The San Francisco 49ers enter its’ 2024 Bye Week in a peculiar position. Are they sellers or buyers at the trade deadline?

Recent history would say the latter for the perennial playoff contender, especially after coming up just short of the Lombardi Trophy last February. But at 4-4, the vibes around the Red & Gold seem a bit off at the halfway point of 2024 regular season.

Yet, it would behoove the 49ers to make a trade or two if they want to salvage its’ season.

General manager John Lynch and the front office have been active in years past. Last season the 49ers traded for defensive end Chase Young. The year before that: All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey.
