49ers WR at 204 ADP with social media drama and injury history

Brandon AiyukWR

Aiyuk fell 9.8 spots to 204 overall. Adam Levitan characterizes the situation as going beyond normal wide receiver diva behavior: crazy rants on social media, going off on the 49ers front office, firing his agent, dumping money on the ground, and fighting (or possibly fake fighting) with Jaden Daniels. Speculation suggests the Commanders would be interested in Aiyuk once the 49ers cut him, but the social media nonsense has turned them off. Levitan buys this speculation because Aiyuk isn't a star anymore—unlike Puka Nakua, who can say insane stuff and the Rams don't care because he's elite, Aiyuk hasn't been good since 2023 and has major injury history, so teams don't want to put up with the nonsense. Levitan is very risk-averse on zeros (per Leone's best ball manifesto) and has very little Aiyuk right now with no plans to start taking him. The social media situation may also make the Commanders more likely to sign Stefan Diggs instead.
