Samuel's decline is so significant and his contract is so bad that the 49ers actually might have to send a team draft picks to get them to take Samuel.

Deebo Samuel has given the 49ers another trade request, and the team seems expected to do so, according to multiple reports on Super Bowl Sunday.

Samuel's request is a way of getting ahead of a divorce that has felt inevitable since last offseason when the 49ers drafted receiver Ricky Pearsall No. 31 overall and signed wideouts Jauan Jennings and Brandon Aiyuk to contract extensions.
