I saw that we are trading Aiyuk for a fifth rounder and their backup DE.

He better be. Pittsburgh's OL is the only thing I like in terms of trading.

I wanted Cooper
James Daniels is nothing to get excited about.
If Aiyuk is in fact traded, I hope the Niners make a statement by locking up Lenoir, Ward and getting the Silverback taken care of quickly.
Can we have Daniels AND Moore? At least let us double dip on the OL ffs.

Feels like we are going to get screwed on this Trade like we did with TO.

always gonna get screwed in a forced trade scenario

Yeah, but technically they're weren't forced. He's under contract. For whatever that's worth….apparently not much

teams generally don't keep players that don't want to be there. B.A forced the trade by saying trade me as well as by saying I want what i'm worth, not what your willing to give me.

I can't blame Aiyuk if that's his position. You should be paid for what you are worth. But as an employee you are paid for what the positon is worth, not *your* worth. Unfortunately for the 49ers the WR market exploded on them. Not their fault. I still think there is a chance to retain Aiyuk, but it's clear he wants more money and my optimism is really low now on keeping him - considering the current WR market. I still have hope though.

The market determines the players worth, but we are dealing with humans not computers so it is what it is. I do blame the 49ers for not knowing what was coming, the NFL is a business not a guessing game. We supposedly over paid Kap & Jimmy G because we knew the QB market would explode and those deals would look like steals, so we can't now turn around and say they didn't know. WE reset the RB market by extending CMC, so our front office are not victims here.

Now I wonder what this means for Trent? Without him we are just a regular team.

I would think it's easier to pay Trent now if they don't have to pay Aiyuk. 49ers were confident they could sign Aiyuk, but (i think) after the draft is when the WR market exploded. Maybe that's why they got surprised by Aiyuk's position of wanting to get paid. It is what it is. Life goes on, they did draft two receivers just in case this year - so i don't think they were totally surprised.
Aiyuk for Mike Tomlin straight up

No Its Aiyuk and a backup DE for a fifth rounder
James Daniels is a backup.

Aiyuk won the battle.

One year of a middling G, what a get

He has experience in snow, its not like he's from Florida.

The mid-west can drop to 40 below, Reno never gets anywhere close to that cold. Also, the snow is different (it's much heavier here in Reno). 40 degrees below zero sucks (I've experienced it living in Montana, South Dakota and Minnesota). That lake effect weather is no joke.

With that said, players don't really get bothered by it (unless you're Miami playing the Chiefs) and Aiyuk will be fine.

My point was that you can't compare winter in Reno to winter in the mid-west. I've lived in both, they're not anywhere close to the same.
