Well, it is 9/1/26. It was said we were delusional to think that BA would still be on the reserve/left squad list.

Now that this time has arrived, I think it is time for some of us to give the team a bit of grace and allow for the chance that BA may have been to blame for a big part of what has transpired between him and the team. BA will continue to remain on the reserve/left squad list as some here have said where we can enjoy the accordion math baked into his signing bonus and it will not change until he gets reinstated and forces our hand by having the guts to show up at 49er HQ.

We could have used a healthy BA last year and this year and the deal we made with him has really screwed us along with Pearsall always being hurt and yet here we are having to do without both 1st rd picks at WR. For a position that takes fewer hits than a RB or a TE we sure seem to be injury riddled at WR. Sheesh!

Now that the season is beginning I am hoping Stribling helps us to forget about the huge loss that is Aiyuk and Pearsall

I blame the front office for signing him to a new contract. After that, who in their right mind blames the 49ers management.

100% correct. Low character head cases should not be rewarded. They should have let him go.

Should have traded Aiyuk to the Steelers for their offer of second- and third-round draft picks

As much as we as fans feel betrayed by AB, I guarantee Kyle feels 100x worse about being betrayed by AB. Kyle stuck his neck out for him and got essentially decapitated for his efforts. It's an experience that could change a guy, making him less willing to help other players down the road, no matter how much more worthy of his support they would be compared to AB.

I don't see Kyle sticking anything out.. he's not that type of guy.

most likely he just said, Bro you're about to get traded and BA said I don't want to leave

rest is history

We couldn't trade Aiyuk if he wasn't willing to be traded. No team was going to trade for him unless Aiyuk made it clear he'd agree to a contract extension with the new team.

COuldn't agree more...

Scuttlebutt said the trade to Pitt was finalized and BA called Shanny, Shanny called it off, in good faith, and BA betrayed him. signed the contract the dumb c_nt had in front of his face for over 6 mo..

That's my take.

He's like you. Nobody in their right mind wants the cancer in their LR>
It's tag and trade. Let them find out how much another team is willing to pay him and then discuss compensation. If they're determined to price themselves out of the 49ers price range they should be traded. I supported the Buckner trade. Results were bad. A 2nd and 3rd for Aiyuk would have been fair. You can never guarantee they'll live up to their big contracts. That puts the onus on the coaches developing the new talent.

So you think the Steelers or whoever would have happily given up draft picks for a player who might not be willing to sign an extension with them? A team isn't going to trade significant draft capital for a player that doesn't want to play for them. It'd be no different than when AB was traded to the Bills.

What don't you understand. Kyle stopped the trade. if he didn't, BA is gone
Where is Waldo? It seems like he finally figured out how to shut up………..waaaay too late but he did learn On the other hand I hope he's getting the help he needs.

To blame Kyle is absolutely asinine, Ayuik agreed to the deal we had on the table at the very last second and turned down multiple offers from other teams willing to pay him significantly more $
Why are you guys still talking about this guy? He's washed like last weeks laundry...

I agree - the BA debacle has probably taught both KS an Lynch that once they a relationship moves to the point of a player saying they want to move on, just move on. Even if the player stays they won't really ever be as committed as they were before.

What will be interesting, is now that Deebo say the grass may not be greener elsewhere, maybe he'll play with passion again for the 9ers - really for his teammates first. We'll see - it's a big maybe.
