Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer believes the 49ers could get "a Day 2 pick in 2026 and maybe a conditional Day 3 pick in 2027" for Mac Jones this offseason.The rub is that Jones is under contract for just $4.66 million in 2026, so a team trading for him at that number can afford to do quite a bit of maneuvering with the cap.
