San Francisco 49ers

The New Orleans Saints took one of the 49ers top threats so it’d only make sense for them to repay the favor, right? While that concept is wrong, the 49ers could be looking for a new running back entering the season.

With an elite defense, the 49ers could easily be the best team in the NFC with a few more weapons offensively. NBC Sports ranked Raheem Mostert the 30th-best starting running back in the NFL.

He’s unproven and is far from the back that Alvin Kamara has shown he can be. While the Saints may be open to offers, they may not be open to those from one of the only three teams to beat them in 2019.

Just barely, the 49ers will be in the top half of the league in cap space next season.

It’d be tough for them to foot the bill, but it would be possible if the Niners want that next-level threat. Again, much of the interest in Kamara may come from A) the cost and B) if the Saints aren’t bluffing and are actually willing to part ways with him.

He’d be a great fit in San Fran with Jimmy G, but it may not be a perfect fit in terms of cost, a problem many other teams, including the Saints, would find themselves having
