"No surprise here, but word in league circles is the Jets, and most specifically Joe Douglas, are all in on using that pick to acquire Deebo Samuel," wrote Pauline on Saturday.
Of course, the chatter out of Santa Clara points toward the 49ers not wanting to trade their do-it-all receiver who amassed 1,770 all-purpose yards and 14 total touchdowns last season, not including his passing touchdown. However, contract extension talks have reportedly stalled.
If San Francisco does trade Samuel, it will likely be before or during the first-round of the draft, which kicks off on Thursday night. The 49ers don't currently own a first-round pick and are slated to make their first selection at No. 61 overall.
