This Feels More Realistic Than Ever... | Daily San Francisco 49ers News & Rumors

Now, what I did was I looked around the league because we're three weeks into the NFL season, and there are five teams across the league that are currently winless.

0-3.

So I thought, why not take a look at each of those teams and see if I could find one player that it would make sense to trade for.

Now, for a lot of these teams, I tried to avoid the obvious.

Like our first one here, the Tennessee Titans.

I'm not saying Jeffrey Simmons.

Because obviously it would always be great for the 49ers to trade for the best player on a winless team.

Of course it would make sense for the 49ers to go trade for Will Anderson Jr. from the Houston Texans.

But they would never do that.

So I tried to keep it realistic.

I chose one player.

who I think could realistically be traded from each of the five 0-3 football teams.

And then I ranked them based on how much I would want this trade to happen for San Francisco.

So we've got one player from the Titans, one from the Texans, one from the Dolphins, one from the Buccaneers, and one from the Chargers.

Now let's start with the Titans player.

At number five is Calvin Ridley, wide receiver from the Titans.

Now he is last on my list here because I really don't want the 49ers to make this trade.

Ridley would only cost $5.5 million this year if a team acquired him, but he would cost roughly $20 million next year for a player who has really fallen off the map.

Any sort of Calvin Ridley trade would be a salary loss.

dump for the Tennessee Titans he has not scored a touchdown since 2024 probably one of the worst contracts in the NFL and yet he is still only 31 right and he's in one of the worst offensive situations in the NFL so In a better offense, maybe he could come back to his 1,000-yard type of ways.

He'd be a very cheap trade.

The Titans would not have to give up very much at all.

The Titans would not require any team to give up very much in order to get rid of him.

I think the Titans are itching to get rid of Calvin Ridley.

especially now that they've brought in their new wide receiver, Wondell Robinson.
