Who are the top 3 sack leaders for the 49ers?

Officially, Bryant Young (89.5 sacks), Charles Haley (66.5) and Dana Stubblefield (46.5) rank as the top three sack leaders in 49ers history. However, sacks were not officially recorded until 1982. 49ers records indicate that Cedrick Hardman, who played with the 49ers from 1970-79, registered 106.5 sacks for the 49ers. Hardman's teammate Tommy Hart (with 49ers from 1968-77) is unofficially credited with 106 sacks. It is reasonable to believe that former 49er greats such as Leo Nomellini and Charlie Krueger probably logged a significant number of sacks during their long careers. Unfortunately, their sack totals were not recorded and are lost to history.
