2023 Fantasy Outlook
The second overall pick in the 2019 draft is the complete package athletically, and Bosa led the league in both sacks (18.5) and QB pressures (56) last year despite missing a game due to a groin strain. He's surrounded by talent in San Francisco but could get additional help off the edge if 2022 second-round pick Drake Jackson has a breakout campaign. The loss of defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans is big, but veteran coach Steve Wilks is a capable replacement. The last time Wilks held the DC title, Myles Garrett notched a sack a game for Cleveland, a pace Bosa's already shown he can exceed. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Produces double-digit sacks
Bosa finished the 2023 regular season with 53 tackles (34 solo), 10.5 sacks and two forced fumbles while starting all 17 games for San Francisco.
ANALYSIS
Bosa had a down year based on the lofty standards he set for himself by averaging 17 sacks per year over his previous two campaigns. The 2022 Defensive Player of the Year was not one of the five finalists for the award this season, further highlighting the superstar's underwhelming final results. Even with all of the attention opposing offensive lines direct Bosa's way, the premier edge rusher still coasted to double-digit sacks for the third consecutive season. With a lucrative five-year contract signed this past September, Bosa will be bookending a dominant San Francisco defensive line for the foreseeable future.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Upset over early morning alarm
Bosa was one of several 49ers players who were upset by an early morning fire alarm at their team hotel Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Bosa, who Wagoner explains is very keen on his routines, was suspicious about the official declaration that the alarm was triggered accidentally. The talented pass rusher was still asleep when the alarm went off at 6 a.m. local time in Las Vegas, but he noted he was sure "somebody did it" yet added that the 49ers were talking a "no excuses" approach to any adversity they're encountering leading up to Sunday's Super Bowl LVIII matchup against the Chiefs.

2019
No longer the Lesser Bosa, Nick broke out emphatically in 2021, a year after suffering an ACL
tear. After 15.5 sacks in 801 snaps, it’s clear that Nick is every bit the threat that brother Joey is.
Nick now joins his brother as a top-5 DL, and one who can compete to be DL1 in IDP leagues.
Only 25 in October, Bosa is still improving. It doesn’t hurt that second-year DC DeMeco Ryans
looks like one of the league’s best.
