I also love how people just so value those draft picks. "We're gonna get such a stud at 13". Because every top 13 pick is a stud. You're lucky if 3 of the top 20 players drafted end up being studs and we just traded one of the best draft picks in recent years away.

I will miss DeFo. He suffered through some s**tty years and now that the team has turned it around he gets sent packing. At least he has $$$ to spend.

The quality of our D-Line has dropped dramatically.
The durability of the line has plummeted. Does anyone genuinely expect to see Ford and AA out there for 17 (yes, 17) games next season?

So, now that it's all out, the 49ers had two apparent choices:
— Oscar Aparicio (@BetterRivals) March 16, 2020
DeFo + some undefined comp/trade compensation
OR
Armstead + the 13th overall pick + ~12m in cap relief from Buckner.
I mean, yeah. That's a pretty solid outcome for the 49ers.
I can still hate it even if it kinda makes some sense
I agree. This is where separating being a fan and a business decision is difficult. Plus, if that pick turns into either more picks or an impact player it's worth it.
very well said!

D line going to be hurting big time. Hopefully AA isn't a one year wonder. Buck was out beat DL after Bosa.
Yikes.
Yikes.

Time for Ronald Blair to shine. Would imagine he's next up for an extension.

Agreed. Love Buckner but 21 mil is just too much. Good for him taking care of his chickens though.Originally posted by Antix:This is a move that is hard on the heart but right in the brain.

There's a sane, that if you have to do it eventually - then you do it immediately.
