“I love our roster,” Lynch said. “I love the way it’s comprised. As I said, we were right there. And we got to find a way to get just a little bit better. And I’m doing everything in my power to keep our roster together and that’s my goal.”
The Top 3 Trade Destinations For 49ers’ Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk Amid Trade Rumors.
Following another defeat in the Super Bowl, once again at the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs, the San Francisco 49ers entered the offseason wondering what went wrong. San Francisco has been so close to getting itself back to the mountaintop, only to see everything crumble right before its eyes.
The 49ers changed quarterbacks and brought in more offensive weapons to counter the Chiefs, only for the same result to occur as did during their prior Super Bowl encounter. The 49ers’ front office has taken a long look at where else the team could tweak its roster, bringing about rumors of San Francisco moving off one or both of its two-star wide receivers. Both Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk are looking for massive contract extensions, something that the 49ers will need to address at some point.
While trade rumors swirled, 49ers general manager John Lynch fueled the fire by drafting wide receiver Ricky Pearsall out of the University of Florida in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
Lynch appeared on ESPN’s “The Pat McAfee Show” and addressed the rumors that the 49ers may be looking to move off one of, or even both, receivers this offseason.
“I love our roster,” Lynch said. “I love the way it’s comprised. As I said, we were right there. And we got to find a way to get just a little bit better. And I’m doing everything in my power to keep our roster together and that’s my goal.”
