So far, the NFL trade deadline has been extremely quiet. So quiet in fact that no player has had to change his address, though, with the deadline less than a half hour away ESPN’s Adam Schefter says one team to keep an eye on are the San Francisco 49ers.

According to the NFL insider, San Francisco has been working the phones attempting to gain some help on the ‘back part’ of their roster:

"In last hour before trade deadline, Niners are team to watch. They’ve been working phones on back part of their roster."

San Francisco has been among one of the most active teams on the phones in recent weeks (at least according to reports), however, they haven’t been overly eager to deal any players or draft picks of high value leading to talk that any move they make will essentially be for a backup.
