[@DoobieKeebler]

​@@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.

[@clintonchico9547]

The niners can win without B.A. Deebo has been a lynch pin to the whole team.

[@terrythegnome2408]

the idea that Ayuik could just go to another team and put up the same numbers is crazy. If he doesn't have a great coach, a great qb, and tons of other players to take pressure off of him he's not gonna continue at the same rate. If he goes to the Commanders it would be a rude awakening. "Imagine what he could do." Imagine him on a team with no running threat, or where the scheme is bad or his qb sucks.

If you check his numbers out he didn't do well against top defences. In the Post season, he only caught 9 of 20 targets. He couldn't get open except when they schemed him against the safety in the Super Bowl. And if he hadn't accidentally caught a pass off the Detroit Lions helmet, he would have had 99 yds on 8 catches off 20 targets in the 3 postseason games... 🤷‍♂️

[@terrythegnome2408]

in particular press man coverage has given him fits.

[@maskedman5657]

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)

[@keithprater2011]

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

[@RipliWitani]

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

@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.

[@therealgoat98]

Mike florio, the guy who said Tom Brady was coming to the 49ers.

[@Wtf_Going_On]

Ayuik is a great number 2 WR...in the 9ers offense he is probably the 5th option when all is healthy (C.Mac, Deebo, CMac the WR, Deebo the RB then Ayuik) and he gets a lot of favorable coverages due to teams not keying him

[@RipliWitani]

Aiyuk is good but I'm not sure how he would be if he is the only option. Guy benefits so much from the talent around him. I think he is a 1b type of guy, who will get overpaid and slightly underperform. Having an elite RB truly opens up the WR game. I remember the affect Arian Foster had on Andre Johnson. Dre was open 24/7

[@Thomas-dk6uq]

The 49ers don't need to do anything. So they won't. Zero chance they trade either this season. If they were going to it would have been before the draft. Picks do nothing right now.

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.

[@FreeTendiesFantasy]

@@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

[@PureMagma]

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.

[@cittaaukoto_japan9926]

Samuals is great when he touches the ball but tends to slack off when the play is not going to him. On the other hand, Aiyuk and Purdy are incredibly in sinc almost every time they connect. That’s why Aiyuk’s average yards per target are so high. I agree with Pat that the 49er’s are trying to keep both for one more season but the second best option is to trade Samuals and pay Aiyuk.

[@lisaac9477]

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

[@Obscuredinsight]

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.

[@str8nashtygaming466]

Unless a team is willing to step in and alleviate the 20 million dollar cap hit Deebo will have on SF (which will only drive down the value of the pick) then he isn't leaving. Aiyuk on the other hand, would return far more value. 9ers have a stacked roster, full of the highest paid at their respective positions. Price of success.

Get rid of Deebo. Hes always pulling his Hamstring. Pay Aiyuk, and mold R. Pearsal into the receiver you believe he can be.

[@IanRobinson2yt]

I would rather we sell Aiyuk and keep Deebo. Deebo wants to be here and isn't a drama queen. Use the money off Aiyuk to bring in his replacement.

[@89ty3]

Deebo did the same thing lol he wants to be here because we paid him just like Aiyuk would be

[@tejshdesai5031]

I don’t take anything this mf Florio says seriously😂

[@brandong42091]

why would they keep aiyuk and trade deebo ? we saw what that team looks like without deebo they NEED him and CMAC

[@Notorious-sz1vr]

As a cowboys fan.. i hope niners do the worst option 😂

[@mrh6414]

Why would the 49ers trade Samuel if under contract?

[@tr0llmaster440]

As much as I love deebo he’s just too injury prone and he’s not a pure WR and with Purdy now Kyle is evolving the offense to a more shotgun pass offense.

[@zanehubbard]

Ravens should go get Deebo

[@C.A.D.]

😂😂 they will both be playing there

[@JustSomeGuy009]

Market 35m? 😂🤣😂🤣

[@veejay120793]

You guys need to remember Aiyuk had Jimmy g who doesn’t throw past 20 yards.

[@elericrivera2010]

I honestly think Aiyuk is doing it wrong, I think he has a down year and Deebo and Kittle will show up this season. Purdy loves Kittle and Kittle was playing hurt last season plus tight ends go for 18 million compared to 35 million to receivers. BA deserves his money but not with the 49ers

[@lisaac9477]

BA does not deserve top tier WR money. He's not AJ Brown or Justin Jefferson.

[@danieljordan9004]

You have to remember Deebo was basically their running back for 2 years and is already having injury issues. Essentially a 29 year old receiver in a 31 year old running backs body and 2 years past his prime. Even his receptions are balls caught around the line of scrimmage taking multiple hits from linebackers and lineman. Aiyuk on the other hand is entering his prime and probably will be close to it for the next 5 years. He barely even gets tackled, he’s usually running out of bounds or scoring. I also don’t think it will be Deebo and Kittle, It will be Deebo and McCaffrey. Let’s face it, a high paid older running back is a luxury. They also coincidentally drafted a RB and WR this year. I also disagree with Trent Williams leaving. He’s their favorite player and is still the best player maybe second to Mahomes is the league. They’ll keep him as long as they can.

[@RipliWitani]

SF is close to being the 2016-2022 seahawks. Mediocre with tons of name recognition. SF needs to win now, or gut the team an go for Arch Manning. No way Purdy is worth 50M

[@lisaac9477]

@@RipliWitani Yeah, he's only been the most efficient NFL QB ever in their first two years.

[@DollaBillz215]

I rather Keep Deebo if that's the case

[@Notorious-sz1vr]

As a cowboys fan, this is hilarious 😂 love the downfall! If they really had the guy at the qb position this would never happen. This would never happen under Brady nor Mahomes

[@marcanthony2767]

Aiyuk is not a WR1. He's a third option.

[@marinevet13]

5 teams were willing to trade for him and pay him. They were only offering maybe a 4th round pick. That is why he wasn't traded. George Kittle and Deebo are not going anywhere. You know these guys are just talking for ratings. The truth is more boring. Deal will get done for Aiyuk. Next year Brock will get paid. All this is because it is the down time in the NFL. Media creating smoke just to get views.
