Niners Nation

On Wednesday morning, it was reported that All-Pro wide receiver Deebo Samuel had officially requested a trade from the San Francisco 49ers. While that doesn’t necessarily mean Samuel will be dealt with, the possibility of it happening certainly exists. Before I get into the mock, I want to clarify that I am not advocating for trading Samuel. Instead, I think the utmost priority for the 49ers at this point in time should be to find a way to mend the relationship with Samuel and figure out a long-term extension that would keep the budding superstar wideout in a 49ers uniform for the foreseeable future. However, this situation has certainly taken an abrupt turn in recent days. In an offseason that’s seen players like Davante Adams and Tyreek Hill traded, nothing can be ruled out in regards to potentially moving Samuel.
