Younger and motivated. Something BA and Deebo are not. Its a culture change and a financial one at the same time.
Wow. If the 49ers are able to offload BA's contract that would be something.

I'm starting to mentally get there but I still think the move would have a much higher chance to blow up in our face.

I didn't realize BA has an out in his deal after 2026. There is definitely something to the team seeing his injury, thinking that they may not get the guy they paid big money to back to form until 2026 and then you're basically getting one year before further craziness with the contract again.

I just hate that we're making these moves late. It's costing us draft value and it's coming at bad timing.

This WR draft is not strong at all. I'm confident we can field a solid offense regardless, especially if we make key moves with the OL but just puts that much pressure on having to absolutely nail the draft.

There's no culture change, but BA's major injury is the only thing that is making a move like this feasible.

not knowing BA's future and only need to pay 18m of a slotted 120m contract. That is huge

Do it.

Call me crazy but I'm not dealing Aiyuk for less than a 3rd. I wouldn't mind Mayer but he's being severely overvalued imo.

Aiyuk's upside is still much greater than Deebo's. Guys come back from injuries all the time. Guys get signed off injuries all the time.

I get that maybe the team was thrown a major curve ball with the injury and now you don't know if Aiyuk will be the guy you need him to be until 2026 and then you're dealing with likely another contract situation with him but man I hate losing a guy of his talent level and heading into a weak WR class draft.

Feels like if we move him our 2nd round pick needs to be a WR and that hurts our ability to add to the trenches.

I disagree, they very easily could add another legit starting caliber RB and use CMC as receiver. Say a Skattebo in the 3rd or 4th. Would give us Mason, Skattebo and IG at RB. Jennings, Pearsall, CMC, Cowing at WR. With a day 3 WR.

That would allow us not to force a WR pick.

We need another George Kittle. Someone who can catch and be a great blocker. Forget the WRs. We drafted two high last year.

Yes it is. We had an old, unmotivated and a me first team last year. I expect more cuts to come including Juice.

Juice was almost cut last year but he accepted a pay cut which he wasn't happy about

he may be asked again this year
I don't know why I think this but I think this BA trade talk is nonsense.

It just doesn't make sense to me why someone would trade for an unknown recovery AND why would the niners leave themselves that thin at WR.

Not buying it.

You might want to rethink calling him Skat especially if he ends up here.
