San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch has already established he’s willing to make trades.
Big ones, too, particularly the ones in 2019 which acquired EDGE Dee Ford and wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders from the Kansas City Chiefs and the Denver Broncos, respectively.
Yet those moves cut into the available crop of 2020 NFL Draft picks Lynch had at his disposal. Ford cost a second-round pick, while Sanders cost the Niners’ third- and fourth-round picks this year, although they picked up Denver’s fifth rounder in return, too.
Additionally, San Francisco has to be mindful of its salary cap situation for the first time in years.
