While the 49ers made many a high-profile move this offseason, grabbing Trent Sherfield could prove to be the steal of the year.
He hasn’t played a single regular-season snap for the San Francisco 49ers just yet. But fourth-year wide receiver Trent Sherfield might wind up being general manager John Lynch’s best move of the 2021 offseason.
With all due respect to the re-signing of perennial Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams and the trade-up to land rookie quarterback Trey Lance, Sherfield’s one-year free-agent deal could easily wind up being one of those moves where the end results vastly eclipse the expectations.
