Aiyuk to Pitt Almost completed

What do ya know… when you make it clear to the team trying to sign you that you won’t sign anywhere else for any reason and only want to play for them forever and always, they kind of have very little incentive to pay you top dollar… since they have no competition for your services and all that.

I am guessing that the reports of Aiyuk re-engaging talks with SF is his attempt of trying to find leverage again to get the offer from PIT up a bit more. He shot himself in the foot.

It’s been “Pittsburgh trade happening any minute” for what… 3 weeks? Longer?
 
Wolf on the phone.

The 49ers Drafted Two WR's last draft one in the First Round. Seems like they were getting ready for life after Aiyuk...come home Brandon:
Maye needs you.
 
This is how I feel about the Aiyuk situation...

 
It has kinda struck me as odd how much the team is courting top WRs despite obviously needing OL help more (though there is not really much OL help on the market either) - but perhaps Wolf feels that an elite receiver needs to be accounted for and will cause defenses to send extra pass rushers less often, which makes life easier on their OL.
 
Wolf already said yesterday the door is closed on Aiyuk.
He aint coming.

The door is only closed until it opens again. It is extremely doubtful he will be coming here, but the door isn't completely closed until he re-signs with the 49ers or is traded somewhere else.
 
@Ring 6 care to comment? You claim they aren't willing to spend money, but the Pats were willing to give Aiyuk an significant amount of upfront money. Doesn't sound cheap to me.
Andy is a broken record and embarrassing himself with his ridiculous threads and "70 free agents" nonsense. He is mad Bill got canned and he is now pissy with Kraft and the team. Andy could ever respond to reasons to reason when he was a homer and unsurprisingly still can't as the leader of the mope squad.
 
Who is Jack Sperry and wtf is chatsports?
Yeah a bit sketchy with that one…but was reported by other known sources not much later after this one…I think.
 
Dodged a bullet here, keep the draft capitol. We’re going to need it.

We are sitting on 50 mill. We are short a hell of a lot more than 1 player. Rumors about what we were “willing to do” for a guy using us as a bargaining chip doesn’t make us a better team.

Yes we should all be thrilled with the incredible efforts to improve this 4 win team. I can’t wait for our playoff run.

They got rid of those two main things holding them back. The guy drafting the players and the quarterback. Seems like improvement to me.
