2. DE Dee Ford

If the Raiders are set on upgrading their pass rush, but the price tag is too for Ngakoue, another edge rusher that would make sense via trade would be Dee Ford. Earlier this offseason, former NFL general manager Michael Lombardi floated the idea that Ford could be moved from the 49ers to free up cap space.

Ford is a veteran pass rusher with a ton of speed off the edge. While he has struggled to stay healthy at points in his career, his ability to get to the quarterback is his greatest strength.

Given that the Raiders would be doing the 49ers a favor with the cap, the price for acquiring Ford would be significantly lower in comparison to Ngakoue. If the 49ers were willing to move Ford for a Day 3 selection, the Raiders should be interested.
