The 49ers were said to be one of the front runners for Khalil Mack. John Lynch even said he made a better offer than the Bears did for the linebacker but the Raiders ultimately went with Chicago.

Which leaves you to assume that they’d be willing to give up something for Antonio Brown. Maybe not three first-rounders, but they could find a way to use the No. 2 pick to their advantage and hand Pittsburgh a top pick and other assets.

Getting Jimmy Garropolo a new weapon would benefit his development, and the franchise’s biggest investment. This team would be bringing in one of the league’s best players to help a young quarterback, and add to an offense with plenty of potential but who was banged up this season.

The 49ers are an interesting team to keep an eye on. Antonio Brown’s reply to George Kittle’s tweet isn’t as important as it looked, but the more than appear the more attention we should give them.
