San Francisco 49ers insider Matt Maiocco has proposed a trade scenario where the team moves back from the No. 27 overall pick to the Arizona Cardinals to acquire extra draft capital.

Maiocco suggests the 49ers trade the No. 27 pick to the Cardinals for the No. 34 pick in the second round, the No. 104 pick in the fourth round, and the No. 143 pick in the fifth round. The proposal implies the Cardinals might target Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson with the move up. While risky for a division rival, the 49ers, who lack picks after the fourth round, aim to accumulate opportunities to find star talent.
