When was the last good 49ers Player Trade? (Non-draft day)

Shop Find 49ers gear online
1987) Steve Young (from TB): 2nd/4th Rd picks '87 draft

1992) Charles Haley (to DAL): 2nd Rd '93, 3rd Rd '94

1993) Joe Montana, David Whitmore, 3rd Rd '94 (to KC): 1st Rd '93

2013) Alex Smith (to KC): 2nd Rd '13, 2nd '14

2013) Anquan Boldin (from BAL): 6th Rd '13

2015) Vernon Davis (to DEN): 6th '16, 6th '17

These are just off the top of my head...feel free to add any more (thought the Woodson-Langham swap in '98 was a trade, but turned out to be corresponding FA signings by BAL and SF)

Young trade seems to be the last incoming blockbuster (though it might not have been covered as such in '87, in hindsight it was)

I've only included the initial players/picks transacted and not what the Niners subsequently converted the picks into

At the time I thought trading down for Rashaun Woods was great....in hindsight

Boldin for a 6th rounder.
...and yes Haley trade = cost 3 Lombardis

Yup, great trade. Was a life saver in 2013 after Crab went down too.
Trade up to get Jerry Rice

/Life
We got Tim Harris for a 2. Was supposed to be a bookend to Charles Haley. He was a pretty good pass rusher.
Fred Dean trade turned out to be our missing piece like Haley was for Dallas.

Didn't we trade up for JJ Stokes?

You nailed it!

Great question.

Draft Day Trade - Hands down - Jerry Rice

Player Trade - tough call - the Fred Dean trade was excellent!

Was Garry Plumber acquisition a trade or a FA deal??
Kerley for Thomas
Kerley last year for Brandon Thomas ended up being a steal.

Boldin for a 6th.

Lloyd for a 3rd and 4th (would go on to pick bad players Brandon Williams and Jay Moore)

Player trades as they're not as frequent as draft day trades
