Rumor: 49ers looking to trade up to 13 or 14...

It could get interesting if Gettleman is interested. SF certainly has a huge need at the DL.

I think SF is targeting Sheldon Richardson with the pick. The last time Harbaugh took a Defender out of MIZZOU, he came up with a kid named Aldon Smith. Harbaugh would love to add a DT who can penetrate inside like Sheldon.

If SF is serious, it'll depend on how much interest the Saints and we (Panthers) are showing at taking a DT. If SF gets the feeling that we are sure to pick Sheldon, SF will make the trade with the Jets (have shown interest that they want to trade down) to move right infront of us and take Sheldon. But, if we are showing that we have little interest in Sheldon and the Saints are more interested in Sheldon, SF would make the deal with us to jump infront of NO. That's my opinion.

Then there's that whole, dollar-3 dimes thing. Wouldn't it be smarter of the 9ers to deal with the Jets?

Whoever we get at 14 is going to be a dime on the surface. There's no dollars outside of the top 7-10 picks....

The path to getting better and becoming a contender is knowing where you are in the world compared to those you wish to be.

I could argue the Niners took a trade like this that we offered and spun it into their current dominate roster.

A bit yoda-ish but I get your point. If we get multiple draft picks this year out of it then why not. Not a huge difference in talent in this years draft from 14-31.

Fortuitous, circumstances will be. Reach in this draft we won't. (Bad yoda voice)

      The Seattle Seahawks have agreed to a one-year contract with free agent wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, a source told ESPN.   The Seahawks are in need of receiving help for new quarterback Sam Darnold after agreeing to trade DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers and releasing Tyler Lockett.   In Seattle, Valdes-Scantling will be reunited with Klint Kubiak, the new Seahawks offensive coordinator who was Valdes-Scantling's offensive coordinator last season with the New Orleans Saints.

      Will the Falcons actually keep Kirk Cousins?  At the NFL combine, Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot said the team would NOT be releasing Kirk Cousins. So will the Falcons actually go through with keeping Cousins?  It would make sense for two seasons: 1. He could be trade bait. If the Falcons cut Cousins, they don't get anything in return if he signs somewhere else. However, if a QB gets injured this year or if a team finds itself in desperate need of a QB, the Falcons would be in a spot where they could trade Cousins for decent draft compensation. The only problem with this possible plan is that Cousins has a no-trade clause, so he can veto any deal. That being said, if he wants to be a starter somewhere and his options are "get traded or be the Falcons backup" then he might accept a trade.  2. Cousins' upcoming $10 million roster bonus. Cousins has a $10 million roster bonus that becomes guaranteed on the fifth day of the league year (March 17), but that money isn't due to him until March 2026. The Falcons could keep him for one more season and then let Cousins test free agency in 2026. If Cousins did that and signed a deal worth more than $10 million with another team, the Falcons would owe him nothing due to offsets.  Basically, the Falcons could theoretically keep him and it wouldn't be complicated, so it will be interesting to see what happens in this situation. As we mentioned yesterday, the Browns are ready to pounce on Cousins if he becomes available.

      I really hope it works out whoever we draft but IMO Stewart's bust factor is off the charts. Checks every measurement box twice and yet completely lacks production. It's such a a massive red flag.
