San Francisco’s offer hasn’t been good enough, but the two sides are still trying to get a deal done. Plus more on Trevor Lawrence’s extension and Kyler Murray’s offseason.
• There’s a lot of noise out there about the San Francisco 49ers’ position on receiver Brandon Aiyuk, and the possibility that things are devolving to the point where the second-team All-Pro could be traded.Last week, my buddy Mike Silver reported that the Niners are offering around $26 million per year, which, understandably, isn’t quite good enough, but does reflect how badly San Francisco wants to lock him in as the team’s long-term No. 1 receiver.
One difference in the situations involving Tua Tagovailoa, Jordan Love and Dak Prescott is that each of those guys only has a year left on their deal. Which makes it more difficult to manage the numbers for a team, and can also make a player more resolute in his position, since he waited an extra year to go to the table.that I thought was interesting—Robert Saleh found real value in the team’s stakes-less season finale in Foxborough.
“It’s the truth,” Saleh says. “I forget what New England’s win streak was at the time. I think it was like 17 games or whatever the heck it was. New England had that big win streak on us, and we kind of had an idea that it was going to be their last game as a regime. Our guys attacked it.
Interestingly enough, former Las Vegas Raiders and Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels was being considered for a hybrid front office-coaching role had Belichick landed with the Atlanta Falcons, and much of Houston Texans GM Nick Caserio’s background, before he led New England’s personnel department, was in coaching.
