Where will Deebo Samuel end up?
San Francisco wants to move Deebo, but it will take a team willing to eat his contract to do so.
With Deebo Samuel available for trade, it paves the way for many mock trades to be made.
The latest one shows that the 49ers would be sending the star wideout and premium draft capital to a heated rival to get him out of town.
The mock trade has Deebo going to the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for DE Maxx Crosby.

As he tries to make his way out, it has been revealed that Samuel was 20 pounds overweight at times this past season, according to The SF Standard’s Tim Kawakami.
In 15 games, the 29-year-old caught a career-low 51 receptions for 670 yards and three touchdowns.
Maxx Crosby’s future with the Las Vegas Raiders is reportedly in question entering the offseason.
The 27-year-old Crosby is under contract through the 2026 season, but NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport reported that his future is “up in the air.”
Crosby was limited to 12 games in 2024 and finished with 45 tackles, 7.5 sacks, and 17 tackles for loss.
Deebo Samuel Seems to Want To Play For The Denver Broncos

It’s the offseason, and you know the San Francisco 49ers will need to have some drama, which has already happened with the team granting the request of Deebo Samuel to find a trade partner.
The San Francisco 49ers wide receiver is seeking a trade to a new team, and it appears he knows where he wants to end up.
Samuel went on his podcast and said the Broncos are a player away from being contenders; then he posted a picture of himself wearing a Broncos jersey on Instagram.
It’s unclear whether the Broncos have any actual interest in Samuel.
Former Broncos cornerback Chris Harris Jr. doesn’t seem to be a fan, as he posted his thoughts about Samuel on X.
“Deebo to Denver makes zero sense when we already have (Marvin) Mims (Jr.),” Harris Jr. wrote.
