Saga has come to a likely End San Francisco wide out will remain that for the next 5 years following a 4-year $120 million extension 76 of that coming in guarantees it was a 38 day hold in if you will took some twists and turns but in the end auk becomes the sixth $30 million per wide out in the game CBS Sports NFL analyst Ryan Wilson in with his thoughts Ryan this was a long time coming it's certainly seemed like he'd be playing in a different uniform this year at multiple different junctures but didn't like what those places looked like in the end how was this the reconciliation between auk and this front office seemingly getting what he want was it the guaranteed number that maybe was the win for San Francisco I'm at a loss Joe I'm glad the deal got done for the 49ers for Brandon auk but uh we heard reports maybe earlier this summer a month or so ago that uh the 49ers were just under 30 million Maybe 2728 which is sort of the jayen Wadd rain range and then we heard the Patriots one of the teams you talked about they were interested in acquiring broko when he became available in the trade market we're offering in the 32 neighborhood which is AJ Brown money and then they meet somewhere in the middle and it just wonders I wonder how long has this been on the table and why did it take so long to sign and part of me think BR auk uh had the had the hold in quote unquote he just didn't want to practice now that's just me speculating uh I I know that John Lynch the GM and Kyle Shanahan the head coach seen frustrated in recent days with the inability to get auk signed but I think we got down to the 11th hour and I don't know if it was a 76 million guaranteed that pushed him over the edge or the 30 million is the number that the 49ers came up from in recent recent days or maybe weeks uh but he's not the highest paid he's not the second third or fourth highest paid he's number five as you noted that's right about where he should slot in just below Justin Jefferson and uh what we saw uh CD lamb get the other day but it's curious the good news is he's there now and they have all their weapons and the other looming issue uh before the Brock py looming issue arises is getting left tackle Trent Williams under contract but right now uh something to feel good about and B bruk is is back in the wide receiver room and apparently he's going to work out so that's great give thanks for that extra day it's a Monday nighter for San Francisco here in week one we'll see if how you can get up to speed we know he knows the offense but game speed is a little different especially when you haven't been practicing all summer long this does underline what's going to happen in the years to come for San Francisco though as well you got a $30 million wide out you got young all Pros all over the field you got Trent Williams still not in practice what does this mean for Trent and also the roster Construction in the years to come with so much talent ready to come back for a bite at the Apple well as recently as three hours ago before brand yuk signed they had salary cap space to get both frent Williams and Brandon yuk the deals that they presumably W are close to it one down one to go so there's room to maneuver and typically when you sign these deals the first year the cap number goes down and then you push the money off into the future uh but I think and I've been saying this for a couple days now because we've been talking a lot about auk and Trent Williams Trent Williams is the most important person in that offense and that includes the quarterback and Christian mcaffry and George KD and Debo Samuel and brand auk you can Shuffle those guys and pull their names out of a hat Trent Williams has to be number one uh we saw last year when Trent Williams was out for a few games Christian McCaffrey's productivity suffered running the ball so Kyle janahan is well aware of what this means as is John John Lynch and it strikes me that Trent Williams isn't one to mess around Joe so if he says he's not coming to work don't count showing up holding in or doing he's going to be on his couch until he gets the number he wants so they have the money to do it that they're going to have to get that done because this Super Bowl window to your point is eventually going to close two three four years from now you can't keep everyone and they do have to get Brock pie under contract pretty soon here uh a year from now or so uh so I think Trent Williams is now the the the biggest issue they have to resolve they feel great about auk but I if you ask me to give you my honest opinion Trent Williams is the most important person that they have to get under contract and they need him out there week one no doubt about it yeah despite the AJ long-standing constant there on the left side we'll see if they can get Williams done in time for week one meantime the last remaining QB question got an answer on Thursday New England Patriots plan to roll out veteran jacobe brassette week one against the Bengals that means the third overall pick in Drake May will begin his season as a professional on the clipboard first year head coach dad Mayo said prior what's best for the team today may not be what's best for the team down the road certainly leaving that door open for May to earn the job in the not too distant future Ryan this appeared to be the direction things were heading in New England not because of Any inefficiencies out of Drake May and camp or in the preseason but broader issues here on this roster you assess the prospect is this the best interest of the third overall pick here sitting to start for the Patriots look I'm not related to Drake May I'm not his parents or his brother uh I said a prayer of thanks that gerod Mayo decided to go with job brasset because there's no reason on God screen to put him out there this isn't a Houston Texans situation A team that won two games a year prior who let CJ stra start and they caught fire they caught fire because they had a lot of good players around CJ Stout the offensive line was in much better shape than the Patriots offensive line currently finds itself and they had Playmakers at the skill position player as the skill position a wide receiver in particular something that the Patriots also don't have at least not yet maybe one of these rookies will pop so I I think that the plan going into the preseason was too brassette and then to your point Joe Drake May CAU fire preseason he looked pretty good and I I was concerned that Gerard Mayo was going to waver he didn't new off coordinator Alex velt has a history with Jobe verette going back to Cleveland it sounded like he felt jacobe knew this offense better a few weeks ago I don't think that's changed the athleticism the arm strength the leadership uh we see all those things from from Drake may but he's also 21 years old and there's a lot left to learn and it's hard to learn those lessons when you're on your back 50 60 70 times a year because you're taking sack after sack after sack so I think this isn't the best longterm and short-term interest for Drake may this team ain't winning 10 games Joe they're probably going to win five or six and if that's the case let Drake May learn by watching maybe you play him after Thanksgiving once the season has been decided playoff wise but until then there's absolutely no rush to get him out there all right so all 32 have their qb1 for week one we got a new deal for auk the chase hold in continues but we do have more receiver news as well on this day Kansas City's Rashi rice will not be placed on the commissioner's exempt list for week one rice facing multiple felony charges for his role in a six-car crash this off season he was felony speeding uh being one of those charges the league not likely to hand down discipline before the courts do and that date has yet to be set Ryan I know we've seen Mahomes succeed in different iterations of this passing attack but just how integral is Race's contribution this season this is a huge development Joe because we know that the Chiefs had sort of been scrambling this offseason to fill some of the wide receiver holes Tyreek Hill left a few years ago of course and they still were able to win a Super Bowl in large part because of what Rashid rice did as a rookie he got off to a slow start but by the time it was all said and done he was second in receptions among all rookies behind some guy named puaa second in receiving yards third in touchdowns and he was one of the best Yak receivers y after the catch receivers in the NFL so all those things taken together you see the yak right here uh there was a huge void about to be on this uh in this wide receivers room had Rashid rice gotten suspended we know uh that Mars Brown you see his name there is going to be out for a few weeks with with a shoulder injury Xavier Worthy's a rookie burner but he's only about 165 lbs he can run 4 tws and Junior Smith Shuster is a veteran who's uh probably wide receiver four best case uh as we sit here we know about Travis Kelce of course but I think getting receiv ice is a huge development for Patrick Mahomes a huge safety blanket to go along with his other safety blanket in Travis Kelce and don't forget that their week one match up against the Ravens uh Michael McDonald is now the the their defensive coordinator is now the head coach in Seattle so they're trying to figure some things out defensively without him and he was a a a great DC in those two years there and that's why you got a head coaching job as a young a young coach but I think Rashid rice is going to give them all sorts of problems and as long as he's on the field and it's not suspended that's great news for that offense Andy Reed and Patrick Mahomes started with a misstep a season ago against Detroit no doubt a couple in or out to their second consecutive Super Bowl as the Quest for number three rolls on it's
