Many in NE believe the Pats offer was fake just so Kraft could say he tried. He is cheap and all he had to do is keep guaranteed money low so Aiyuk would refuse. This is always how it is with the Pats, they always have a low payroll and always just miss out on expensive players. No way Kraft wants to pay this guy all that money just because fans want a WR. Typical Kraft move.

@johnchedsey1306 Месяц назад

This is a silly take. In your workplace, do you take less pay to "spread the wealth"? Hell no. I understand salary cap implications, but unlike your workplace or mine, Aiyuk can't just submit his resume and find a better paying job. He knows his worth and the workplace situation he wants, and he's trying to get it. Also, as a Seattle fan, I totally want him to find his best scenario...hopefully in the AFC.

@Reecesavage-Alwayswin Месяц назад

@johnchedsey1306 Exactly 💯, most people will look at the situation as a fan of the sport 1 sided. However, the 49ers organization simply can't afford him, nor do they prioritize his talent, which is a slap in the face to Aiyuk. Their recent SB run Aiyuk was the number 1 option 78 targets 1360yds and 7 TDs, only a few outplayed him. Now you're asking him to take 22.5 guaranteed but leaking it to the media, that the contract is for 26 per to make it sound good and to tarnish his reputation is sad. We see this every year, and organizations always make it seem like the players are the problem of an undervalued contract.

4 million extra means you can have 200-400k a year extra to live off in perpetuatity. If I think I can get that level of generational wealth I'd tried. This is the most he will ever make most likely (unless he goes into business or something post football). All that is of course from a business standpoint, I do agree I'd rather play for a little less on a competent team... same issue happens in business, you can get a lot of money quick from a company that a crap show and hate you life or spend a decade at growing mid sized company with great people.

@stickman1742 lol. I would take Jefferson over him too. But Jefferson is at 35. So aiyuk asking for 32 while also being a top 10 receiver is fine. 😅 I don't understand. He is not open due to other ppl. He's one of the best route runners in the league. Period. That's why.

@ericmcgrouther7368 Месяц назад

I don’t understand aiyuk. He was offered 26 mil a year from the 49ers and won’t take it because he feels he deserves more. But then he declines 32 millions because he doesn’t want to be on a bad team. If you wanna get paid and be on a winning team, I feel the 26 million a year the 9ths offered is more than fair. Plus is it really worth him going to the Steelers for a couple million more a year when the Steelers are a much worse team than the 9ers. At this point I don’t even know what aiyuk wants.

@ThePowerOfOneThePowerOfTwo Месяц назад

Steelers are worse than the 9ers but are set up much better than the Pats. It'd be a decent landing spot for him but he'd be much MUCH better off getting $26mil/yr with a stacked team. His next contract could still net him more money with his current role rather than going to some trash team and having his production drop off significantly, thus making his following contract follow suit....

@JustSomeGuy009 Месяц назад

Exactly. He's jockeying for what will amount to a 2-4m a year increase. On what, a contract that will be 4yrs max? Which means his agent and him will want to renegotiate after 2yrs anyway. All this over 4-8m total probably. To play on a worse team and have a high chance of messing up his long-term career prospects. Makes no sense. I bet you anything they could have agreed on a 27m deal for the next 2 years with him going into FA after. Dude would have either got his 30m extension or on FA at that point especially being on a contender.

@brandall101 Месяц назад

He truly believes he's a top guy and wants to be in a place where he's getting enough targets to put up 1600+ yard seasons while being paid like the guys who do that. He basically said this much in the Ryan Clark interview. While he'd love a ring, he's sore about lack of targets in the big game he just played.

Well it's $26m & probably less once we know the details (Like how Amon-Ra's $30m is actually $28m). We know through TJ Housh who works with Aiyuk that he would've taken Amon-Ra's deal. The 9ers never intended to pay him once the WR market blew up. Instead of getting mad at the 9ers for misevaluating the WR market or not signing Aiyuk earlier, you got fooled by the 9ers PR into thinking Aiyuk's the bad guy. Why don't the 9ers do the Amon-Ra deal? Why is no one mad at Bosa for not taking a few million less to keep the team together? Why is no one mad that CMC & Trent got greedy to the point that the 9ers won't pay $4m more (which is market rate)? Surely Purdy will agree behind the scenes to take $4m less from his future $55-60m deal to keep Aiyuk.

Lol Buff ain't even in the conversation are they? Besides, yall just got done dealing with Diggs I doubt they'd go out and get Aiyuk. You all have young talent to evaluate so it'd be better to go with the soft reboot of your offense rather than taking a big swing (and a for sure miss) at trying to go the distance with Aiyuk

@stickman1742 Месяц назад

Many in NE think the Pats was a fake offer just so Kraft could say he tried. They probably kept the guaranteed money very low. Kraft has always been cheap and I doubt he would want to spend all that money on a guy that isn't going to take them to a SB. Hell, he wouldn't spend even when they were winning SBs.

This is likely a blessing in disguise for the Patriots. They don't have an elite number one WR, but the fact he turned down the Pats offer is stupid for him. He has played in a Shanahan offense that has CMC, Deebo, Kittle etc. He complained about the 49'ers not paying him, but then when a team does he says he wants to go to another winning team. Aiyuk is good, but he isn't an Alpha - thank god the Pats aren't paying him 32+ million a year.

@NotAnotherDouc- Месяц назад

Steelers makes sense for him. QB situation alone is better than his other options. Having both Russ and Fields significantly increases the chance he has a solid QB because if one sucks they can still try the other. Better odds than rolling the dice on the rookie QB in New England for sure.

@rohanshah7559 18 дней назад

@user-ci5sf5qj2k Месяц назад

I suspect the big issues for the 49er's are Trent Williams current situation and Brock Purdy's upcoming contract. On one hand these aren't Aiuk's problems...but on the other hand they are as they affect what the 49er's feel they can pay Aiuk and still maintain the quality of the team. I wish him the best. I don't believe it will be with SF.

@mclew1234 29 дней назад

Simple for the Niners, play the year out & then tag him, I think the league has seen from JuJu, Bell, AB etc it you sit you out the year you are basically done. Aiyuk can chose to be paid like a #1 or be on a winning team, any team that can offer both will have a stud QB on a RC deal which would be stay in SF or go to Houston & Houston are loaded at WR so won't be interested. A large part of Brady's success was due to the fact that he realised he needed to take less money to have a winning team around him & it's no shock that until the very end of his career when guys would play with for pennies on the $ to ring chase his most successful seasons were when his cap hits were minimised

Aiyuk is going to have a very hard time getting a better offer than $32 million. For mot contenders, adding a $32 million contract could be cap problematic - contenders are usually spending the whole salary cap. To play for a real contender, Aiyuk will have to tone down his salary demands.

Aiyuk wants his well deserved money and the Niners aren’t willing to give it him. Given how his career started there this should be surprising.

That's true, its also the GM's job to construct the most competitive team WITH the salary cap in mind so they have financial freedom moving forward, all players are assigned a 'value'. Stop asking these GM's to "pay that man" or "give him his bag" every time and get mad when you vs the GM value players differently.
