The Facts: Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports that a possible trade that will send Samuel to the Jets isn’t dead yet.

Diehards Line: Cimini also suggests that the final decision may hinge on the players who are taken before the Jets are on the clock. And that may indeed be a factor. According to Profootballtalk.com, at this point, the 49ers need to think of the trade as a swap for a player not a draft pick. Once the first nine selections are made, the 49ers will know who they can get. It really may be that simple. Regardless, PFT's Mike Florio contends complete discretion remains a key ingredient. While the deal would be done well in advance of the pick going on the clock, the 49ers should do everything they can to keep it completely quiet until then.
