I personally don't think TO was as bad as the media tried to paint him...but that was a different time....the media might have known a ton of negative stuff, but did not publish it due to sourcing issues. ..very different then today when they just make stuff up out of thin air.

As far as BA, good player...but not a great let alone all time great

he was worse

Same people who turned on Deebo and Bosa. It's kinda funny every year.

I don't think anybody turned on Bosa because he kept his mouth shut and just let his agent take care of it. The way it should be. But WR's seem to have a different script than everybody else. It's not just the Niners, It's all WR's around the league. And I really don't see anything they accomplish by acting this way, other than painting themselves in a negative light. Are team's really going to cave because the player airs out all their dirty laundry?

T.O. was fun, ridiculous but fun . Standing on the Cowboy's star, was a moment lol but then later on, he was a Cowboy, just hilarious. Such a fun time, F☆ck Dallas

yeah i dont remember BA getting suspended twice in the same season. first in training camp for a week and then for four games in-season for conduct detrimental to the team.

He could have been...the media use to sit on personality issues without tons of sources...I could see how he could be...but I never faulted the dude for the star stuff, and the I was not the one puking in the 4th...dude came back and risked permanent injury to win a Superbowl and his out shape QB folded....i would preferred the high road...but I get it....

Either way BA is a Saint by comparison if also a shadow of the talent

So apparently both parties said things they needed to express and there's no plan for any trade. Well that doesn't tell me Jacks**t.

it does. No trade = BA signing around camp time

I expect the Niners wll sign Aiyuk and trade Deebo after the season if one or both of the guys they drafted look good in camp and pre season. I don't know why but I have a good feeling about Pearsall.

This was my takeaway too. If this report (https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-49ers-had-good-meeting-with-brandon-aiyuk-not-seeking-to-trade-him) is true that the meeting went well and that the 49ers have no interest in trading Aiyuk and Aiyuk has no interest in a trade, and both want him here long-term, it would seem to indicate they're...at best...closer than they were; and, at minimum, amicably still apart in terms of numbers but confident they'll get there.

I guess there's the possibility that they could also dig their heels in and Aiyuk will commit to playing out his final year, if need be, but if that was the case, I can't imagine he'd leave that meeting on good terms. In that scenario, I imagine he would have grown more disgruntled and requested a trade.

Our team is way better conduct wise now..the Harbaugh years were especially embarrassing..DUI here, domestic violence there..10 or so arrests of Niners players? Srsly, I almost walked away from football and didn't feel that great being a Niners fan. Did not have much pride in my team. Just no good. I am glad it's cleaned up now.

Was especially sweet when the FO and ownership effectively blamed the guy who didn't have control of the roster.

Win with class though.

we're gonna get a contract for him and we'll all celebrate and be happy he's a niner! let's gooooo

prolly posted before but posting because i think there a few here who think BA is average and can be easily replaced.

AND HE BLOCKS LIKE A MADMAN

Few WRs in the NFL bring as much versatility to the field as Brandon Aiyuk. Last year he ranked 3rd in total EPA among all playmakers, 7th in yds, 8th in Y/RR. Very few receivers work the entire field, against every coverage, like Aiyuk does. Total package, easily a Top 10 WR. pic.twitter.com/riSUi9GnV4
