This trade grades out as a slight overpay for the San Francisco 49ers — the team is getting approximately what they're paying for in on-field production. Osa's on-field performance ranks in the upper half among NFL DTs, grading him as a solid starter at the position. His $20.0M average annual value ranks as mid-range money for the DT market. The production lines up closely with the price tag — solid starter production at mid-range money, which is essentially paying fair market value. Osa is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract. The 4-year, $80.0M contract with $39.0M guaranteed (49%) represents a moderate investment with room to exit if needed.
