism like that.

I feel bad enough for accidentally clicking on a Grant Cohn article back in week 6. Don't need anything else on my conscious.
