I'm not saying the 9ers should have done the same with Aiyuk... but I feel teams looking for his services will probably put in stipulations that if he leaves the team or some other weird s**t, they can get out of the contract. So although some might not feel so, he might still get paid paid. With that protection, and maybe other incentives.

No one's gonna pay him. His next contract will be a 1 year prove it deal

Seems like BA is about to go the Antonio Brown route.

Someone will take a shot with BA but I'd be shocked if it's not a 1 year prove it deal. He still needs to prove he's the same after the injury. Dude could've rehabbed like he should have and made it back this year to prove he still has it all while getting his money. Then he could've requested a trade in the off-season if he is this upset with the organization. Would have been a win win for everyone involved. The more I think about it the worse it looks on BA.

DK is a menace on the field but that's where it ends with him. He's not a dumbass like BA.

Maybe we do a straight up Trade with the Steelers where we get DK and they get Aiyuk.

This seems like a weird claim to make when DK is currently suspended for 2 games for assaulting a fan during a game. That might legitimately cost the Steelers a playoff berth this year.

He tried to punch a fan. He's every bit the dumbass that BA is. Dude is so f**king fortunate that he missed.

I would've sold that s**t and fell out of the stands onto the field into violent convulsions if I were that dude.

I mean DK is a dumbass all the same, could have gotten sued AND lost that cash. He's an emotional idiot.

different situations though, BA literally ghosted the team that he just signed a big deal with. Went full on AWOL. No one in their right mind is gonna give him any real GTD cash after that stunt. SF sure as s**t isn't gonna do that. I mean it's closer to Campbell just walking off the field mid game than anything.

BA is young and a good player, someone will think they can motivate him or whatever. He won't ever recover they lost money though.

I mean he was pretty damn good. It's a shame how it all went down. I would love to have the real info on all of this

Pretty good? Sure but definitely not worth the TO/ AB type headaches.

Some keep thinking this, but why would a team give him a 1 year prove it deal... if that gives him the option to leave to another team (after proving himself)?

Imo... it would be more than a 1 year deal, with the option to get out of it early if something happens. So yeah he is still going to get paid paid, if he keeps his head straight through the contract.

I can't see anyone giving Aiyuk more than a 1yr prove it deal, he hasn't played in almost 2yrs now by the time 2026 comes, and after what he's done, I wouldn't give him more than a 1yr deal, no way I give him anything significant GTD, he hasn't shown or earned it, he's immature, he obviously doesn't give 2 s**ts about his teammates or else he would have shown up & rehabbed with the 49ers, I'm just so over it, just cut his ass, be done with it, and if someone is willing to get him a multi year deal then that's on them, cause they're likely to get burned, but no way he gets anything significant.

AB his teammates understand his situation. Some know they will get screwed too by our front office or another front office. Hell Jennings got a whiff of how it can be, when he had his weird hold out. I'm sure he got some *rude* pm's on his social media accounts by our fans too. Do you think Jennings is gonna give us a discount, after we had him play this year with the potential of him getting injuried without a long term deal? The players usually stick together because they know how it can be.

This team has typically taken care of its players, especially homegrown talent. Aiyuk got a $120M deal. How exactly did they screw him over? You're trying to make it seem like the predicament Aiyuk finds himself in is a situation that a typical player will end up in. It's not. Play well, get paid, keep playing. If you get injured, rehab. I'm sure they all understand their contractual obligations.

Oh yes, but even that is not enough with NFL Teams at times...

Also I'm not saying our Front Office screwed BA, I've already mentioned how I feel about the situation many times. I just meant in general, front offices do what they have to do... and players are the same.

Gee, I don't know, maybe because he tore multiple ligaments in his knee, quit on his current team after signing a massive contract, and has generally acted like an egotistical jackass for almost two years now. It will be one year prove it deal, slim chance it's two years. Zero chance anything longer than two years.
