The 49ers’ recent rookie class has a chance to make an instant impact in 2016. San Francisco has one of the league’s youngest rosters that will run an entirely new system under first-year coach Chip Kelly.

This latest batch of rookies was hand picked by general manager Trent Baalke to run Kelly’s system, specifically.

The 49ers drafted 11 players in the recent NFL draft, many of whom will compete for significant playing time once training camp starts at the end of July.

Here’s what we know about the drafted rookies after watching them on the practice field during the recently-concluded offseason program:

DE DeForest Buckner

Round 1, Pick 7

Buckner worked primarily with the third team during the recent minicamp. But that doesn’t mean much. He’s likely to play a significant amount in 2016 after playing nearly all of the defensive snaps during his senior season at Oregon. Buckner’s current and former college teammate Arik Armstead last season finished third among 49ers’ defensive linemen in snap percentage, playing 33 percent of the snaps among a seven-player rotation. Expect something similar for Buckner, who will likely be on the field in sub packages, which the 49ers used two-thirds of the time last season. If Buckner progresses as the season goes on, he may find himself starting.

OG Joshua Garnett

Round 1, Pick 28

Garnett was unable to participate in the offseason program until last week’s minicamp, where he worked primarily with the third team at both left and right guard. But the 49ers didn’t trade three picks to take Garnett so he could get seasoning on the bench. He’s likely to start right away. The question becomes which side he plays. Free-agent addition Zane Beadles spent the entire offseason program playing left guard next to Joe Staley while the 49ers rotated in Brandon Thomas and Andrew Tiller at right guard. That’s the likely spot for Garnett, already one of the team’s best run blockers, once he becomes more acclimated to Kelly’s system.

CB Will Redmond

Round 3, Pick 5 (68 overall)

Redmond is still recovering from an ACL tear suffered during an October practice with Mississippi State. It’s unlikely he’ll be able to begin competing for playing time six weeks after spending minicamp rehabbing instead of participating in drills. Once he’s on the field, expect Redmond to get a long look at nickel cornerback while former first-round pick Jimmie Ward transitions to cornerback on the outside. The 49ers want Ward to play 100 percent of the snaps. Redmond doesn’t possess great size (measuring 5-foot-11, 182 pounds at the combine), but he’s one of the best athletes in the secondary when healthy. If he’s able to recover from his injury, look for Redmond to compete with Chris Davis and Keith Reaser for the slot corner job if Ward remains on the outside in sub packages. There’s a chance Redmond spends the season on injured reserve if his knee isn’t recovered in time to compete for a role.

CB Rashard Robinson

Round 4, Pick 35 (133)

Robinson flashed serious cover skills, but also took some lumps as the offseason program wore on. He’s the team’s most physically gifted cornerback, standing 6-foot-1 with long 32 1/4-inch arms. He also ran a 4.43-second 40-yard dash at LSU’s pro day. He’s competitive and relishes getting in opponents’ heads with trash talk. But he must balance his aggression to avoid getting taken advantage of in man-to-man coverage. Robinson has the upside to start. But for now, with Ward and Tramaine Brock earmarked for starting roles, Robinson will compete to play in sub packages and on special teams. If he realizes his potential and channels his aggression, he’s candidate for a significant role in the secondary as a rookie.

DE Ronald Blair

Round 5, Pick 3 (142)

Blair worked alongside Buckner with the third team at defensive end, but also showed versatility playing on the edge. At 6-foot-2 and 284 pounds, Blair has the size to line up all over the defensive front in sub packages giving the 49ers some much-needed depth. Without pads, however, it’s hard to tell how effective Blair will be from the jump. The 49ers put a lot on his plate during minicamp by having him try out different positions and techniques. It’s fair to wonder if he’s better served focusing on one spot. But it’s safe to assume Blair will compete for a chance to be a part of the rotation along the defensive front. We’re thinking he plays 20-25 percent of the defensive snaps as a rookie. Tony Jerod-Eddie played 25 percent last season.

OL John Theus

Round 5, Pick 6 (145)

OL Fahn Cooper

Round 5, Pick 37 (174)

Theus played both tackle spots with the second and third team, showing versatility. He has a chance to compete for the “swing” tackle role. We didn’t see Cooper play left tackle, but he played both spots on the right side of the line. Cooper looks stronger and more stout than Theus, but lacks the athleticism and quick feet to play on the left side. Both players are intriguing options in the competition to start at right tackle with Erik Pears and Trent Brown, who haven’t done much to separate themselves.

QB Jeff Driskel

Round 6, Pick 32 (207)

We wrote about Driskel earlier this week, noting it’s far too early to consider him as a starter this year. But he offers an intriguing skill set and some serious athleticism. For now, he’s competing for a roster spot with Thad Lewis. The 49ers haven’t kept three quarterbacks on the 53-man roster in recent seasons, but that could change under Kelly. Driskel spent time on special teams adding to his value if he were to make the roster. Depending on how he plays during the preseason, the 49ers might have a hard time stashing him on the practice squad leaving him open to sign with another team. Driskel was the first quarterback the 49ers drafted since taking B.J. Daniels in the seventh round in 2013. Given the uncertainty surrounding Blaine Gabbert and Colin Kaepernick, it wouldn’t hurt to try and develop Driskel for the long haul.

RB Kelvin Taylor

Round 6, Pick 36 (211)

One of San Francisco’s curious decisions in the draft was to wait until the sixth round to find a potential back up to Carlos Hyde, who missed seven games after suffering a stress fracture in his foot last season. Already on the roster were former street free agents Shaun Draughn and DuJuan Harris, along with last year’s fourth-round pick Mike Davis, who averaged 1.7 yards per carry in 2015. There’s an opportunity for Taylor to jump all the way up to No. 2 on the depth chart with a good training camp. After all, Kelly has a keen eye for running backs, and there might be something specific about Taylor’s running style that Kelly wants to take advantage of. He’s small (5-foot-10, 207), but decisive, and ran a similar zone-read scheme at Florida that Kelly employs.

WR Aaron Burbridge

Round 6, Pick 38 (213)

There might not be a more wide-open battle for playing time than for the second receiver spot opposite Torrey Smith. That bodes well for Burbridge, who showed well on tape for Michigan State despite pedestrian measurables at the combine (6-foot, 206 pounds, 4.56 40, 30.5-inch vertical). Burbridge didn’t do much to stand out during minicamp, but he might excel once the pads come on while defenders get more aggressive in practice. With a strong showing in training camp and the preseason, there’s no reason why Burbridge couldn’t play himself into the rotation.

CB Prince Charles Iworah

Round 7, Pick 28 (249)

Iworah is a freak athlete. At his Western Kentucky pro day he ran a 4.32 40 adding 25 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press. He worked primarily with the third and fourth teams during minicamp. Cornerback is crowded on San Francisco’s depth chart, particularly with the addition of Redmond and Robinson in the earlier rounds of the draft. It’s likely Iworah gets a practice squad invite if he proves worthy during training camp and the preseason.
