I will be very surprised if Beane makes more than a peripheral move today. IMO, with so many teams being buyers, the price will be too high for him.

Bears giving up a 2nd makes me think they know they are getting at least a 2nd back for Johnson.

Is he trying to win it all this season or not? CB, DT, and LB are definitely areas in obvious need of upgrades after sting of injury.

CB and DT are long term needs as well, so an in-season trade makes sense.

Do you think GM's are more unwilling to admit mistakes with an in-season trade? The Elam situation didn't work out. So now to solidify the CB position, Beane might have to spend a 2nd/3rd round pick to get a player that actually panned out. So in retrospect, he uses a 1st and 2nd round pick to get a guy for the position.

I don't think GMs are hesitant to walk away from picks who are not franchise type picks. If Allen was failing to pan out, maybe Beane has more slack for him, as an example.
For Elam? I'd think Beane would move on from him in a heartbeat if it meant improving the team.

At some point he's going to have to push the chips in the middle, no?
Last year he got Marlowe & Hines with these peripheral moves you talked about. Nothing the year before. The team has holes, like anybody, but to do nothing when your window is now is crazy.
Yeah, that's what I think as well.
If you're trading for Johnson right now, you do a couple things. You make the secondary stronger now and the likeliness of Tre White coming back until mid next year would be a miracle, so you have an option next year as well.

The 49ers always try to aggressively improve their team.
Sometimes it fails (3 1sts for a QB bust), sometimes it hits (McCaffrey), but they always try.
I love that.

Well that’s one hole filled. My guess is this was the backup plan on Johnson. Would love if they still find a DT

He's 6'2 and had 9 picks over the past two seasons. He's their No. 2 corner and certainly a serviceable starter for us once he's in the lineup.

Apparently Douglas is one of the highest graded corners by PFF, to the extent you give that any meaning.

Douglas is signed through 2024, so that’s a nice addition
