We have made it through another week of the NFL offseason and it is time to take a look at the rest of the NFC West to see what is going on with the Arizona Cardinals’ division rivals. What is new with the San Francisco 49ers?
Below are a few stories from the last week that Cardinals fans should know about the Niners.
Potential trade targets
Free agency is mostly done. The NFL draft is over. Some players the 49ers could trade for to improve their roster include CB Jamel Dean, CB DaRon Bland and OL Liam Eichenberg.
Niners almost ran out of time on pick in 2024
Head coach Kyle Shanahan revealed how they almost had the clock run out on them in the fourth round of the 2024 draft.
Niners tried trading up in 2025 draft
The Niners got EDGE Mykel Williams with the 11th pick in the draft. They considered trading up to the No. 8 pick to land him, and also were prepared to trade up to get DT Mason Graham, who landed with the Cleveland Browns with the fifth overall pick, had he fallen more.
Suspension could be coming
The Niners added former Rams receiver Demarcus Robinson in free agency. He could be looking at a three-game suspension to start the season.
Former top pick waived
Defensive end Drake Jackson was the 49ers’ top pick in 2022, taken in the second round. After years of dealing with injuries, he was recently waived with a failed physical designation.
