@Kind0fABigDill @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac He has no guaranteed money

@Lipp_024 @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac Aiyuk would never negotiate for less money. That would be idiotic. He'll get cut. Get his guaranteed money. Then sign a 1 year deal.

Spotrac’s Mike Ginnitti’s prediction on the 49ers - Brandon Aiyuk situation: “He gets released on June 2nd, which is terrible by the way. That’s terrible because the 49ers can designate him a post June 1st release right now… They will wait until June and wait until after the draft and make all the other teams make decisions without him being in the fold— including picks. Then they will release him and hope that he probably latches on somewhere at a very, very small contract for 2026. I think there’s a little bit of vindictiveness happening here, but I guess I understand it if things really got that sour.” via: @team980 | @spotrac

@Josh1139329977 @BRoss400 @AryePulliNFL @micon0224 @SleeperCFB They don't have any picks after the 4th round.

@BRoss400 @AryePulliNFL @micon0224 @SleeperCFB I mean as a 7th or UDFA wouldn’t care. Not like they’re taking him with a 3rd Moody styles

What happened at UTSA's Pro Day on Wednesday was insane, and I don't see anyone talking about it: Kicker (!!) Jaffer Murphy was clocked as low as 4.47 in the 40-yard dash and made a 70-yard FG. He also made 12 of his 13 attempts. Murphy spoke with over a dozen teams, I'm told.

@AJGullotta @LombardiHimself He's not wrong... you don't know what you're talking about.

@LombardiHimself Try not being wrong for just once in your life x.com/spotrac/status…

49ers have $16.7 million of 2026 cap room w/ all deals so far accounted for. This is on a 53-man projection w/ practice squad counted. Best way to envision build of post-cutdown roster. SF has room to temporarily carry Trent Williams at $46.3m. My work: #gid=819688277" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

@AJGullotta @LombardiHimself He's not wrong. Spotrac is using top 51 contracts and isn't including practice squad. Lombardi is using top 53 and practice squad. Lombardi takes it all into account because it will all count eventually.

@LombardiHimself Spotrac has the 49ers at $27 million with all deals accounted for. You are wrong.

@Kind0fABigDill @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac No he wouldn't. The team trading for him could negotiate the one year deal in conjunction with the trade.

@Lipp_024 @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac He'd have to be cut for somebody to sign him to a new 1 year deal. No team is stupid enough to take on that awful contract the 9ers gave him.

@rtcwon @49ersinfo @JayDanielsMVP @nwagoner The option bonus converts to a non guaranteed salary, which he only gets if he makes the 53 man roster in September. They will have to cut him, trade him, or pay him but they don't have to do that until September. If WAS wants to wait until then, so be it.

@49ersinfo @JayDanielsMVP @nwagoner No, it became fully gtd & the 25 option of $22.855M was paid on 4/1/2025 but the guarantee was voided in July, the 26 option for $24.935M is still due & converts to p5 when declined, I've seen some claim but not reported anywhere the due date was moved from 4/1/2026 to Sept 1 🤷‍♂️

Notes on WR Brandon Aiyuk via @nwagoner on the John Keim Report: • Doesn’t believe a team will trade for him • Aiyuk “sort of” has a de facto no trade clause; trading team would have to rework his contract in which he can have a say in that. • 49ers “very aware” of Aiyuk’s desire to play in Washington. • 49ers don’t have any picks after fourth round, so late-round pick swap not possible. • Washington has huge advantage over any team because of Jayden Daniels relationship with Aiyuk • [Keim]: Sense is that Washington feels pretty good about Aiyuk from what they’ve heard from Jayden; Sounds like Aiyuk has been working towards playing. • Aiyuk had good reputation with teammates; commanded a lot of respect in locker room.

@thomas_pm2 @49ersSportsTalk @spotrac It's not just partially true, it's true. They have prorated cap hits from previous bonuses that will escalate into 2026 if they release or trade him prior to June 1st, which makes it unlikely he is moved prior to that date.

@Lipp_024 @49ersSportsTalk @spotrac Partially true. His contract has zero guarantees now, so they can void the roster bonus and incentives as needed. If they wanted to, they could hold him all season long and let him rust up for another year.

.@spotrac believes the #49ers will wait until after June 1st to release WR Brandon Aiyuk "They'll wait until after other teams make decisions without him being in the fold. I think there's a little vindictiveness here, but I guess I understand it” Should SF cut him now or wait?

@gameoverguy16 @49ersSportsTalk I'm not 100% certain but most NFL transactions process at 4pm EST, so that's my best guess.

@Lipp_024 @49ersSportsTalk What time is the deadline?

🚨 BIG DAY in SF 🚨 #49ers LT Trent Williams is due a $10M option bonus TODAY. One of the best in the game… but business is business. 💰 Pay him & extend Or ✂️ Shock the league with a release What do you think happens? 👀

@Crobinson131986 @grantcohn That's Grant's shtick. He doesn't have anything insightful to provide so he lives in the negative to attract those who are dissatisfied with the team.

@grantcohn Are you ever satisfied with anything they do? Why do you cover them?

So the 49ers just gave Trent Williams $10 million but no extension?

@AJGullotta @49ersSportsTalk I'm pretty sure that the option doesn't process until 4pm eastern time (when NFL transactions process). What you said is true at that point. Either way, he's not getting released and is unlikely to get traded. It's either an extension or he plays out the final year at $38 mil.

That bonus is already paid to him today. He already got it. It’s 9:12 AM, that shit gets processed automatically. There is ZERO chance he gets released. Jed York isn’t cutting Trent Williams a $10 million check just to cut him right afterwards. It’s fuckin moronic to even think that’s a possibility

@Kind0fABigDill @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac A 1 year prove it deal is a new contract. Teams trade day 3 picks for 1 year rentals every year.

@Lipp_024 @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac Gotta think he's only going to want to sign a 1 year prove it deal wherever he goes. I doubt he gets a new contract. No team is going to be willing to give him a long term deal.

@Kind0fABigDill @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac They lose cap space if they cut him prior June 1st and only gain $5 mil at that point. Obviously the trade will coincide with Aiyuk signing a new contract, which is why he'll get to decide where he goes.

@Lipp_024 @chandrasharma @Coach_Yac uhhh money? You don't think they could use the cap space right now? No team is going to take on that God awful contract the 9ers gave him. He's 100% getting cut.

@Andersen49ers @Chase_Senior If they don't pick it up he becomes a free agent. If they pick it up, his cap number is $38 million.

@Chase_Senior The can just not pick it up, then it will covet to base salary (like they did with Deebo) They have the cap to handle that I don’t think he will play on the current deal this season

49ers LT Trent Williams is due a $10 million roster bonus on Friday. We should have a contract resolution by tomorrow. His cap hit for 2026 is nearly $39 million, which is the big hold up for the 49ers right now. Williams also has no guaranteed money left on his contract. The 49ers should give him an extension through 2027, which includes guaranteed money and a good average annual value. #49ers

@WhySoSerious510 @JohnLynch49ers They aren't going to sign him until his price comes down. Most of the players who remain unsigned likely are asking for more than teams want to pay them.

Seriously! what is the hold up on signing Joey Bosa to the #49ers !? what are we doing @JohnLynch49ers #Niners #NFL

@chandrasharma @Coach_Yac If Washington wants him in time for camp, they can send a late round pick in June. If not, then they can wait until September. 49ers have a roster exemption for him and have no incentive to release him.

@Coach_Yac They have no incentive to cut him before 9/1. If a team out there like Washington really wants him to be part of heir offseason program, they might be motivated to send a late-round draft pick in exchange. Why not use that leverage?

@LombardiHimself @LombardiHimself If there's no trade or extension today, is it safe to assume that Trent Williams will play out the final year of his contract at the $38 million cap number?

49ers wouldn’t be planning on 30 visits from KC Concepcion and Omar Cooper if WR were off the table. Again, signing Christian Kirk to a 1-year deal does absolutely nothing to draft plans, nor should it

@AJGullotta @mattbarrows No he wasn't.

@mattbarrows Except Williams was god awful last season

Didn't they draft Faulk last year (Mykel Williams)?

@AJGullotta @LombardiHimself Spotrac is basing the cap on the top 51 players while Lombardi is basing on the top 53. Also, Lombardi already has estimates for Kirk in there and is including dead money for Aiyuk. Lombardi's numbers are more useful.

@LombardiHimself Spotrac has the 49ers at $37.2 million in cap space and the only deals they haven’t included yet are Christian Kirk, Corliss Waitman, Garret Wallow, and Patrick Taylor.

Estimating $26 million of 2026 salary-cap space for the 49ers after Nate Hobbs' hit came in a little higher than expected without any void years. Still waiting on more contracts, most notably Christian Kirk's. Trent Williams, Brandon Aiyuk cap numbers not firmly set for this year, either... #gid=819688277" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
