00:00You mentioned Brandon Ayuk, and it is beyond me how long this has taken.
00:13I mean, this is every day now for a month.
00:17For a month, we have talked every day about Brandon Ayuk.
00:20And yesterday, the Steelers allegedly reengaged these negotiations for a trade.
00:27They want a receiver.
00:28I think it's Austin that they want, and all I know is it just never budges.
00:33It never moves.
00:34Nothing ever happens.
00:35Like, I give up.
00:36I don't even care anymore.
00:37All right, let me explain this to you.
00:39First of all, I'd be very surprised if the Niners would take back Calvin Austin.
00:44He's a talented guy, but he's smaller.
00:47They like bigger receivers, six foot or taller.
00:49They usually don't like the smaller receivers.
00:51And if you're the Steelers, they've got pickets, right?
00:57We've talked about pickets and how great George Pickens is.
00:59He had a very quietly, a really good season last year.
01:01They're not trading him.
01:02No, I know.
01:03I know.
01:04No, they're looking for someone to play opposite him.
01:06That's where Ayuk comes in.
01:07Right.
01:08And that what would happen is, is Roman Wilson, I'm told, their hope is that he'll be back
01:12in about two weeks, come back from a pretty significant ankle injury.
01:15He would be the number three receiver.
01:17They're not trading Frymuth.
01:18No, it's Pickens is going nowhere.
01:21They don't want to create a problem.
01:22They already have issues with definite receivers.
01:25So George Pickens, by the way, Pickens is what we call an ex-receiver.
01:29Ayuk could play that side.
01:30We could play the other side.
01:31He could also play inside.
01:33He's a completely different player than Ayuk, I mean, than Pickens.
01:36I don't know where people compare the two.
01:38Pickens is a contested catch.
01:39Go get it.
01:40Ayuk is a run after the catch, incredible with a ball in his hands, a phenomenal talent.
01:46And by the way, the contract, if it gets done and this happens, it should be around what
01:50A.J. Brown got for the Eagles, around 32 million.
01:53That is the contract that he's looking to get.
01:57The Niners are nowhere close to that.
01:59That A.J. Brown deal was very, very solid, way better than his first deal that he got
02:04done with the Eagles.
