Brandon Aiyuk is a 49er! Pick #25, 2020 NFL Draft

The point is to win a Super Bowl this yr, correct? SF needs to find WRs that can beat man coverage, not get rid of them. Outside of BA they don't have that guy. We're dealing with two (maybe 3 ) guys likely gone this time next yr in Kittle/Deebo/jennings. Who's Brock throwing the ball too?

if it was always about trading BA they should have done it before FA started (like they did with Buckner) and had that extra $15M to replenish holes first.

WRs and OL go hand in hand when it comes to pass-pro. You can't get open quickly, then the pass-pro suffers all the same.

Don't even look at St Browns's deal…whatever is reported is straight fluff…we should all understand that by now. Whenever BA's cap hit actually matters they will have multiple contracts off the books anyway.

If getting OL is the number one goal…then move up. We don't need 10 picks. We don't need every single pick next yr.

I think the potential Aiyuk pick gets flipped to OT so there is no direct replacement happening.

After the Lions new contract I slightly favor a trade.

We need an OL rebuild and a trade makes it happen this year.

OT early and Center at 31 is high investment in keeping Purdy upright and giving him time to operate. It's the approach Saints used for Brees when they invested in OGs.

I don't see how we are saying people are full of s**t and writing clickbait articles when we have no insight into where negotiations stand from an actual numbers standpoint.

It's easy to believe we want Aiyuk longterm, and he'd prefer to stay here as well. The question is where each side wants the numbers to land and whether they can mutually agree. Look at what Schefter and TJ said. He wants to be here, but he wants to paid what he's worth. That makes total sense… we just can't see where each side actually stands on the numbers.

I can't see the 49ers making that kind of deal for Aiyuk.

Same. The 1st and 2nd round will have me nervous as s**t

Aiyuk bout to get PAID!

Good job niners, letting other teams set the market. It just tells me that they were really never serious about signing him. As the market stands now, the niners almost can't afford to sign Aiyuk now. Now it doesn't make any sense to sign him.
