49ers trade linebacker Eli Harold to Lions

The 49ers keep saying goodbye to Trent Baalke's draft picks. On Thursday, the 49ers traded outside linebacker Eli Harold to the Lions. In the deal, the 49ers will receive a conditional 2020 seventh-round pick, MLive.com reported. Harold, a 2015 third-round pick, has five sacks in a career that includes 25 starts. Last year, Harold had 34 tackles and two sacks in 11 starts. General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan inherited 31 of ex-GM Baalke's draft picks in February 2017 and they have shed 23 from the roster. Only 12 players remain who were part of a 2-14 season in 2016.
