Maybe he'll play for free. Never seen a player want to be a Commander this bad lol.[/QUOTE]


Maybe he can try out for the Command Force. Seriously, the behavior is so concerning. And presumptuous. Wildly so.

Because he’s still under contract with the 9ers, they can’t say anything I believe.

We've heard nothing causing me to think we may have interest. Aiyuk's bs aside he could ball prior to signing that fat deal and doing nothing. Still don't want him but his NFL future will be interesting.

Brandon now throwing shade at JD and his mom.

This Antonio Brown clone isn’t coming here. AP would destroy the team by bringing this head case.

Can't stand him throwing dirt at JD5 and his family, but it may indicate we have 0 interest thankfully. At this point he may never play in the league again.

Aiyuk has clear mental health issues. He shouldn't even be worried about football. He needs to get some help.

Sign Diggs and let's roll*.

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
Silence doesn't necessarily mean that we are interested. The FO has been pretty tight-lipped with drafts and free agency in the last 2 years, why would they break the silence specifically for Aiyuk?

Just odd to me that we have heard nothing at all from even the press surmising. Very tight lipped which is commendable by the franchise.

Honestly maybe Terry, Brown, Williams, Burks, Jefferson, and McCaffrey can be decent, but I still would like to bring in Diggs and increase the talent.

skinsnut 07-06-2026 09:19 AM

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
Ok, now that Aiyuk has mentioned Daniels hiding behind his mama, I am officially out.
Even if it was an act, including Daniels, it would likely be considered tampering so that could never come out. Yet, it would have to be explained as that to his teammates for them not to hate the guy for talking smack about the franchise qb's mother.

It has gone too far, I am not interested even for vet min.
In a way, I am relieved.
I still want Diggs, he is the only other needle mover out there, and we need one as QB1 injury insurance.

I feel bad for Aiyuk, he has thrown away his career, he "Could have been a contender!"(Brando)

Also, with the recent signing of Rasul Douglas, this means the front office has a pen in its hand, hopefully they hand it to Stefon Diggs this week (just hoping!)

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
[quote=skinsnut;1380654]At this point we still don't have a clear answer at WR2 Z receiver

Who would be the best and what are the pros and cons of each?

To aquire:
1. Brandon Aiyuk 28 - headcase risk, injured, possible?
2. Juane Jennings 28 - attitude risk, non separator possible? GONE
3. [B]Deebo Samuel[/B] 30- drops, not vertical, gadget, possible?
4. Tyreek Hill 32 - old, injured, legal, headcase risk
5. Keenan Allen 34 - old, mainly slot, wants other team
6. [B]DeAndre Hopkins[/B] 34 - old, wants other teams, possible?
7. [B]Stephon Diggs[/B] 32 - old, legal, headcase risk

And someone on the Roster?
1. Antonio Williams (drafted) mainly slot, can separate, possible?
2. Luke, mainly slot, non separator
3. Dyami, drops, non separator, limited route tree
4. Jefferson, non separator, catches well, possible?
5. Lane, mainly slot, undeveloped route tree
6. Burks, non separator[/quote]

I'm now thinking, the only 3 vets that we would sign now would be one of the bolded three.
I can see Hopkins as viable McClaurin injury insurance along with Diggs.
There is no way I see us signing Aiyuk after the JD mom comment.

Would you be ok with us signing Hopkins?

Aiyuk's behavior is some of the most petulant, childish I've seen. Dude seriously may have thrown what chance he had of a NFL career remaining away. He has done NOTHING since signing the big contract and has basically fleeced the Niners.

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
We just need a short term rental for wr this year.

Our long term wr#2 and future #1 as Terry’s replacement; will be drafted in the 2027 draft.

sdskinsfan2001 07-07-2026 09:26 PM

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
Diggs was very productive last year. He should have been signed yesterday. Not looking for perfect saints, we're looking for good football players. Sign the man. He will make our offense drastically better.

[quote=sdskinsfan2001;1380890]Diggs was very productive last year.[/quote]Not just last year. He already has 7 1,000 yd receiving seasons and the others he produced strong numbers also. He always puts produces and puts up yards. Dude is underrated honestly and wants the ball. Do not get the delay here. Sign him. He's 32 years old not 42 lol.

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
I think we aren’t signing anyone early. We want to see how our wr room performs in camp. We probably don’t add a vet wr until closer to start of preseason games.

If that is the approach, Diggs is likely out.
No way a 1000 yard receiver is available AFTER teams start training camp.
Unless he is asking for 15M or something and awaiting for a starter lost to injury, which I doubt.

If I'm Diggs, I sign the week before camp to maximize my value, that's in 2 weeks.
If I'm Washington, I'm already talking to him now.

Perhaps their late signing backup plan as you speculate is Hopkins?

I do think they will sign someone who could function as both a #2, and and injury backup to Terry. Diggs is the only one who could legitimately offer both.

[/quote]Exactly. Other than McLaurin (who may have issues staying healthy), we have no other receivers that are proven to produce consistently.

Diggs has almost twice as many career yards as McLaurin. He's also proven to be durable. The longer we delay, the less likely he signs here. Diggs has 2-3 years left of good football. Needs to be in DC.

I told mothafuckers that Brandon Aiyuk was a headcase long back and people still raged about getting him on the team. The man is poor version of Antonio Brown. Fuck him and his psychotic self. He needs therapy and is blowing away his entire career.

No chance he's on the Commanders at this point.

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
Part of me wants a less than stellar Deebo back to get some nasty 5 yard screens.
It is an attitude that I always appreciated. He's basically a wide TE. As long as we have some sort of wide speed deep threat, why not have both? I mean NASTY is a thing. There is a RIGGO element I identity with, not so much victim Aiyuk premidona shit.
Football is ass kicking. Attitude is everything.

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
I'm not enlightened enough on what we have, at least until camp, so I'm looking at what's available. I can see the logic of bringing in Diggs and Samuel on 1 year deals so we can hopefully draft our next #1 and #2 WR's next year (on the assumption Scary is gone inside 3 years). I don't want Aiyuk now; the guy appears unhinged at this point. I look at the likes of the Bengals. A prime #1 WR, solid #2 and a reliable TE target. I'd say we're almost there for the next year or two, but beyond that we must find draft talent and not a stream of FA's and low round picks. Diggs would be a true #2 and Deebo gives us that slot/screen/gadget guy again. I really wish some of the depth talent would step up, but we can't rely on them to do that and so we need at least one insurance guy in place. I say both of them. With Scary and Okonkwo we should have at least 1 guy open every play, and massively reduce JD5's need to run.

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
Well, kinda see why the Patriots cut him. Diggs is solid, but his home life is a problem.
Certainly not a self disciplined person off the field. Another shame, but this was known all along. There is really no one else that is McClauren injury insurance.

We may have no choice but to roll with our under impressive wr corp

skinsnut 07-11-2026 07:55 PM

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
So Hopkins or Deebo?
I prefer Hopkins, as he at least has #1 receiver experience

GridIron26 07-12-2026 10:36 AM

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
Lol well, at this point, I think it's pretty safe to assume that we are going to stick with what we currently have, like it or not.

No thanks to Hopkins - he is like Ertz at this point of his career, can make clutch catches and that's it.

WCommandersfan99 07-12-2026 12:38 PM

Re: Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?
 
Not good news about Diggs at all. At this point, all of us need to pray McLaurin stays healthy this year. If he goes down, we are in trouble. With him, I think we can be ok not elite. Eager to see what Burks and Williams can do. Chig should help and hopefully Brown/McCaffrey. Still maintain this offense primarily will go with the oline and JD5 remaining healthy.

And who needs someone to make clutch catches? I guess having 1 is entirely enough.
Don't worry NFL defensive coordinators won't figure out how to double team McClauren on 3rd and 8 down by 4 with 30 seconds left.

Let's not diss Ertz, the dude was massively dependable. We need more of that. Not sure Chig would be considered as clutch as him yet, so there is a drop-off there. More deep routes, sure.

I don't want to discount a signing like Hopkins aka Noah Brown. That nobody dude launched our dream 2024 winning streak because of a single game winning catch. Right place, right time, low drop percentage. I argue we need one of those too. Not sure we have dependable hands at wr other than Terry.
Fingers crossed is no way to go about building year 3 with a star QB, but I think that is where we are headed. Because of this WR gap alone, I do not see us with a winning record. I sure hope I am wrong.

I don't think Diggs or Aiyuk is in the cards for this team at this point. They probably bring back Deebo on the cheap.

I’d be ok with that. He played well for us last year with not a lot of help around him. Showed up and worked hard. Was a good teammate by all accounts. Be curious to see him in a new offense. I could see him working like a 3rd TE in 3 TE sets.

[/quote]Ertz was a good player for Commanders and Eagles. He doesn't have the athletic skills Chig does nor runs a 4.52 40. Chig could be a serious weapon for Daniels. Loved this signing and eager to see what he does. Agree with you about Ertz being clutch. Dude had strong hands also.
