Could the San Francisco 49ers pull off a trade in the near future?
San Francisco is just about two weeks away from kicking off regular season action in the new season but it will need to alter the roster ahead of it. The 49ers will need to make some tough decisions soon and NFL Trade Rumors' Logan Ulrich mentioned receivers Danny Gray and Ronnie Bell as players possibly on the trade block.
"49ers WR Danny Gray, (Miami Dolphins) WR Erik Ezukanma, (Baltimore Ravens) WR Malik Cunningham, 49ers WR Ronnie Bell, (New York Giants) WR Isaiah Hodgins, (and) (Tennessee Titans) WR Kyle Phillips," Ulrich said. "Bell has so far exceeded expectations as a seventh-round pick, making the team last year as a rookie, playing all 17 games and scoring three touchdowns. But the 49ers are just too deep at receiver, especially if they end up holding onto Aiyuk. Bell has special teams experience and just does a lot of things at a solid level.
"Hodgins had a nice late-season run in 2022 but faded back into obscurity last year and looks like a roster longshot. A team looking for a possession wideout could be interested, even if just on waivers."
Most of the trade chatter about the 49ers this summer rightfully so has been about receiver Brandon Aiyuk. There's still a chance that he could be moved, but he isn't the only player that the 49ers will have to make a tough decision about.
Keep a close eye on the 49ers over the next two weeks as the team starts to trim down the roster.
