The 49ers will free up some money to spend if/when they trade Jimmy Garoppolo. When San Francisco decides to dip into the free-agent market, here are 3 offensive and 3 defensive players they should target. FrontOffice33 | FTTB
The San Francisco 49ers are entering an exciting and unpredictable period. Much of their offseason will surely center around their attempts to trade starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in exchange for immediate and future draft capital. Garoppolo served as San Francisco’s signal-caller in 2021 while nearly leading the 49ers to their second Super Bowl appearance in three seasons.
An extension for Mike McGlinchey and a restructure for Arik Armstead could free up several additional dollars. The NFC West is loaded with talent as the Rams get ready to defend their Lombardi trophy, and general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan must be aggressive in their pursuit to surpass the Rams as kings of the NFC West mountaintop.
Plucking offensive guard Austin Corbett from their division rival Rams makes so much sense on the surface. Corbett has surprisingly rehabilitated his professional career in Sean McVay's wide zone scheme, which is an extension of what Shanahan runs in San Francisco. Staying in that scheme is critical for Corbett's future success based on his previous below-average experience with the Cleveland Browns.
McCoy is entering his 13th season and has proven himself as a worthy commodity in recent stints with the Washington Commanders and Arizona Cardinals. Shanahan had a front-row seat to McCoy's aptness in an early November contest that saw McCoy complete an astounding 22-of-26 passing attempts for 249 yards and a touchdown in a victory over the 49ers while replacing the injured Kyler Murray.
D'Onta Foreman shocked the football world by adequately replacing the injured Derrick Henry in Tennessee last season. Foreman accounted for more than 600 rushing yards in 10 appearances, including a short but impressive showing in the playoffs. A former third-round selection out of Texas, Foreman finally found his calling in Tennessee's outside-zone system. Shanahan runs a similar scheme in San Francisco that would allow Foreman to compete for carries while hitting the ground running.
The 33-year-old Justin Houston is best used situationally at this point, but can still produce a handful of sacks when placed in the correct environment. Houston should be available on a modest and cost-effective short-team deal due to his advancing age, and the 49ers could utilize the services of a proven, affordable veteran such as Houston.Cornerback is arguably San Francisco's biggest need heading into this offseason.
