Nailed it. WRs are getting huge money right now. On the Niners he can't maximize his value. Plenty of reasons to not love being there even if they are a good team.
It makes sense for a QB to put the team first, because it benefits the QB in the long run, too. Look at Brady. He was basically never the highest-paid QB and he's making huge bank on side gigs because of all the rings. But that's the only position in the NFL that's really measured by rings. Rings are nice, of course; winning feels really good; but the parade ends, the headlines fade, while the money can be there for your family for decades.
We see it often enough, guys who cashed in early in their career and now want to be on a team with a legit shot of a title. (ODB in recent memory.)
True, but also, 1k yards ain't what it used to be either though is it? 17 games vs 16, that along diminishes it doesn't it? Used to be you had to average 63 yards a game to hit 1k. Now it's 59. Combine that with the ridiculous rule changes skewed heavily to advance the passing game, 1k just doesn't exactly have the same 'oomph' that it used to.
Let's take a close look at Aiyuk.
Seems like a great reason for players to sign with the Cowboys, Texans, Dolphins, Jags, Raiders, Bucs, Titans. Also a great reason to move the Niners, the Chargers, and Rams to Wyoming or Washington or S. Dakota or maybe even Alaska. F. Cali and their taxes! You know they'd sell out no matter where they are
Have you spent time in California?The weather and amenities are almost worth it
As little as absolutely needed. Over the years, maybe a combined total of 3-4 weeks in or around LA, and a week in S.D. area.
My sister lives in L.A.
heading to San Diego next week for a little get away. If I had unlimited funds we might live their in spite of the costs. Thinking about moving to the Florida panhandle. Will spend three winter months there starting January. My wife is a southern girl and has trouble with the cold and snow of Colorado.As little as absolutely needed. Over the years, maybe a combined total of 3-4 weeks in or around LA, and a week in S.D. area.
Hard pass for me, but better than NYC/New Jersey, so I'll give em that
Jersey shore is the best. However, even more expensive than California these days.As little as absolutely needed. Over the years, maybe a combined total of 3-4 weeks in or around LA, and a week in S.D. area.

S.D. itself was nice, not at all a bad place, imho. it was the costs, especially all the fees added to your bills that other states just don't have. I don't wanna get political in this forum, but it's just the reality of the situation.
One of the things i love about my wife. We both like cold weather. We went skiing for our honeymoon. We spend more time outside when its below 50°. Nothing like sipping a coffee on a cool brisk morning outside.
I tell you what, if she wants heat, we got plenty of that - triple digits just about all month - yet she may survive it, like it - not so much. But a native(?) Colorado guy may have a very hard time - think you'll find yourself in reverse hibernation (summers inside, fall/winter out).
At my old job, a guy and his wife transferred from California where he was born and raised to the Chicagoland area.
Actually, pretty much every vacation we've taken has been the the northern central or northwest. Took a camping trip once from the Oregon coast all the way to southern Cal - it's pretty for sure - - so I'll add that the landscape is really, really nice - mountains, flowing rivers and streams - we got nothing to compare to that - but makes for a great spring/summer vacation. ...
