Breer details Patriots' trade package, contract offer to Aiyuk originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
The New England Patriots apparently put their best put forward in the Brandon Aiyuk sweepstakes -- on multiple fronts.
The Patriots aggressively pursued the Second-Team All-Pro wide receiver on the trade market this offseason, sending trade proposals to the San Francisco 49ers both prior to the NFL Draft in April and during Aiyuk's training camp holdout in early August.
In fact, the 49ers reportedly had the "framework" of trades in place with both the Patriots and Cleveland Browns at one point.
