San Francisco reportedly turned them down, but this shows that the Lions are actively pursuing a trade and may ultimately back down from their asking price of a first-round pick. The NFL trading period ends at 4PM Tuesday. <strong>Source:</strong> <a href="http://blog.pressdemocrat.com/49ers/2008/10/no-changes-are-coming-for-49ers-beleaguered-defense.html" rel="nofollow">Santa Rosa Press Democrat </a> <strong>Related:</strong> <a href="http://www.rotoworld.com/content/clubhouse_relatednews.aspx?sport=NFL&majteam=SF" rel="nofollow">49ers</a> According to the Santa Rosa Press Democrat, the Lions contacted the 49ers to gauge interest in Roy Williams.
