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.

Safe to say the 49ers likely won’t be making a major swing like they did in 2022. However, Lynch & Co. have shown a willingness to deal for the right price.

“It’s just gotta be a fit. You’re always calling and receiving calls,” the GM said on KNBR this week. “This list is a little different, we’re not where we want to be we’re 4-4 but we’ve got a lot in front of us. One thing this team has shown the ability to do under [49ers coach Kyle Shanahan] is get better throughout the season and play our best ball when it matters most.”

The 49ers best may be yet to come, especially if McCaffrey does return to the lineup after the bye.

But SF’s problems stem further than just getting guys healthy. Several units are depleted, due to injury or other factors. And with the most cap space in the NFL ($54 million), the 49ers can afford to spend a draft pick or two at the trade deadline.

So without waste anymore of the word count, here are a few positions SF should target before the Nov. 5th deadline.
