"Watch For The 49ers To Trade Deebo Samuel To Keep & Pay Brandon Aiyuk" NFL Insider | Pat McAfee 

yeah, trading away deebo is waiving off your 'win now' moment

i bet the 49ers offered to make him the highest paid athlete in the world

@@12thMandalorianNo they didn’t cause he would’ve taken it….

*It's, not is

@@dariusstewart6775 I noticed after. Decided against fixing it👍🏾

its the off season they are just happy to be yapping about something

Completely agree but there’s nothing to talk about

At least speculate about trading for a RT and WR for Aiyuk. 49ers need lineman, especially at RT.

No. We all know. Destroy the regular season. Don’t have talent in post season. Never fails. Horrible organization tbh

It be like that. Bad time to watch these shows. Hit the podcast more entertaining

Not loaded on the outside. The field shrinks without him. 81% of his receptions are touchdowns and first downs.

@@d3vp131 How much coverage does Kittle, Deebo and CMC pull away from Aiyuk? Would BA have the same #'s if he was the only real threat like many of these other wideouts?

@@lisaac9477when Deebo and kittle were hurt last year BA was consistently cooking CB1s. As someone that’s watched every 49er snap for over a decade. He is elite, and criminally underrated. Still not worth $30M, but elite.

​@@Ytuser485 Except when Deebo & Kittle were hurt, Aiyuk put up the exact same numbers he has when they are all on the field. There is something to be said that Aiyuk's production didn't drop off when he became the #1 passing option for those 3 or so games, but he also didn't put up better numbers, either. When the biggest excuse people use for him not playing better is "But Aiyuk is the 4th, or at best, 3rd option on the offense. There just aren't enough balls to go around for him to catch 100 passes." Well, when Deebo, Trent Williams & Kittle were hurting at points during the 1st half of the season, Aiyuk put up the same stats on average as all the other weeks of the season.

Trent was also down in those three games in a struggling oline.

100%

​@bepeas80 right! He's overrated I think, he's like the 3-4 priority to stop from a defensive standpoint. I think the nines are waiting til cuts to see what veteran free agents will be available so they can pick a serviceable guy and then trade ayiuk

He would be productive on the Chargers probably

100 percent!

There’s no way of saying either way. Maybe he does go to the Commanders and becomes a monster or maybe he doesn’t. Saying he definitely won’t is stupid. Dude has made the most out of being the 4th option and is a beast. I’m all for him getting as much as he can.

It's actually 2, JJ and AJ

Only thing is Deebo gets hurt almost every year.

Agreed. Deebo is one of one, you can find another Aiyuke

@@jaredpribylone hundred percent agree. Aiyuk is an incredibly special player. His route running, understanding of beating zone coverage and his hands are all elite, especially his route running. However, great wide receivers are plentiful in the NFL. Only a handful of Deebo Samuels come around in a lifetime.

​@@jaredpribyl they drafted 2

Deebo ain’t a true 1WR he don’t wanna be in that hybrid role so 1’s gotta go and if you ask me Ricky has the intangibles as deebo. Truth is they didn’t draft aiyuks replacement they drafted deebos

It’s all relative. For his position and production he is. It’s just what it is. He should closer to 30 a year

@562LA2THEBAY I understand in comparison, but let's be real. 99% of people would kill to get 14 mill a year to play a game.

Truth

wrong...Deebo's time is over. His purpose no longer needed. Deebo was brought in for Jimmy G. so Kyle could get the maximum from a short passing game. That's no longer needed, and since Aiyuk is the more complete receiver, he should be the one who stays.

@@nadjasunflower1387 someone doesn't watch the games and looks at the box score. Last year without Deebo available the Niners went 1-4. Aiyuk has proven he cannot operate as a standalone 1. If we're being real he's fancy Diontae Johnson. Definitely a good player but not worth the contract he's asking for. Also Deebo and Trent are the soul of the team. If you trade away Deebo that destroys the locker room. But sure man you got it

Deebo was so awful last year. He's that crap you stepped in and can't get completely scrapped off your shoe. He'd be great on a team that only runs the ball. He couldn't catch or run routes at full speed last year... God forbid anyone need him to throw a block. He's already retired from playing football, he's just hanging out cashing checks.

@@PureMagma Awful? He had 1,000 AP yards and missed games.

in particular press man coverage has given him fits.

Also this isn't true. He put up 156 yards against Tampa, 130 against Pittsburgh, and 120 against Baltimore. He's only really disappeared because Kyle Shanahan doesn't prefer to target Ayuik that much and prefers to not scheme him open as much compared to Deebo. (Who usually struggles against Man coverage)

This take couldn’t be anymore wrong lmao the niners have so many weapons but you’re equating lack of targets to not being open. He literally cooked Snead and broke his ankles and was wide open most of the super bowl 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 he gets open just as much as davante adams u better watch tape my boy

Aiyuk is open because the first and second read are All Pro options. Third read is Deebo lol. Aiyuk is being covered by 3rd and 4th DB. Of course he is open, even when he is deployed as a decoy route. He gonna get locked down when he is the only weapon on the team

@@RipliWitani aiyuk is guarded by the best cb everytime he plays lol I would know I’ve watched every single snap of every niner game bro. There’s a reason Snead was on aiyuk the vast majority of the super bowl and still got routed hella times lol deebo isn’t a good route runner and neither is Jennings. Aiyuk is an elite route runner

Because pro athletes are money hungry divas today. Once upon a time, the greatest players took pay cuts to keep their core together. Players are happier "getting the bag" today than winning anything.

@lisaac9477 I call that the "Rodgers effect" "The best modern QB" cannot win a Superbowl because his roster is not strong enough after paying him ! The year Brady won his 7th ring, He was paid $25 million. Rodgers was on $50 Million that year. So the Bucs got Brady, Gronk( $10million) and $15 million to spend on the rest of the roster, all for what Green Bay paid Rodgers. Greed gets what it deserves..... They get paid, and FORGOTTEN. No America's Game highlighting their team. And TV jobs go to ring holders.

Ravens offered a mid round pick for him back before the draft

*Quoth*

Nevermore is our salary cap man.

DEEBO looks like a formal raven 🐦‍⬛

It wasn't that he wasn't good...watch film. He was alway open on the deep route...Jimmy G. doesn't throw intermediate to deep routes. So Aiyuk was the " run off " man during that allowing Deebo to catch all of the slants and short routes underneath.

There's a such thing as Wide Receivers getting better. Most GB fans hated Davante Adams guts when he first started because he kept dropping passes. Crazy concept I know

@@maskedman5657 not being a douche every second of ur existence, crazy concept I know

@@johnconner6846 not a douche all the time.

Aiyuk has been there longer than Purdy putting up numbers with jimmy g. Purdy is an average qb that got drafted into the best situation possible and leeches off the credit that should be going to his all pros

Trading Deebo would cost the 49ers 20+ dead cap. It's not a great option at all until next season.

Right because aiyuk is a threat in the backfield or in the slot lol. How many WR out there can catch a deep ball? All of them. Which ones can lineup as a RB or pick up tons of YAC in the slot? Deebo is a unique threat he's more crucial to the way the offense operates even if he's not touching the ball.

Deebo had four more touchdowns in three less games

@@Kenny49ERS And 1,000 All-Purpose yards in three less games.

We won’t pay what he wants because he don’t deserve what he wants. We got his replacement.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

We won’t pay what he wants because he don’t deserve what he wants. We got his replacement.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@lisaac9477 more than that 892 receiving 225 rushing 7 receiving TDs 5 rushing TDs. Few wide receivers put up those kind of numbers. Justin Jefferson, Davante Adams, Amon Ra St. Brown more like 6-9 TDs, tops.

Don't forget Kittle and CMC as well. I don't think BA does what he does without these other plyers pulling coverage way from him.

Deebo's time is over. His purpose no longer needed. Deebo was brought in for Jimmy G. so Kyle could get the maximum from a short passing game. That's no longer needed, and since Aiyuk is the more complete receiver, he should be the one who stays. the only part of the passing game Deebo is good for is the short game. drags and slants, we need actual receivers and not just gimmick players. Add to that Deebo's always hurt for 3-4 game per year, as he gets older that's only going to go up...best to trade him now while there's still something to get from him because his value's going down already from what it was a couple years ago

@@nadjasunflower1387Deebo had 4 more TDs in 3 less games. He’s not done. Not sure why you think that.

@@Kenny49ERS so your a stat watcher, cool. how did he get those TD's ? Because there's only one I remember off hand that was a route of anything more than 10-15 yards. think it was Seattle, and busted coverage...

@@nadjasunflower1387 TDs win games

@@nadjasunflower1387 Does it matter how? I mean BA is good, but let's not pretend any 49er receiver is getting doubled, which is what would happen to BA in most other offenses. BA would disappear on a team like LV, just like DeVonte Adams has.

They can also sign a number of really good vets in 2025. I suspect CMC and Kittle are untouchable but Aiyuk and Deebo will be gone with in 2 years.

@@RipliWitani Agreed. Hopefully, they'll take some huge swings at the offensive line in '25. No idea if it's true or not, but if they left some of the alleged offers for Aiyuk on the table, that could have boosted the offensive line or other areas of the team, then I'll really start to question the front office. I defend them all the time, but can't justify that.

Yes and no. Because ur forgetting h9w much repore he has with brock. Like they have chemistry. I don't want him to go they all work together too good.

Yes there are many dawgs out there fur sure, but there is just so many little things he does that just makes his case strong

They are, which makes zero sense because they come dime a dozen.

Waddle is getting 28.5M. Aiyuk should be looking for 30-33M

@@stronghold07ptx85 MIA is insane to pay Waddle that. Probably why they won't be winning anything this year, and will get productively worse down the road.

No that’s having so many other weapons which allows you to look better than you are

Because they’re like your only competition except for maybe the lions. Try being in the afc and the gauntlet we have to get through

And I love that y'all are stuck with Hurts for the foreseeable future

Loser wouod

​@GoldTau-t1b cap hell with the cap going up every year for the foreseeable future? nah... they just have all the leverage with him for the next 3 seasons. The franchise tag after this season 😂for a couple years at 24-25 mill then adios into free agency if need be

Pay the qb peanuts for as long as you can....

Hadn’t payed any QB in years bro they only focus on defense and offense while other teams like NY Giants, broncos, etc pay a qb and they team sacrifice both sides to being decent

Might be why they suck and the 49ers are a playoff team every year

I'd take Deebo too but he cant stay healthy even if his life depended on it.

@@flacoplays5714 They have two years before Purdy gets paid to win a SB. McCafrey and Deebo has a much better chance than McCafree and Aiyuk do in that same span. There is no long term here for this team, in win now mode you take the best player, injuries be damned.

​@@mikeclark7026they have to pay Purdy after this season.

@@zackhurwitz9441 You sure? First things First was saying yesterday it’s after next

@@mikeclark7026 this upcoming season will be his 3rd year. Per the cba, any player can renegotiate after his 3rd year. 1st things 1st talks out of their ass regularly, some of the laziest, most biased takes in sports media.

Teams will over pay him, but they ain't giving up a 1st for a guy who might not be good if he is the only option.
