Brandon Aiyuk is under contract for a little more than $14 million this season. The #49ers survived a trade request from Deebo Samuel. We’ll see if they can find their way through this one from Aiyuk. https://t.co/jKpRuBqOkJ
Pay Aiyuk, keep McCaffrey and Deebo, plus all the other talent, trade Purdy to NYG and pkg some picks to move up for a 1st round QB on another cost controlled rookie deal to take that talent filled roster over the top. [Reply]

Aiyuk had Sneed beat badly in the endzone on their last play before a field goal, Purdy couldn't see it because Chris Jones was about to sack him. But he's probably salty as hell about that, has to be. [Reply]

I don't really know if that's an option, though.
If Jimmy G were still serviceable as a game manager starting QB, he'd still be making Geno money at a minimum. I don't know if the Niners could give top-end deals at their respective positions to all those guys and still dole out Geno money to their QB. And if they did, they'd for sure be seeing some cuts to some to their defense.
I get that Trent Williams is going to retire soon. That will help them, certainly, but they've still got 2 $100 million WRs, a pricey TE contract, the top RB contract, a top 3 DE contract, a top 10 CB contract, yadda yadda yadda.
Purdy costs them nothing and that's the only real reason why they can consider extending Aiyuk right now. [Reply]

And then everyone will be saying 'He's getting paid more than Mahomes! Chiefs are a garbage organization!' because they can't understand that Mahomes already signed a record deal and it just goes up every time. [Reply]

I'd take my chances on whatever mobile phenoms come out with a decent arm and try to replicate what Philly did with Jalen. [Reply]
Deebo is gone after this year, he’s not really a wr. If they’re smart they’d pay aiyuk, keep him with purdy and trade deebo next offseason or cut him. [Reply]

Man, just imagine if we would've signed Trent Williams how good this OL would be!!! lol 4 of our starters would've made the top 10 for OTs and IOL. [Reply]
