The San Francisco 49ers are expected to try to acquire more draft equity since they lack a selection between rounds one and five. That could mean trading one of their two first-round draft picks, which many expect them to try to do. But are they willing to trade both?
Yes, apparently.
Adam Schefter of ESPN is reporting that the Niners are fielding calls for both of their first-round draft picks — No. 13 and No. 31 overall — and are willing to trade either or both.
49ers fielding calls on both their first-round picks, No. 13 and No. 31 overall, and are open to dealing either or both picks, per league sources. After 31, 49ers not scheduled to pick again until No. 156 in fifth round. No second-, third- and fourth-round picks. Want more picks.
The 2020 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday, and the 49ers currently own seven selections. The No. 13 overall pick was acquired via the trade that sent Pro Bowl defensive tackle Deforest Buckner to the Indianapolis Colts.
Most mock drafts have San Francisco using its top selection to acquire a wide receiver. However, should the top three prospects — Jerry Jeudy, CeeDee Lamb, and Henry Ruggs — all be off the board by the No. 13 overall pick, the team could be heavily influenced to move down.
The 49ers traded their second-, third-, and fourth-round picks for pass rusher Dee Ford last offseason and wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders at the end of October. Sanders signed with the New Orleans Saints in March.
