Do they have to pick up his 5th year option this off season or next?

This offseason. Deadline is May 1st.

Honestly think he's one of the more underrated players in the league right now. By that I just mean he's not a household name yet but I don't think he's very far off the top WRs in the league. Hopefully with another off-season to get better, and more consistent QB play, he'll earn his place in that upper echelon.

With Kyle it's hard for one player to dominate and rack up huge yards as long as everyone is health. He spreads th ball around so much that a players could be targeted 2 or 3 times early and then not again until the 4th quarter.

JT and BJ didn't really have that many. Best seasons were in the 60 range. Mostly like 40 catch seasons.

I'm the 4th option on the team and still put up 1,000 yards. And year 4 I'm really about to take off. So when it's contract time pay me correctly. Lil Baby and EST Gee are that he thinks keep it real. So he's comparing himself to them.

He's going to have a big year, especially if Lance, his preferred QB, is the starter. He's going to be hard to keep.

There are plenty of other teams that were able to keep two great receivers even while paying a quarterback a very high salary. Look at Tampa Bay with Brady, Seattle with Russell Wilson and the Rams with Stafford. They all kept two very high price receivers and so should we.

Especially since Deebo Samuel misses a few games each year

It'll be a tough decision. Those teams didn't have a highly paid LT, MIKE, Edge, TE, WR, RB. But Aiyuk is a stud that is better than his production numbers suggest. If I were him, I'd want to hit free agency.

Yeah if we pick up his option and then hopefully extend him that would be the best bet. If he was smart he would get more in free agency however I know he wants to win a Super Bowl. I think if we win the Super Bowl this year he could most likely be gone. If we don't I think he will stay. Also those teams were stacked, especially Tampa Bay, they had the sack leader at edge they were paying their tackle a lot, they paid so many people including their linebackers so I know we can do it we just have to extend him and back load the contract.

I think Aiyuk is a top-five to top 10 route runner so we need to keep him to help our quarterbacks produce and win games. I hope we do

Guap.

It wouldn't shock me at all if we traded Aiyuk for a first rounder this offseason.

s**tttttttt I hope not 🐻. However you can kind of see the handwriting on the wall. He wants to get paid because he knows he's so much better than his stats reflect and the fact that he said he's the fourth option shows he might want to be the number one or two option somewhere else. This sucks we have to win the Super Bowl this year
