The 49ers are quickly running out of trade partners for Jimmy Garoppolo. The Colts, once believed to be a prime candidate for a swap, are set to trade for Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan. That takes Indianapolis off the table and leaves very few teams in the market for a starter.
While the Falcons now have an opening under center, it stands to reason that head coach Arthur Smith may be looking for a young quarterback he can mold and develop in his second season with the head job in Atlanta. They’re on the table though, which is at least some good news for San Francisco.
Other teams that might look to acquire Garoppolo are the Panthers, Saints and Seahawks.
