Are the 49ers Creating a Weird Situation With Deebo Samuel?
© Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Are the 49ers Creating a Weird Situation With Deebo Samuel? Deebo Samuel was dangled out there as trade bait by the 49ers and they also drafted his potential replacement for 2025. Have the 49ers created a weird situation with Samuel? Author: Jose Sanchez III May 03, 2024 In this story: Deebo Samuel 49ers Ricky Pearsall Trade All-Pro receiver Brandon Aiyuk was constantly involved in trade scenarios leading up to the NFL draft. The San Francisco 49ers have to either extend him lucratively, which is well deserved, or they could've traded him before or during the draft. Well, it turns out Aiyuk wasn't the right receiver who was likely to be traded. Deebo Samuel

Huh? This pick seems a bit out of nowhere, especially considering no one really had Pearsall going at this point in the draft. Perhaps this is the 49ers bracing for a move at wide receiver, but Pearsall could have been had later than this.

Green is a skilled player for the 49ers to add to their defensive backfield. He made a lot of plays on the ball last year for the Seminoles and held first-round pick Malik Nabers in check during their matchups to open the season.

More depth for a 49ers offensive line that’s continuing to find their best starting five after an inconsistent showing in 2023.
