The 49ers have traded Davis to the Broncos, ESPN.com reports. Per the report, in return for Davis and a 2016 seventh-round draft pick, the Broncos will send the 49ers sixth-round draft picks in both 2016 and 2017.
EDGE Analysis
Davis, who has recorded 18 catches for 194 yards in six games for the 49ers this season, could see his fantasy value boosted by the deal, though the Broncos also roster fellow tight ends Owen Daniels and Virgil Green, so an immediate impact in his new uniform is hardly a lock. Still, given Davis' experience and athleticism, he could provide QB Peyton Manning with another reliable target in the 7-0 Broncos' passing attack.
as a niner's fan, i've been shaking my head for years at the absolute idiocy they call an offense. one by one, the enitre passing game gets sent elsewhere to thrive. i hope davis steps right in as peyton's new julius, and blows the doors off of defenses.
100% with you rmax; Crabtree isn't looking terrible in Oakland right now. I just wish the Broncos played the 49ers and used Vernon Davis extensively to smash our skulls in. The 49ers franchise is a joke.

considering VD is a rare duel threat for a TE in both blocking and receiving, Broncos are a perfect fit for him.

Maybe they are trying to get him to ditch those silly-looking headphones so he can focus on football. A stint on the pine will be good for him.
