Before the NFL Draft there are always a lot of rumors about teams potentially trading up to take players, some materialize and some never do so take it with a grain of salt but there is a new one involving the San Francisco 49ers and Texas A&M Aggies wide receiver Mike Evans.
According to Rotoworld Senior Editor Evan Silva, Chris Mortensen said on ESPN that the 49ers are ready to move up in the draft. Mortensen suggested their Bay Area neighbors Oakland Raiders as a potential trade partner.
Chris Mortensen said he's heard "more than twice" #49ers could be "ready to do something big" & #Raiders are "open for business" at No. 5.
