TOPICS TO DRIVE—


1- 49ERS——

-BOTH SIDES BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE—— 

*NO TEAMS WANTED TO TRADE THIS LATE, 
*49ERS HAD MADE A 30+ OFFER WHICH WAS FAIR TO BOTH SIDES 
*AIYUK HAD NO WHERE TO GO AND WAS GOING TO START RACKING UP FINES AND HE DIDNT HAVE THE CASH TO WITHSTAND THEM 



CREDIT CARD BILL WILL START TO BE DUE NEXT SEASON — BUT FOR NOW WHEN TRENT GETS IN ALL GOOD—- HAVE TO WIN THIS SEASON

A- AIYUK SAGA IS OVER…..

THE DEAL: 4-120M - 30M PER YEAR —- 76M GURANTEED? 









-THE GOOD : AIYUK GOT DONE, THE NOT AS GOOD —- WHO DOD THEY LOSE BECAUSE OF THIS DEAL? 
*MY GUESS THEY GET DEMO DONE, LOSE WARD. 

-IS IT RIGHT TO SPEND THIS MUCH AT A POSITION WHERE YOU CAN FIND WR TALENT EVERY YEAR? 

-PERSALL WILL DECIDE IF THEY CAN KEEP DEEBO LONG TERM……

-RIGHT SHORT TERM MOVE, WE’LL SEE LONG TERM. 


HOW CLOSE WAS HE TO BEING TRADED?

⁦‪@DMRussini‬⁩
The 49ers only were willing to trade Brandon Aiyuk if they could get a top-flight WR to replace him. They offered a third-round pick to Denver for Courtland Sutton, and then would’ve dealt Aiyuk to the Steelers, but the Broncos declined the offer. 

So, he stays in SF.

B- TRENT IS NEXT: SOUND DUGS IN BUT THEY HAVE TO HAVE TRENT VS. JETS ON OPENING NIGHT—- 10 DAYS AWAY…. TRENT WATCH NOW….



C- ON THE FIELD….. ARE THE 49ERS THE FAVORITE IN THE NFC? — WHO ARE THE BIGGEST CHALLENEGERS THIS YEAR? 

(MY ORDER) 


1- LIONS— HAD THE 49ERS BEAT AND ADDED SECONDARY HELP, GOFF DOESNT HAVE TO PLAY OUTISDE MUCH, EVERYTHING MIGHT GO THROUGH DETROIT. 
2- EAGLES—-LIKE THIER DRAFT AND THEIR OFF-SEASON. 
3- RAMS — 2 REALLY GOOD DRAFTS IN A ROW, STAFFORD BACK HEALTHY. 
4- PACKERS: LET’S SEE JORDAN LOVE DO IT FOR A FULL SEASON. 
5- COWBOYS - REGULÄR SEASON SOLID, POST SEASON NOT SO MUCH. 

SLEEPERS: 
-FALCONS WITH COUSINS 
BEARS NEED ONE MORE SEASON
TAMPA SOLID LAST SEASON
SEAHAWKS - HOW MUCH BETTER WILL DEFENSE BE UNDER MCDONALD? LIKELY A YEAR AWAY. 




D- HAVENT TALKED BROCK A LOT — HOW MUCH BETTER IS HE GOING TO BE? I THINK HES THE KEY TO THE SEASON……



TIERS…..


-BROCK JUMPS UP 13 SPOTS…. MOST IN NFL…..
-EXPLAIN WHAT IT IS AND ISNT 


The 2024 QB Tiers results are here, complete with commentary from the 50 NFL coaches and executives who were granted anonymity to share candid evaluations. The panel consisted of seven general managers, eight head coaches, 12 coordinators, 12 executives, eight assistant coaches and three involved in coaching/analytics.



Each voter placed 30 veteran quarterbacks into five tiers, from best (Tier 1) to worst (Tier 5). Quarterbacks were then ranked by average vote and placed into tiers based on vote distribution, beginning with Mahomes, whose 1.00 average vote reflected his status as the only unanimous Tier 1 selection. No QBs landed in Tier 5, although some received Tier 5 votes. The survey excludes rookies because voters have not seen them play in the NFL.



TIER 1: 
MAHOMES
BURROW
ALLEN 

TIER 2: 

JACKSON
5T: HERBERT, STAFFORD
7- RODGERS
8 STROUD
9 DAK 
10 GOFF 
11  HURTS 
12 BROCK 




https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5715508/2024/08/26/nfl-qb-rankings-2024-patrick-mahomes/?source=user_shared_articleNFL Quarterback Tiers 2024: Only 2 join Mahomes in Tier 1; Rodgers, Herbert drop out 


(12) 

Purdy rose 13 spots from 2023, tying Jordan Love for the largest jump from last year. His 2.32 average vote is the best for a 49ers quarterback in Tiers history (Colin Kaepernick, 2.50 in 2014).

“When they have had to move the ball via dropback pass, that has been the difference between him and Jimmy (Garoppolo),” a head coach said. “Purdy has done it, and he’s done it in moments where he had to pull the ball down against Detroit and go get a first down with his legs. He has an innate feel. He has proven even when it’s not going well, he’s a quarter away from clicking in, and you’d better have a lead when he does.”

Rough games against Baltimore and Cleveland were exceptions.

“The system really helps, but he maximizes it,” a defensive coordinator said. “I’m not saying he is Kurt Warner, but he reminds me of that type of body. Not big, not a great arm, but he’s accurate, he knows when to get rid of the ball, he’s sharp, he’s a little bit better athlete than you think.”

Warner had even better talent around him while with the Rams.

“I honestly could debate calling Brock a 1,” an offensive play caller said. “He is really underrated. Kyle Shanahan deserves a ton of credit, but there still has to be somebody at the switch.”

The 16 voters placing Purdy in Tier 3 gave more credit to Shanahan and a strong supporting cast.

“I would slide him to the top of 3,” an assistant GM said. “I’m not sold that it is a universal skill set for varying systems. But for their system and their offense, they greatly capitalize on what his abilities are. That is a credit to the coaching staff.”

C- JEFF PASSAN HAS EARLY FA LOOK ——   GOAL:  BE MORE LIKE BREWERS AND DBACKS —- BREWWRS LAST NIGHT - STEAL A HR FROM CF, STEALING BASES — ATHLETES — IN LF, CF, RF, 2B, SS …. 


ME: RESIGN CHAPMAN AND SNELL, GOT GET ADAMES OF HA SONG KIM…….

Biggest redemption opportunity: Blake Snell and Matt Chapman

After a mess of a winter that saw both flail in the market for months and sign contracts well below expectation, Snell and Chapman will almost certainly opt out of those deals and chase the sorts they wanted their first time in free agency.

Over his past nine starts, Snell has allowed a 1.30 ERA, struck out 75 in 55⅓ innings and limited hitters to a .111/.208/.161 line. In other words, the reigning NL Cy Young winner is turning entire major league lineups into the equivalent of pitchers trying to hit. Further, after never having thrown even eight innings in a start, Snell went nine against Cincinnati earlier this month -- and didn't allow a hit.

Chapman, in the meantime, is more or less the same player he has always been: good offensively and spectacular defensively at third base. Why that didn't translate into a better contract last year remains curious considering the number of teams that could really use a third baseman: the Seattle MarinersToronto Blue Jays, Washington Nationals, Kansas City Royals and New York Yankees. They should all at least be making calls this winter, and that's not even counting the San Francisco Giants, who could lose Chapman, or the Houston Astros, who have their own question this winter at third base.
