49ers mailbag: What influence can Jerry Rice have on Antonio Brown deal?

SANTA CLARA — The 49ers are not playing Sunday for a Super Bowl berth for the fifth straight season, so let’s distract everyone by opening our 15-question mailbag via our Twitter and Instagram friends:

1. Do you really think the 49ers should trade a high 2nd rounder (and possibly more) for AB? He’s 30 years old which is often the start of the decline in WRs. (@frankie5s)

Antonio Brown won’t be freed from the Steelers for much less. The 49ers’ No. 2 overall pick holds too much equity to swap for him. The 49ers weren’t reckless in failed trade talks for Khalil Mack and Josh Gordon.
