Aiyuk to the Steelers?

[SHOWTIME]

Seems to be a lot of buzz around the Steelers finalizing a trade for Aiyuk.

Though things remain fluid between the Brandon Aiyuk camp, the 49ers and their trade partners, the Steelers have been gaining traction as Aiyuk’s preferred destination, I’m told. Despite stronger offers from other teams, Pittsburgh has emerged as a real option. pic.twitter.com/UcFLbASwEx

Two number 1s AND a contract like that?

I mean maybe, MAYBE if I had an elite qb like Houston on a rookie deal. But even that is a huge stretch.

Unreal

They’re not getting 2 firsts for Aiyuk.

We didn’t get 2 firsts for Hill.

They can wish in one hand and shit in the other here because there’s a zero percent chance that happens.

Funny how Deebo's 1,400 yard season is somehow proof that he's a great WR too that can run routes and separate, but Aiyuk hasn't even proven to be a "game changer" after a 1,342 yard season. Unlike Deebo, more than 50% of those yards didn't come from YAC either.

****ing

You keep harping on the RAC thing as if that isn’t insanely impressive for Deebo.

I wanted to use Dak because I’ve read enough posts on this board to know the temperature on the two is pretty similar. They’re both known as playoff chokers too.

Comparing him to Stroud doesn’t work as well because a lot of people would choose Stroud for who they expect he will become rather than what he was last year, which was not as good as Lamar.

Through Burrows age 27 season Burrow has thrown for 14,000 yards and 93 TDs with a single Pro Bowl.

Through Mahomes age 27 season he'd thrown for 24,200 yards and 192 TDs. He'd made 5 Pro Bowls, 2 All Pro teams and won 2 Super Bowls (and Super Bowl MVPs).

Yes, Joe Burrow is far far FAR closer to Andy Dalton than he his Patrick Mahomes. The fact that you fellas keep trying to pretend otherwise is the real joke. Joe Burrow is barely playing the same sport as Mahomes.

That's super cool how you use the "through age 27 season" and raw stats, like that makes your argument.

Andy Dalton was never more than an average regular season QB, with one exception where he got hurt after 12 games. He was bad in prime time, other than a few thursday night games and he sucked hard in the post season.

Burrow is unquestionably elite and has done so much more than Dalton, in his 4 years, it's not even funny to compare them. To anyone objectively looking at the 3, Burrow is much closer to Mahomes and Dalton doesn't even deserve to be mentioned with either of them.

Patrick Mahomes games played through age 27 season: 80
Andy Dalton games played through age 27 season: 64
Joe Burrow games played through age 27 season: 52
