The San Francisco 49ers‘ trade of defensive lineman DeForest Buckner to the Indianapolis Colts has been discussed a great deal since it happened, but there seems little doubt both teams benefited in different ways.
No matter how you look at it, though, one thing is definitely true: it’s time to move past the argument of whether it was a good or bad trade and instead dive into what the Niners will do now that it’s done.
Part of that revolves around what general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan will do with the 13th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, which the Colts gave in exchange for Buckner.
