Gary Davenport of Bleacher Report listed players who could help the 49ers as they’re in bad cap shape, currently -$57.9 million. Of the possible players they could target, Davenport writes that Cody Barton of the Commanders could help them

ability is seriously questioned for the start of the 2024 season.

“After earning $90.5 million in 2023, Barton should be available for a fair price. He accumulated 120 tackles in each of the previous two years.”

Barton is an unrestricted free agent this  after being selected in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. In 2023, h

made his Commanders debut in 13 games and concluded with 67 solo tackles, 121 total tackles, and 1 interception.
