This draft class does include Dee Ford and at least half a season of Emmanuel Sanders a year early. They will be significant contributors. 

I agree. I'd do that Dee Ford deal again in a heart beat. I just really hope that Sanders can make an impact this year that can help the Niners play deep into January or even into February.

Yeah, idk if this is the piece to push us over the top. But then again our WR corps is weak af.

Yeah I agree but it's only going to help. Pettis has looked better past few weeks but has been a huge disappointment this year, Samuel is rookie. Goodwin is a specialist and everyone else is not good or injuried. We really needed someone to help kittle and Jimmy G.

So how many 2020 picks do we have now? I guess our 1st, Denver's 5th, our 5th, 6th, & 7th. 

5 picks, not much cap space...we needed those picks to replace aging players/players leaving in FA. 

Does Sanders add that much to our outside passing game that its worth a 3rd and swap of our 4th/their 5th? 

I'm guessing we release Jordan Matthews in the corresponding move?

Honestly don't think the 2020 offseason is the most important for us in terms of replacing players that leave in FA or aging players. Not that many guys that will leave us are more than the Levine Toilolo level and the three that are more are Armstead, Ward and Blair. Two of those three probably aren't going to set the world on fire in terms of the contract they will get and Armstead if we can't keep him will be replaced in house with Thomas and guys like Taylor, Street and Givens. We have turned the roster over almost completely over the last three years which makes going for a guy like Sanders possible. Then if we can't resign him he will probably get an offer good enough to earn a Compensation pick along with Armstead if he leaves.
