I think if Jed, Paraag, John, and Kyle went to Brandon and apologized to him, I think things could be repaired. We'd probably have to figure out a way to restore his guarantees though. Sadly, our FO is very prideful, so it likely won't happen.
Do they have to suck his cock on ESPN too?
If that's what it takes to win a Super Bowl...

Yeah, no. Let's not get absurd. Might as well say if child sacrifice guaranteed a Super Bowl win you'd back a GM performing the ceremony.
Reality is that some things are not worth selling out your integrity for. People gotta live their lives outside of sports sometimes. Sheesh.
Well, you were the one that started with the absurd suggestion. An apology is not the equivalent to a child sacrifice or performing fellatio on TV. If it all it took to smooth things over with Aiyuk was for the FO to apologize for their role in this mess, then I'd hope they'd put their pride aside and do it. Managing the egos of your star players and keeping them happy is just part of the job.
We should be doing what we need to do to win the Super Bowl. We were in the Super Bowl with Aiyuk. We haven't gotten past the divisional round since he left the team and a big problem against the Seahawks was our receivers' inability to get open.
Boo hoo, negotiations were tough. Boo hoo Aiyuk got a huge contract that he willingly signed. Why am I supposed to empathize with him, exactly?
You seem desperate to make the 49ers the bad guy here.
