Commanders Post at The Warpath - View Single Post - Post Draft: Who do you want at WR2 / X Receiver?

Aiyuk timeframe update:
It is was speculated that the 49ers would drop Aiyuk after/if he reported to mandatory OTAs.

Jun 9th was a mandatory OTA, but it was just canceled by Shannahan for OTAs having 100% attendance (which isn't true as Aiyuk is on the roster)

Soo, that pushes back the next mandatory date to training camp itself around July 22nd as the first date Aiyuk could show up and become a problem, especially July 23rd which is open to the fans.

So this move pushes back an earliest possible release date by 6 weeks. If I'm Aiyuk and want to ever play in the NFL again, I start working my butt off to get into football shape and show up as a major distraction, otherwise his NFL career is over. In any case, I think it will be case closed on July 23rd when the fans show up at training camp for the 49ers. If he doesn't show, he costs them nothing and he is just perpetually a ghost trapped on the 49ers.

My opinion is we don't need someone who is unpredictable and injured, regardless of upside. I am open to Diggs, otherwise, it looks like we may roll with Terry and a ton of ???
Which likely means a losing season
