VonKarman Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 If we wanna see Savage in the slot we need to trade for Justin Reid. We can probably get him for a 6th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R T Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 This is so precious. For all the people who have been living with the hate of the Packers for not finding a way to draft Aiyuk instead of Love. This is from Niners Wire and possible players to be traded. His sophomore campaign has seen him relegated to the bottom of the 49ers’ list of pass-catching options. Aiyuk’s 16 targets through six games tied him for fourth on the team with fullback Kyle Juszczyk. He’s turned those targets into nine catches for 96 yards and a touchdown. He’s an extremely talented player, but head coach Kyle Shanahan and offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel don’t seem to have much use for him. A team willing to part with a late Day 2 or early Day 3 draft pick might be getting a star for a great price, while the 49ers get a pick back for a player they’ve buried in their offense. – Kyle Madson, Niners Wire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegas492 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 From what I heard regarding Aiyuk, he missed camp. Not sure why. But he's behind, and hasn't worked all that hard to get up to speed. If all it would take is a late round pick for him, I'm making that move in a heartbeat. He's got a lot more upside than our bottom of the roster WR's right now.

Last year, with Deebo Samuel out, Aiyuk performed extremely well as a rookie. Given Deebo's return, below par quarterback play, and Aiyuk's missed pre-season reps, he's not really a factor this year. If he could be had for a middle-round pick, you jump. Not sure SF if the reports are true that SF wants to move him though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let alone to the Packers... Unless of course Shanny wants to package him with a gift basket, flowers and hallmark sorry card to ML for trying to sweep in and steal his QB... That being said, if we add a piece, I really hope it's on the defensive side of the ball again. I really want to keep seeing that unit improve and love some of the depth we could have when we get healthy. Of course I will accept any addition, I just think the offense will be fine.

Maybe?, but not worth a draft pick. If he was cut, I'd look at him in a Amari Rodgers type role. Is he an upgrade??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit Pack Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Not sure it has been mentioned but lets get another Texan in the door with Brandin Cooks, cheap for this season with a salary of $2.5m. For an 'all in' one year rental, could be a good move. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For an 'all in' one year rental, could be a good move. He's been talked about. He actually only costs $1.7m for the rest of the season. Only downside is that you wouldn't get any comp for him next year because he's under contract and we undoubtedly would have to cut him because he's owed about $12m (all non-guaranteed). So if the draft comp is right, you could get him for the rest of this year very cheap. He's been a stud in Houston on a very bad team, with a very bad QB.

ifeelasleep Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 cooks is in that category with robert woods and sanders, probably the best of the bunch gets no plaudits but has always produced, id love him here. Thought about him after the season didnt know he was availible now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFLGURU Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) There could be a spot for Cooks if used right. Another guy to take the top off a defense with MVS, but I wouldn't expect much as far as flow. If he knew his role and was OK with it, might be a decent pickup. You could do a lot with MVS out wide, Cooks on the other side and Adams in the slot, or any other combo you could work with. He would have to understand he's not getting the ball a lot and is primarily used to take a safety with him in the situations when he's in there. Its unlikely but it might work for them. Not sure contract wise how that would play with their finances and only if Im giving up next to nothing to get him.

incognito_man Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I would definitely give a 6th for Cooks. Without hesitation. Probably a 5th, too. But that's like trading Royce Newman for Cooks. Would anyone do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him an offseason of NFL conditioning and he may prove to be a real gem. Of course, not all 5th round picks are equal. There are many examples where we whiffed on our 5th round pick, which is not unusual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
