49ers Rumors: Khalil Mack, Keenan Allen & Potential Deadline Moves Discussed

Hour 4: Murph and Markus are keeping the phones open, waiting for the 49ers to make a move before the trade deadline. The team's pass rush is a major concern, with only 15 sacks on the season, the fifth worst in the NFL. The hosts discuss the possibility of adding more pass rushers, including Khalil Mack, who is currently not on the trade block. They also touch on the 49ers' defensive line, with Nick Bosa and DeForest Buckner making positive plays, but the team still needing more pressure on the quarterback.

The conversation also delves into the trade deadline, with the Bengals picking up a pass rusher from the Eagles, and the 49ers not making any notable moves. The hosts discuss the possibility of cutting Brennan Ayuk, who is likely to be released by 4 p.m. Eastern time. They also talk about the 49ers' wide receiver situation, with Mike Evans out due to an injury, and the possibility of adding a veteran receiver like Keenan Allen or Josh Downs.

The hosts also discuss the 49ers' safety situation, with three players playing at a high level, but the end goal unclear. They throw out some pipe dream names, including Budda Baker and Derwin James, who could make a difference in the defensive backfield. The conversation is lighthearted, with the hosts discussing their personal experiences, including Walt's Peruvian heritage and his love of Peruvian food.
