The interminable Brandon Aiyuk contract talks are a step away according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. He reports that Aiyuk wants a change in the fourth and final year of the proposed deal before signing an extension.
contract talks are a step away according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. He reports that Aiyuk wants a change in the fourth and final year of the proposed deal before signing an extension.Garafolo doesn’t have the specifics on what Aiyuk is demanding. A guarantee in the fourth and final year of the deal doesn’t happen across the league. That would be unprecedented and rejected.
So the game of chicken continues. The Niners have caved on nearly every contract demand, but is this last one a bridge too far? We’ll see if a compromise is possible that finally ends this. Nothing. The annual strategy of start with a lowball offer bordering on the ridiculous and then cave last minute does not appear to carry any value for the Niners. All it does is upset the player and annoy the fanbase. So why keep doing it? No clue.
I cut it into thirds. Williams doesn’t want to go to camp. He wants his money guaranteed going forward. His contract is no longer in the top five of NFL tackles. Kyle Shanahan says the team can succeed with Jaylon Moore starting at left tackle in the opener. Williams knows that isn’t true, more to the point, so does Shanahan. The history is clear, when Williams sits the Niners lose.
