Off-Season Nonsense

Make It Stop

The off-season can’t end soon enough. For the last few months there has been a bunch of nothing news and opinions which mostly boil down to:

  1. OMG Brandon Ayiyuk is not at OTA’s!
  2. He might hold out!
  3. Do we trade him? Do we trade Deebo?

The video above is a discussion with Larry and Bruce (who I like very much) around the possibility of trading BA for Wirfs in Tampa, which is stupid because there is no way Tampa parts with Wirfs for a WR a pick and another player. Tackles are hard to come by - Wirfs is one of the best - it’s not happening so let’s just stop. The conversation then devolves into whether Deebo is worth the money and might be the real problem with our inability to extend Aiyuk.

To me this is proof there is nothing to talk about in 49er land - just the same topics repackaged. Well that and shitty analysis from OTA’s too.

I can’t listen to it anymore. I’ve got a hot take for you:

Brandon Aiyuk may or may not be on the 49ers this upcoming season. Take it to the bank.

Everything else is speculation and a waste of time. NFL content makers turning into gossip peddlers. It’s annoying at this point and no wonder NFL executives have a prickly relationship with the media.
