The 49ers are well-respected by their peers. You don’t roll into the playoffs on a 10-game win streak without some star players.

On Wednesday, four Niners players were recognized on the NFL Players’ Association’s All-Pro first team. Traditionally, NFL’s postseason awards have been voted on by the media. This season, the NFLPA has given the players a chance to determine who are the top dogs.

Defensive player of the Year front-runner Nick Bosa highlights the Niners quartet on the All-Pro first team, along with left tackle Trent Williams, linebacker Fred Warner and fullback Kyle Juszczyk.

Bosa led the NFL with 18.5 sacks this season while also finishing as Pro Football Focus’ seventh-best ranked edge defender against the run. Williams was ranked PFF’s top tackle for the third year in a row. Warner was one of just two linebackers elected to the squad, a nod to his all-around game as a run-stuffer and pass coverage. Juice remains the standard in the NFL when it comes to being a rush threat, blocking and pass catching.
