49ers Weigh Trades and Extensions for Key Players

The San Francisco 49ers face significant decisions regarding key players, including Brock Purdy and George Kittle, amid ongoing contract negotiations and potential trades. Purdy, seeking a sizable contract extension, has drawn trade interest from teams like the New Orleans Saints, especially due to Derek Carr's injury, while some analysts suggest a trade to the Steelers for T.J. Watt. Meanwhile, rumors suggest the 49ers might trade Kittle due to his contract demands, possibly to draft tight end Tyler Warren as his successor. The 49ers' management faces challenges in balancing their salary cap while considering these potential trades and extensions. With the NFL Draft approaching, the team must decide on their future strategy, including the possibility of acquiring new talent or retaining their current stars. These decisions will significantly impact the 49ers' roster and performance in the upcoming seasons.
