In a series of adjustments for the Philadelphia Eagles, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has been hired, and the next step for the team is to figure out their personnel. Recent reports suggest that two defensive linemen, Josh Sweat and Haason Reddick, are in trade scenarios.

According to several sources, Philadelphia has been fielding calls about the possibility of trading Josh Sweat. Meanwhile, Haason Reddick has been granted permission to seek a trade of his own.

The San Francisco 49ers have emerged as a potential suitor for these players. However, the high cost associated with both Sweat and Reddick raises questions about the feasibility of such a move. The 49ers have shown interest in bringing back Chase Young on a prove-it deal, but concerns about his performance in 2023 have led them to explore other options.

The main issue with pursuing Sweat or Reddick is the financial aspect. Both players have just one year remaining on their contracts and command significant salaries. Haason Reddick, in particular, is due an estimated $22 million for the 2024 season, with additional void years and a $14 million payout in 2025. This makes any potential trade challenging for both the Eagles and any interested team.

Moreover, surrendering a high draft pick for a player with only one year left on their deal poses risks for the 49ers. It would be more prudent for the team to focus on securing multiple-year deals in free agency rather than sacrificing valuable draft assets.

Despite the financial obstacles, the 49ers could potentially work their way around Sweat's $9 million cap number for the upcoming season. However, this would only make the cost of acquiring him even steeper. It is likely that Sweat will be traded to a team willing to not only surrender a high draft pick but also offer an extension, similar to the DeForest Buckner situation in 2020.

With the uncertainties surrounding these potential trades, the big question remains: Is it worth giving up a high draft pick and taking on the financial burden for a one-year rental of either player? The 49ers will need to carefully consider their options and weigh the potential benefits against the costs.

As the Philadelphia Eagles continue to make adjustments and the San Francisco 49ers explore their defensive line options, it remains to be seen if a deal for Josh Sweat or Haason Reddick will materialize. The offseason promises to bring further developments as teams navigate the intricacies of player acquisitions and financial constraints.
