The 49ers and Patriots are discussing a possible trade that would send offensive tackle
Trent Brown to New England,
according to a report Friday morning from Pro Football Talk.
Brown (6-8, 355) has been a starter at right tackle in San Francisco for the past two seasons, but his long-term status with the team entered into serious question Thursday night with the 49ers' selection of Notre Dame offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey in the first round of the NFL Draft.
