3rd round pick for Alshon with the conditions that we work out a long term deal with his agent before the trade goes through. Yeah our main problem is on defense but it's more so about continuity, chemistry, and lack of a pass rush. No SSS next year and Perriman is still an unknown it actually makes sense on our end, just depends how much Chicago wants and if Alshon would sign an immediate extension, probably won't happen for one of those reasons
Sure, but they can easily franchise tag him, so its not like there's actual risk of him leaving if they wish to retain him.
they could tag him and then trade him next season if he still does not want to resign. on top of that we dont have the cap space to give him top WR money anyways.
It certainly isn't likely but this is also an unprecedented situation for this franchise at 0-3, especially in the Harbaugh era. Then you consider as of right now Aiken is our #2 WR going into next year. Acquiring Alshon wouldn't just be about this year but also the future of the offense. We have been looking for that prototype WR for a decade now
