That would be awesome. If Ballard tried hard to trade up for a WR I would think he would be aggressive in going after Aiyuk.

Absolutely. He’s a difference maker.

Dejean all the way.

Mike Lombardi on the McAfee show today he thinks they would prefer to trade Deebo. He would the most expensive to acquire but he is really a rb playing wr. Reportedly they want a second and third for Deebo. Aiyuk plays the outside very effectively. Deebo is an inside receiver according to him. He thinks they will prefer to keep Aiyuk.

I am on board with it being the Colts.

So he is not going to play this year without a new contract? Even in SF?

For sure but his cap hit is 28m. That’s a big problem for most teams at this stage. That’s why the 4th rd offers I would think. Would probably need another extension. For me Aiyuk is the perfect player for us given all the circumstances.

Yes they can. Aiyuk will play under the fifth year option this year with the 49er’s. That’s 14.2m. They can’t afford and don’t want to give him an extension this year. Next year they have Purdys extension. We don’t have to give him an extension either this year. So fitting under the cap is not a problem. Sure he wants an extension but that’s what 5th year options are for. So hopefully Ballard tries for him.

We are not paying a quarterback who cares. We can afford it.

Not really. People way over value what it would cost in these types of trades.

I also think we will be trading up somwhere during the draft tomorrow.

Now that the Jags drafted Thomas I think we are the prime team to trade for Aiyuk tomorrow. The receivers left won’t make a big impact for the Colts as a rookie this year. Trading for Aiyuk would supplant Pierce as our starter. I think we are trading for Aiyuk tomorrow.

So much for reading to much into visits.

The 1st rd is almost over. Maybe Buffalo. I don’t see a team trading next years first. I think a day two pick. We can give them Kwity or Dayo now to include a player.

I would move up and take him for FS.

Trade Paye and a pick for Aiyuk.

I think that has a great chance of happening. I’m hoping he goes after Aiyuk for AR. Draft pick wise he wouldn’t be expensive. The connection is there with Lynch so I think it could happen. Daniel Jeremiah thought we were one of two teams that made sense to him. We will see.

I said it in the other thread I thought we would draft defense tonight. I thought Turner. Wrong player. And I thought we would trade for Aiyuk on Friday. I still think it’s going to happen. Extending Buckner was for cap flexibility. I think he gets AR a weapon.

Ballard finally gets his edge rusher. Should be an impact player for us. Our new DL coach is salivating. Ballard told us he likes his corners.

Will Ballard finally gets his edge rusher?

Probably

Turner or Dejean?

Ballard said he would be ecstatic if all of these quarterbacks were taken. That should kill any trade back possibilities.

Everyone is used to this one. Why mess around?

Give up next years 1st and go to 4.
