The trade market for WR Brandon Aiyuk got red hot a couple weeks ago with new reports surfacing by the hour on which teams were making the latest offer to the San Francisco 49ers. The three most credibly reported leads were the Cleveland Browns, New England Patriots, and Pittsburgh Steelers. That trade market seems to have been narrowed down to just one team – the Steelers.
That simplifies things for the 49ers in their negotiations. They just have to beat the Steelers’ offer for Aiyuk and satisfy his contract demands without the presence of several other offers to complicate things.
