A forward thinking gm would get Aiyuk. 
 

I would offer Meyers and a 3rd. Meyers is good and probably would shine on 9ers. He’s separates, not expensive, has been a WR1. Aiyuk is a talented WR1. We will have money to get him a new deal, as we are likely to draft a QB in 2025. We could have a Great 1-2 punch like our last great teams has Brown/Rice and Cooper/Crabtree. Or we could flip Tae for a future 1st with an in house WR1. We would be set up nice to go get our QB in 2025 with two first or we could get QB and a young WR with that other first.

I’ve rather have Meyers than Aiyuk

JJ McCarthy said our defense is vanilla on paper and he's looking forward to playing us this week...

Dude is about to get a rookie humbling. No star power (besides Maxx) does not mean vanilla. This was the 2nd Ranked Defense in the NFL Week 9 onwards only behind Baltimore. We totally destroyed Pat Mahomes before his Super Bowl run.

Mighty rich of a rookie making claims like that before his 1st game. He’s gonna get humbled throughout the season

That is not what he said:

Asked what he’s most eager to see in his first NFL game at U.S. Bank Stadium on Saturday afternoon, J.J. McCarthy needed little time to think of the answer.

”Just a vanilla defense, honestly,” he said.

The context being he's been seeing Brian Flores defense in TC which is throwing everything at him as far as different looks, coverages, etc. 

Raider fans are so insecure and will do anything to feel slighted. This is that Mitchell Renz fool taking something out of context for clickbait.

Aiyuk is better than Meyers but Meyers is criminally underrated…. and way cheaper than top tier guys. Meyers is very good.

I agree with this thought, it's because Meyers doesn't have that flashy speed to make the highlight plays. He gets open and moves the chains. I think Aiyuk is better but it's that that huge of a gap. Aiyuk is probably somewhere 15-25 WR1 with potential, and Meyers is a top 5 WR2 so like a top 37 WR. Meyers could thrive in that system too.

Every defense in preseason is vanilla.  We will play cover 2 every single down of defense and blitz 0 times.  We've always played super vanilla.  The preseason is such a sham (waste of time).

Is he a steal? 

Only for a 3rd and 5th round pick and we actually get him to play for us for 3+ years.  That 30M+ per season on top of D. Adams' contract is going to wipe out a huge part of our salary cap.  It would be the perfect time to draft a rookie QB though.

Pretty Rickey mentioned something about Aiyuk’s agent is at our facility. 49ers are ALL IN on the Super Bowl this year, so if they lose Aiyuk, they want a top receiver. 

Imagine if the 49ers gave us a 1st and Aiyuk for Adams, lol. Aiyuk is not on Adams level for 2024, but Aiyuk is gonna be a Top 10 WR for the next 4-5 years. Adams only has one elite year and one good year left IMO. 

Adams would absolutely MURDER on the Niners this season. 1650 yards and like 15 TDs.
