that would love to pair up Aiyuk, Nabers and Wan'dale with Hyatt's potential. I doubt the Giants would be able to afford the asking price but it'd be another transformation of the offense in the right direction.
like the Steelers and Commanders are the two likely landing spots if he does get traded. He's great, but if we're going to be any good we need our draft picks to play well and we have 3 high ones at receiver plus Slayton.

Commies have McLaurin and recently spent a 1st on Dotson. Pittsburgh does make sense as Wilson did have success with Lockett in Seattle. I could see Tampa having interest as Mike Evans isn't getting any younger and Godwin has had durability issues.
Slayton would have to be part of the deal in my opinion

Bills make the most sense to me.
the 7th leading receiver in yards with 30-65 fewer targets

dont think they have the $ for it. with all their purging this year, they are still on pace to be over the cap in 2025 and eventually they are going to have to give allen a raise.
that's why schoen and morgan were joking around with beane that he doesnt even have the money to pay a top 10 pick.
For a guy that is a solid No. 2 receiver. He doesn’t tilt the field for the Niners and he’s not a guy you trade big time assets for IMO.
To each their own but your stance makes it sound like you don’t watch the games.
There’s about 5-10 true No. I receivers in football. He isn’t one of them. He benefits from playing with McCaffrey, Kittles, and Deebo.
Any player playing with good players benefits by those around him. And he was good before CMC got there. But he’s absolutely a #1 WR, all the metrics along with the eye test prove it.
Jefferson, Hill, Chase, Lamb, Brown are probably the only established WRs I take over him definitively. There are definitely not 9 or 10 better WRs.

I think some of that is true, but Aiyuk was a first round draft choice. It's not like San Fran found him on day three. He's got plus skills in a lot of phases.
If I'm the Shanahan, I would move off Deebo before Aiyuk. Deebo is two years older, and he plays the game at a very physical level that would suggest wear and tear will accelerate.

Yeah, you may be right. Those contracts for Miller and Oliver have a significant impact on the cap.
in 2024 (moreso than most other teams). Especially while they have Purdy at the league min. Maybe they would take draft picks only if the situation can't be resolved, but any trade offer probably has to include at least some type of player that can help them this year.
He's basically Amani Toomer circa 2000-2003. Beast is a little much. When I think of beats at WR I think Beckham 2015. Jamar Chase. Randy Moss. Torry Holt. Aiyuk isn't that guy.

nothing is ever totally impossible, but that's close with what they are already paying devonta smith/ajb. hard to envision spending close to 1/3 of the cap on 3 WRs no matter how much they borrow from future seasons.

Moore? Evans? Please.But regardless, listening 10 guys you take over him isn’t anywhere in the stratosphere of indicating he’s a “#2” receiver. He’d instantly be the best receiver on over half the teams in the league. That’s not #2 material if you ask me
Per CD lamb (giving his top 5 in the game mentions him . Said he is uncoverable and has moves that are super. I think people are sleeping on him and I wouldn’t be surprised if he is our leading receiver this year.

The first 7 guys are legit No. 1 NFL receivers. Just because there’s 32 teams doesn’t mean there’s 32 No. 1 receivers. And Evans is a Hall of Fame WR. He’s been a legit #1 for a long time, he’s just older now and past his prime. Still a solid player that Aiyuk is comparable to.
Has had 1000 yards in of 4 out of the last 5 seasons, playing with terrible QBs in Carolina and Chicago. He has just as much an argument being a No. 1 as Aiyuk does.
when you are the #1 and getting 9/10 targets a game, you are going to get 1000 yards. I like Moore, but Aiyuk simply does more with less volume and there’s nothing to suggest he wouldn’t be putting up top 5 production with an increase in targets, even a moderate one. Again, he had 105 targets, and he made them count.
What do you think Aiyuk posts with 50 more targets? And that would still put him on the lower end of what the top WRs in the league see each season. He was 36th in targets last season, 76 less than Lamb but finished 7th in yards behind Moore who played 1 more game.
“Solid” is such an inaccurate assessment of Aiyuks ability and results.

Aiyuk hasn't been much of YAC guy, FWIW. I'm not sure how to quite interpret that, but he's been out of the top 30 back-to-back years.
but he’s YAC is similar to Lambs (actually better on a per catch basis), so I’m not sure how much it matters. Aiyuk also ran deeper routes this past season, almost 14 air yards per target. Give him Lambs targets and I think you see very similar production.
Doubt it post draft after getting Nabers. We’d have to give up a big pick + and I think that’s reserved for a QB should things not work out this year.
I wouldn't even offer that, considering what he'll cost.
This would be like the Eagles adding Brown and Smith.
Lol what? Purdy is trash, aiyuk was open so many times. Aiyuk is a top 10 wide receiver
Commies have McLaurin and recently spent a 1st on Dotson. Pittsburgh does make sense as Wilson did have success with Lockett in Seattle. I could see Tampa having interest as Mike Evans isn't getting any younger and Godwin has had durability issues.
I rather spend money elsewhere right now and run the WR core we have now.

Did you write Slayton's name by accident?
Patriots or Arizona (ton of cap this/next season)
Did you write Slayton's name by accident?
I was contemplating Nabers, but figured upping the ante and going with Slayton would be more fair.

2 good guesses. both were pretty widely rumored as possibilities around draft.

Yea ill see your "lol what" and raise you a WTF are you talking about. Purdy is anything but trash. Watch the guy play.

Why don’t you run the numbers on him getting #1 target share. He’s pretty much a top 10 WR with only 6 targets a game, that’s absurd.
He's a very good player, and will get rewarded handsomely.
