That's how I see it playing out. No one wants to make the first move though. I just hope it does not drag on much longer but when have we come to terms with a star player this soon? It just does not happen. I think whomever signs second between ARSB and Aiyuk will get more. I think that one is all about timing. I do think CeeDee gets about 30 and outclasses them both and then JJ sets the market. I think this goes as a typical 49ers contract extension does. I found it interesting that Lynch said he was fine playing Aiyuk on the option though. That kind of seemed like a shot fired, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder they are pushing flag football leagues! That's the development league! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_DeBerg_Fan_420 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 The hip tackle rule is unenforceable. It is basically banning tackles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ftn49 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Unfortunately (IMO) this is the direction the sport is going. I became a niners fan when I was 5 years old and have been one for going on almost 40 years. At some point you just have to realize the sport isn't for you anymore I think. Use college football to get your fix until they change that too, move onto hockey from there. Though they are trying to change that too. I don't mind it as much in hockey for whatever reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mind it when I thought it was just going to be the Jimmie Ward tackle on Pollard. From behind, grabbing hips and dropping is going to cause some serious injuries because there is no way to really avoid crushing the ball carriers feet. I didn't know that they were going to do the side hip as well. When doing it from the hip, it's not a guarantee that the feet are going to get caught up, so i thought they would leave that alone. That's going to be super hard to officiate and its going to lead to some really, really subjective calls. The NFL is already saying they get one of those a game, which is 300 hip tackles a year nearly. When you add subjective calls that are just wrong, that's going to be not fun. I Think in the beginning of the season, its going to be a really rough go while the refs figure this out. I do think it'll iron itself out in terms of penalties being called (at least I hope), because games that feature 10+ penalties a side is just not a fun watch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinerNation21 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 I actually like the new kickoff rules. Feels like they can get pretty creative and there's less worry about putting someone like Deebo back there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a reset of sorts. The draft this year is so very crucial to keeping our window open. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeds comments today about Brock's contract and Lynch's comments about aiyuk playing on the 5th year option doesn't exactly inspire confidence they will get a deal done quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Arik felt really disrespected by the 49ers offer, even though he was MIA for a ton of games these last two seasons. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamq Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Yeah sorry AA but you get paid for future production/ availability, not because you've been somewhere for 9 years.. it sucks to see him go but you can't keep everyone 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. What is interesting? Armstead has every right to feel that way and the Niners have/had every right to ask for a pay cut. Looks like he is saying the Niners were willing to keep him at 7M for 2024 and he ended up testing the market and got double that. So good for Armstead and I like the moves the FO made to get cheaper, more durable players in free agency. Win/win for both parties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
