Blank Stare

I don’t disagree with any of this. My original post was more about being befuddled that he’d even want to go there vs. another team with a more legitimate shot at the ring (he’s been strangely hyping the Steelers this offseason). Keep in mind, he has that opportunity with his current team. Cannot fathom why he’d sign up to take what appears to be a downgrade. If I’m him, I go back to the Niners and say, these other teams that are interested are mid. If you aren’t willing to deal me to a team with a stud QB, then I’ll stay and play with you on my current deal for one more year if you agree not to tag me. Cash in next year on a team of my choosing when they have max $ at the start of free agency to offer.

Yes. And I also remember us kicking their ass in the playoffs. Truth is they were incredibly fortunate to get in and the fact that they made the playoffs last year with Mason Rudolph doesn’t really dispel any of my concerns if I’m Brandon Aiyuk. Not with the Steelers current QB situation. Even though it’s a tad better situation than last year on paper, they aren’t likely to get past the conference heavyweights. I guess their D could get hot for a few games in the playoffs, but I wouldn’t bank on that if I’m Aiyuk.

Yep. And if that’s the case I’m playing one more year for the Niners on my current deal with them agreeing not to tag me. Then hitting the open market at 27 next year in free agency.

I mean…I guess. If you think a washed Russ or sack/turnover prone Fields are the guys to get you there then sure. Can’t just be about money because I’d bet there are plenty of suitors to pay him. I’m not wasting my prime topping out at a wild card or division round playoff game with the black and yellow. I’m demanding to work something out with a team with a top 5 QB if I’m him.

Baffling to me why he has this preference to play for Pittsburgh.

(and yes…I know it’s spelled wrong. Not my gif. 🤷‍♂️)

Anyone else keep hearing that rusty gate sound? Annoying AF.

Don’t even want to know what’s sticking out of his pants.

Damn. Was hoping Browning would beat out Martin for the full time gig. Oh well…have to adjust when injuries strike.

Loving the Von updates! Need him and Milano healthy and producing all year.

What’s Simmons have to do to get a look? Maybe asking for too much $?

Damn. That’s a lot. But honestly, just the going rate these days. Didn’t realize he had as good a statistical season as he did. Good for him. F’n Packers have the magic formula to identifying franchise QBs in the modern era.

I’m getting ahead of myself a tad, but Shakir reminds me of an Amon-Ra St. Brown type. Hopefully, he can put up similar production.

Most importantly - to help Josh. Stef trade part deux. IMO it resets the timeline with a younger, proven player who can come in and be the #1.

Go get ‘em!

Tommy Doyle is a straight warrior of a dude. Will always remember him playing on a torn ACL in that ridiculous Miami heat game. Can’t thank him enough for grinding that out for the team knowing no one was available behind him.

I’d be up for it if they want to try it. Though, I’d almost rather go get Calais Campbell or bring back Jerry Hughes on a one year deal.

No way Rondell Bothroyd is a real person.

Good and bad…cheap Gabe Davis replacement. About the best you’re going to do at this point.

Anyone know how you pronounce UDFA Lovely’s first name? Keni-H. Is it just “Kenny”?
