DeCosta said he thinks the chemistry of the draft class will be strong.

"It'll be good," DeCosta told Harbaugh. "It was intentional, but we got a bunch of guys from Texas. I think it'll be good. We got a bunch of guys that love the game."

DeCosta added, that due to the coronavirus pandemic, keeping the team engaged will take some work.

"It's gonna take some work with the new reality," DeCosta said. "Gotta scope it all out. Keeping guys engaged, not just sitting there looking at the walls.
