Brandon Aiyuk is the Most Over Paid Receiver in the NFL? 🚨

Week 3 of the NFL season is complete and there are four remaining undefeated teams; Vikings, Steelers, Chiefs, and Seahawks. The Bills have the potential to be the 5th team to start 3-0 this season. 49ers allow a comeback from Stafford who has the most game-winning-drives among active players. Texans and Buccaneers are brought back to reality and the Panthers pick up win with Andy Dalton.

Week 3 Takeaways:
- Malik Nabers might be the real deal even with Daniel Jones.
- Andy Dalton replaces Young in what I consider a “fluke” game.
- Eagles HC Sirianni close to being in the hot-seat.
- Vikings defense is unmatched… so far.
- Dolphins have to figure out QB situation.
- Lamar is right to not be happy with Ravens game management.

Monday Night Pre-Two? ⤵️

On Monday Night Football this week we get two matchups to watch with the Jaguars and the Bills kicking off at 7:30 EST and the Commanders and Bengals to follow at 8:15 EST.

Jaguars vs Bills -5.5

Trevor Lawrence is currently on a 7-game losing streak with the Jaguars last win dating back to November of last season. Not to mention that Josh Allen is 15-3 at home since 2022. But things could look promising for the Jaguars based on history 🔽

Commanders vs Bengals -7

Tee Higgins is expected to suit up for this matchup making it the first game this season that Joe Burrow has had all his weapons available. This is the third straight year the Bengals have had an 0-2 start while Commanders quarterback is still searching for his first passing touchdown of the season. The Bengals have given up the 4th most rush yards per game this season and the Commanders have the NFL’s 3rd most rushing yards per game. However, the two teams are historically as even as can be 🤣🔽

Is Brandon Aiyuk the Most Overpaid NFL Player?

Brandon Aiyuk held out on the 49ers into training camp this season while negotiating himself a new contract. San Francisco finally agreed on a deal to pay the wide receiver $120M making him the 5th-highest paid receiver in terms of contract value.

With the 49ers missing plenty of skill players; CMC, Deebo, and Kittle — this game was supposed to be one that Aiyuk dominated. Instead, he took the backseat to Juan Jennings whose total contract value is only just above $11M. Jennings posted more receiving yards in this game alone than Aiyuk has all season combined. This game with 175 receiving yards was more than Aiyuk has ever recorded in a single game and the same goes for Jennings’ 3 TD’s in Sunday’s loss.

Since Aiyuk was drafted in 2020, he ranks 17th in receiving yards behind players like Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, Stefon Diggs, & Tyler Lockett; all players who’s contract value is under $41M total.

In this game against the Rams, Aiyuk dropped the lateral pass that left him with one man to beat for a chance to give the 49ers a win and escape the comeback from Los Angeles. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

Players Wrld Picks 🎰

The picks are currently 0-2 on Monday Night but that changes tonight⁉️

Daniels has averaged 66 yards a game through the first two weeks of his first NFL season. As mentioned before, the Bengals have given up the 4th most rush yards this season. Honestly would favor another 60+ rush yard game from Daniels tonight.
