    they don't think he worth 30M a year and don't think he is top 10 receiver but they want your trade package to be on that level. Got it
  • @coilbiohazard
    Nobody is holding the team up other than the front office. They fully control his contract. The 49ers have a duty to make the team better, that Cleveland trade would make them better and they blew it because they need Aiyuk more. They should have sent him in a heartbeat, instead the 49ers look unreasonable trying to make Aiyuk look any way in their quest to not look like they really really want Aiyuk.
  • @swacent7855
    I don't want him on this team anymore... Kyle should trade him for a box of crunch and munch popcorn
  • @viffer94
    49ers had trades in place with both Cleveland and New England and Aiyuk said no. Patriots reportedly offered him $30 million. WTH does he want?
  • 49ers knew that Brandon Aiyuk would be unsatisfied but thought he would cave. Should have traded him BEFORE this year's draft. 49ers only have themselves to blame.
  • @sdad6378
    Steeler fan here...if he ends up with Pitt, the 9ers will have to pay for half of 30 mil at least. Steelers never overpay. Even Bens contracts werent back breaking.
  • @Bassball313
    Is this PFT or Unbuttoned? 😂 Glad the boys are back.
  • @fflanigan
    I can't wrap my head around why the Steelers are even interested. They have a better wr that they need to pay soon. Are they really going to pay 2 wrs 30 mil/yr?
  • Steelers dont have the assets to make the trade happen. So what exactly are we even talking about anymore?!
  • @girlhunter2102
    Dude is under contract. 49ers don’t have to anything. If he doesn’t want to play he can sit out the whole season then see what teams will pay him after his deal expires.
  • @RunBayou
    I'm just tired of hearing about it Shit or get off the pot
  • 49ers are stubborn and won’t take a trade for 75 cents on the dollar. (ie Jimmy G 2 years ago)
  • They’re holding him hostage. He doesn’t want to go to a team in a full rebuild just for the money either.
  • @robf1648
    Start the fines and push for the trade to Cleveland or let him sit out a year. Tag him next year and see where that goes. Hopefully some of these younger guys step up.
  • @zmvpainting
    This isn't the NBA, no player should be able to hold a team hostage in any way.
  • Something that should have been Taking care of before it got to this point
  • @fiedler230
    BA is so hated even if he comes back at this point....
  • @perryellis1423
    Mike florio makes the most sense. 49ers have trade Brandon to the Steelers and get maybe a 3rd and a 5th and then trade for whatever else they need from another team
