What to Know
The 49ers reportedly are acquiring 14-year NFL veteran and six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Keenan Allen from the Indianapolis Colts for a 2027 sixth-round draft pick.
San Francisco acquired DeForest Buckner from the Indianapolis Colts during its Week 8 bye, and the 49ers’ former first-round draft pick played against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.
After trading their 2027 fourth-round draft pick to the Colts for Buckner and their 2027 sixth-round draft pick to Indianapolis for Allen, the 49ers have five available picks in next year’s draft: Their first-, second-, third- and fifth-round picks, and a seventh-round pick via the Kansas City Chiefs.
The 49ers have all available picks remaining for the 2028 and 2029 drafts.
Aside from Allen, here are the other players moved in trades on Tuesday: Safety Amani Hooker (Tennessee to Buffalo), quarterback Kirk Cousins (Las Vegas to Minnesota), linebacker Daiyan Henley (Los Angeles Chargers to Denver), wide receiver Josh Downs (Indianapolis to Kansas City), center Ryan Neural (Atlanta to Baltimore) and guard Andrew Vorhees (Baltimore to Atlanta).
In addition to Buckner, the following players were traded over the last month: WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (Arizona to Houston), G Quenton Nelson (Indianapolis to Seattle), DT Jeffery Simmons (Tennessee to Chicago), QB Jacoby Brissett (Arizona to Baltimore) and S Jessie Bates III (Atlanta to Jacksonville).
In addition to Bates, the Jaguars completed two other trades Monday, acquiring defensive tackle Davon Godchaux from the New Orleans Saints and later adding defensive tackle Jordan Davis from the Philadelphia Eagles for a 2027 first-round draft pick and a 2029 second-round draft pick.
