But that is irrelevant to what you are claiming; BA & Org both didn't like the deals, 9ers wanted out of a contract that was sitting for weeks and all this other disagreement stuff?
The contract wasn't sitting for weeks though. It was offered, rejected, and pulled. The 49ers went to work to trade him. Then Aiyuk went to Shanahan directly, who stopped the FO from trading him, and agreed to a similar offer. That's what Albert Breer's reporting and Aiyuk's agent are broadcasting here.
Aiyuk 100 percent liked the deal. That's why he signed it. Everyone loves to hang on his comment at signing about making it harder than it had to be, but he also said he was happy and where he wanted to be. His actions… rejecting trades, going to Shanahan personally, and ultimately signing… align with that comment.
Use your critical thinking skills. Why is somebody with the 49ers effectively smearing Aiyuk hours after the deal is made? Most fans are celebrating a deal is done. Absolutely no need to pick a side.
Still no proof I see
but, you just posted it was waiting for weeks, 3 weeks to be exact. According to an outside report. Aiyuk wanted a trade not the 49ers. 49ers were left no choice after there was no movement on the most current offer.
you say above that Aiyuk liked the deal, but the start of this convo was me trying to find out why you said BA didn't like the contract ?
Not sure why you choose to ignore "Making it harder" also. In hindsight, That is now a major red flag. Asking for trades and having to back off those trades proves he's making it harder for no reason.
who from the 49ers org was smearing the deal hours after? Click bait reporting/reports are not facts
