Switching Dyami for Deebo is a huge upgrade, I had predicted a 5th so that seems right. He may not be the same Deebo from 3 years ago but he's 29 and missed only 2 games in each of the last 2 seasons. SF turned into a dumpster fire and Deebo was not motivated, which is an issue. But he looks to be a great candidate for a big season in a new situation, he will also be in a contract year.

This could very well end up a 1 year rental and that's the only rub for me. With the $17 M hit the cap situation is no longer awesome as they still have a ton of players to sign to get to 53.

Let's hope AP will be able to trade back in the 1st to pick up more picks. But you need a partner and in a draft that is deep but not top heavy that may be hard to do.
Remember we will save $$$$$ when Allen is gone; so his salary should cover most of Deebo’s we are taking on.

Deebo isn't a WR2, he's more of a short distance weapon to mess with defensive formations coverage.

He's not a vertical threat, and SF only really targeted him as such when they were able to scheme up linebackers on him in man coverage.

We still need someone who can stretch it. That would make the Deebo trade much more useful.

Agree, and for once it's the kind of logically necessary move that I have no doubt this FO will make. Draft or trade, they will add another pass catcher that can help Terry stretch the field.

This is the reaction From my friends who are primarily fans of nfc north and afc north teams.

They aren’t biased like us or nfc East fans.

Great pick up for Washington.

Gives Daniels another weapon and expands the offense for Kingsbury.

Another note- a reason for drop off last year

If you pick like Washington picks in the 5th it is a steal- Not so much as what Peters has done:

Fantastic trade. Samuel still has gamebreaking potential imo.

Looking for McCaffrey to become a WR3.

Paying Deebo 17.5 mil with his level of production and number of injuries the last few years seems crazy.

I disagree. While he's had some injuries, It’s not that Samuel misses a lot of games — he has missed a combined nine in the past four years. Samuel ranked second among WRs in average YAC and has never finished outside the top two among WRs in YAC per reception.

I think KK will find ways to utilize his talents.
