Mike Kadlick of Sports Illustrated has named the 49ers as one of the best potential trade destinations for Washington Commanders star wide receiver Terry McLaurin. He noted that making a move for McLaurin would help replace the loss of Deebo Samuel, who was traded by San Francisco to the Commanders earlier this offseason.

When the 49ers traded Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders for a fifth-round pick this offseason, most analysts considered this trade a win for the 49ers.

Deebo Samuel Sr., who had been one of Brock Purdy's most reliable targets in the NFL, was traded to the Washington Commanders this offseason.
