It just doesn't make sense to trade him without at least getting a 2nd but wit the complete destruction of our cap space idc if we move on from him for a 4th and just eat the dead cap. Seems like that's the plan eat as much dead cap this year as possible
I don't understand the point in moving him. The value is about as low as it gets right now. They need playmakers even if he's still here.

Sorry to tell you but unless he has a miraculous Adrain Peterson return next season his value isn't going up, he probably won't be ready till later in the season so he's not having a big year and if we are not in the playoff race we might just shelve him even longer

If he gets traded, it will likely be a late round pick. Like a 6th or 7th. Its rare for teams to bail out another team and take on a new contract. Even rarer when that play just shredded his knee. The idea is that if the price is low enough, maybe another team will take it on.

49ers fanbase will light their torches and breakout the pitchforks if they trade Aiyuk.
Just makes no sense to trade him

No we won't.

We have 3 good receivers on the roster and Kittle plus a healthy CMC.

Id trade him and that contract for a pick tomorrow
If they trade him one year after a monster contract then I really question the front office decision making. Such a stupid move if that's the case. Hope he gets healthy and contributes.

Ricky, JJ, Robinson.

They are good, but neither are elite, like BA was and can be if comes back healthy.

I'm worried about BA untagging all 49er stuff on his SM.

It looks like the 49ers probably told him they are actively shopping him.

Robinson won't even start the season (at least that's what I been told), which is why I think they need to bring in another veteran.
