Colts-49ers Trade Grades: DeForest Buckner Reunion Should Pay Off in San Francisco
The Colts are dealing the veteran DT back to the 49ers, where he was a first-round selection in 2026. The NFL trade deadline is two weeks away, with the Colts agreeing to trade defensive tackle DeForest Buckner to the 49ers for a 2027 fourth-round pick. This move comes after the Colts fired GM Chris Ballard and were expected to become sellers at the deadline. Buckner, who began his career in San Francisco, is an immediate upgrade to the team's pass rush and should help them get more pressure from the interior of the defense. The 49ers also brought back Buckner at a good price due to his final year of his contract, which allows him to help them in a playoff run. However, the Colts were not able to secure more draft capital for Buckner.
