Evaluating if Detroit Lions should trade for Brandon Aiyuk.
are reportedly not in the market for another wide receiver, according to recent reports. However, an intriguing name could potentially be available as the start of training camp looms.
There has been speculation about his future with the team since they lost to Kansas City in the Super Bowl. After back-to-back 1,000-plus yard receiving seasons, Aiyuk has been in search of a new contract.is a premier talent at the position heading into the 2024 season. He's missed just one game over the last two seasons and has over 2,300 yards cumulative in that span. A big-bodied receiver, he fits a need the Lions currently have as an established receiver with good size.
For starters, the wide receiver market is high. The Lions know this well, having just signed Amon-Ra St. Brown to a four-yearwith an average annual value of $30 million. That deal was the biggest given to a wide receiver for exactly one day, when the Philadelphia Eagles surpassed that with their extension for A.J. Brown.
To make the deal work, the Lions would likely have to present Aiyuk with an extension. This would be another tough sell, as Detroit already has one top of the market wideout in. Another potential candidate for an extension, Jameson Williams, has two years remaining if the Lions elect to pick up his fifth-year option.
