Where will Brandon Aiyuk end up?

Over the course of the past few days it sure seemed like the 49ers were going to send Brandon Aiyuk to greener pastures as there are tough decisions ahead for the team. It got as far as learning that the Patriots and Browns had frameworks for trades in place for the star wide receiver. The added element to this whole story is that the team trading for Aiyuk needs to give him a new contract, one worthy of top tier talent at the position. His contract and love for a certain head coach is where this story has gotten very interesting...

Here's where the involved teams seem to stand at this point in their pursuit of Brandon Aiyuk:

Pittsburgh Steelers - The latest team to join the fray have something going for them, Aiyuk wants to play there. Aiyuk respects Mike Tomlin, wants to play for him and as some have pointed out looks a little like coach Tomlin. The problem is, the Steelers don't necessarily have a trade package that the 49ers want. The Steelers will have to blow the 49ers away with picks as they only have Pickens to offer and never would.

Cleveland Browns - The Browns had a trade in place with the 49ers as reported just a couple of days ago. They have a wide receiver that seemingly the 49ers would want in Amari Cooper who is a very talented player, expendable with the addition of Jerry Jeudy in Cleveland. The problem is, they can't work out a deal with Aiyuk because he reportedly doesn't want to play there.

New England Patriots - The Patriots like the Browns had a trade in place with the 49ers, they have pursued Aiyuk before as well. The Patriots were willing to send Kendrick Bourne back in a trade package, Bourne would have returned to the team that drafted him. The problem is, Brandon Aiyuk doesn't want to play there despite the Patriots willing to pay him as a top 5 receiver in the game. The Patriots have reportedly moved on from Aiyuk.

The Conclusion, it sure seems like Brandon Aiyuk has pinned the 49ers into a corner where they have to make an interesting decision. They could take a potentially lesser deal from the Steelers just to get the distraction of the Aiyuk contract situation out of their building or find a way to get more out of the Steelers and make everyone happy...maybe. My conspiracy thought is that this whole thing was nothing but the Aiyuk camp trying to drive up the cost from the 49ers and he ends up with a new deal to stay with the 49ers, just saying.

Tough week to be a niners fan

[jemilystoothbrush]

Quite the emotional week for niner fans from BA resigning and Ricky getting shot to getting Trent and CMC back just in time take a deep breath faithful we have made it

[thefauxsport]

I mean it’s incredibly fucked up throwing a party knowing that one of your players is in critical condition but who are we to judge

I suppose. Maybe we were too harsh on them considering their coach was out partying too.

And by all accounts it sounds like he’ll be okay.

Here are two photos from the party last night. I’m sure more will appear.

The San Francisco 49ers

...and how their 2024-2025 season could go 1 of 2 ways:

My brain not being able to decide on many things in life is both a blessing and a curse. Sometimes, it keeps from making firm decisions in my life, but other times it helps me see the two sides of a coin. Whether it's for the purpose of being compassionate and/or understanding, or simply because I want to have hope that not all is lost. This time around, it's the latter.

After the awful loss against the Kansas City Chiefs last Sunday, and the awful trail of bodies (losses) this San Francisco 49ers team have been leaving since the beginning of the season, it is safe to say that many fans are losing hope in this team on all sides of the ball, coaching included. Week after week we see comments like: “Brock Purdy is a bust”, “Fire Kyle Shanahan”, “Nick Sorensen needs to go”, “the season is over”, and many more.

It seems both the team and the fanbase are falling apart before our very eyes. The team has seemingly lost their strength and passion for the game. Every week there is a new problem and the injuries keep on piling up. Some blame it on Christian McCaffrey and Dre Greenlaw's absence, while others say Kyle Shanahan is no longer a genius. Some insist that there needs to be a rebuild, while others think that the team has everything they need, but they don't know how to work with it anymore.

I believe it is safe to say, this 2024-2025 season has not been looking pretty so far. But is the season really over for this San Francisco team? I'm not sure it is... but I'm not sure it isn't either. To me, it seems like this season could go 1 of 2 ways.

1. The boys will get it together by bye week, like they've done for the past few years. They will make the most of the break and will come back stronger. This team is really good, and although they are missing some key players, including 5 Pro-Bowlers, the team is still good enough to win more games.

2. It will be another awful Super Bowl hangover, just like 2020, but worse. Back in 2020-2021 season, the team kept losing important players to all type of injuries: season-ending, day-to-day; players would be gone for months or several weeks. The team tried their best to keep it together, and you could see the exhaustion in their faces, especially Shanahan's, but to no avail, they couldn't make it. The injuries were too much to deal with.

From the very beginning, there have been fans who believe this season will also be like that one. Others believe that the injuries have not been as impactful as they were a few years ago. However, with the recent and devastating Brandon Aiyuk news, the Deebo Samuel illness, the uncertainty with Jauan Jennings and all the other players that we know are severely injured, it's getting harder to believe that the San Francisco 49ers will go places.

My second theory is that the team will not get it together after bye week, and this will keep on being a very painful season to watch. At first, it might seem like they're gonna make it, and then they will give an awful performance the next week, and it will turn into a “will they, won't they” type of dynamic, like we've been seeing so far. I truly hope this isn't the case, but I'm prepared for it to be that way, just like I'm prepared for them to come back stronger after the break.

It seems only time will tell, and although it's frustrating to think about the future of this team right now, the truth is that all that is left to do for us as fans is wait, and try our best to enjoy every week.

Let's fricking go! FTTB❤️‍🩹
