Trent Dilfer is at odds with the Browns and so the club is continuing to discuss a trade with the 49ers, according to a league source. It could be done within the next day or two, the source said. The 49ers are interested in Dilfer as a backup to Alex Smith, the first pick of the 2005 draft.

A 49ers spokesman said the team is not in contact with the Browns. Dilfer's agent did not return a phone message.
