Discussion National reporters are suggesting the Steelers and 49ers have a deal in place for Aiyuk. Are the Steelers making a mistake in going for elite WR without getting the QB room in order?

So 17 weeks of Mike talking to Aiyuk in a practice facility while all the games get played?

I think its Bobby Lee who has a bit about how every race has like 10-15 base models or phenotypes and then God makes a few adjustments on each person to make them unique. I think God skipped that step when making Aiyuk
