No. 3: Wide Receiver Odell Beckham Jr.

Rumors continue to swirl around the availability of New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. This is the type of player that could completely transform Kyle Shanahan’s 2019 offense.

Still only 26 years old, Beckham is ascending into his prime. The ideal time to acquire him. The 49ers have the assets and cap space to make a deal happen. Much of it will depend on the Giants’ willingness to move the three-time All-Pro.

Wide receiver is a glaring need for the Niners, and adding a player like Beckham would not only energize the fanbase, but send a jolt of fear through the entire NFC West.
