As the first round of the draft approached, the 49ers faced a crucial decision: whether to trade away receiver Brandon Aiyuk or use their 31st overall pick to add a new player to their roster. In the end, they chose to keep Aiyuk and used their Super Bowl-earned pick to select Florida receiver Ricky Pearsall. This move suggests that the team may be looking to trade either Aiyuk or Deebo Samuel in order to make room for younger and more cost-effective players at key positions.
The impending question now is whether one of those two players will be traded on Friday, possibly in exchange for a second-round pick. The situation is still developing, so it’s advised to stay tuned for updates on this evolving story.
