What was a productive three-year tenure for Charvarius Ward with the San Francisco 49ers seems likely to be ending early in 2025. Ward signed a three-year, $40 million deal with San Francisco after spending his first four seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The San Francisco 49ers already have a loaded, expensive defense. Might they toss one more superstar into the mix? In fairness, with the playoffs still rolling on, it's too early in the offseason to lawfully broker blockbuster trades.

If there is one acquisition the 49ers should make this offseason, it is trading for Maxx Crosby. He is a game-changing player, would pair well with Nick Bosa, and could push San Francisco over the top.
