he’s my WR4 in a win-now lineup for me in a 16-teamer.
I’m fine agreeing to disagree. But he doesn’t run well enough to be a wide back anymore and he’s incapable of getting of getting any separation any longer (and it was never a strong suit). He’ll probably have some nice games against zones where he can get some steam and run over a small CB or two.
I guess we’ll find out when we see how WAS deploys him and what the results are.
What were their offers if you remember?
1. 2025 2nd &Mike Williams
Hmm.. yeah, and I'd imagine those are both mid 2nds at best. Don't see any bottom of the league teams wanting to take on Deebo.
Out of shape and slow? It appears to be the perfect time for Scary Terry to ask for some cash.
Cheese and Rice! Dude looks like Jamarcus Russell out there!
Yikes. Boy looking lumbering out there.
Being slow is what jumped out at me there. Looks like he's huffing and puffing from the first step on.
At least he has 3 months to get in football shape. If he's serious about it (and he should be playing on a 1 year deal) he has time to shed 10-15 pounds.
very much in the range of outcomes yes
Nico Harrison about to be a nfl gm just so he can trade himAnd i drafted him in the 13th round of a ppr best ball dynasty start up. Come on fatty get in shape!!!
Pretty cool that he's sticking up for his old teammate
Kittle is cute defending his fat friend
we don't fat shame around here!
I’d be ecstatic to have Deebo’s physique
its June 11th. If there’s one player in the NFL I’m not concerned with physical shape it’s Deebo. Let’s see what he looks like in August.
Man’s always had a big caboose. People seem to forget that Deebo is built like a linebacker, not like Davonte Smith. He’s a big thick dude.
Thanks, that's helpful information.
His 2021 sticks out like a very large, very sore thumb. Nevermind the fact that he had 60 carries and 8 rushing tds that season(good luck sniffing even half of those numbers with Daniels), even his next biggest season receiving he doesn’t even eclipse 900 yards. What are people expecting him to put up in Washington? Accounting for him likely missing a game or two, as well.
I know for fantasy there’s a massive chasm between Daniels and Purdy because of the rushing, but for real life I would beg to differ. Set the franchise record for franchise passing yards in 2023(4,280) and passer rating(113). He owns multiple NFL passer rating records. From a strictly passer perspective, I don’t believe Daniels is tiers above Purdy, and personally I’d say they’re even.
His 2021 sticks out for his receiving yardage but in fantasy he was 11th and 22nd in PPG 2 of his other 3 seasons since. That third season being last year when he started off great and then as often discussed was not the same guy after pneumonia.
But doesn’t that also beg the question of why a team would make him a lesser part of the passing offense intentionally in the first place? I guess that’s my main concern with Deebo, particularly at this stage of his career. He’s never been a great route runner or separator. I actually felt like SF as a whole did a great job of utilizing him as an all-purpose weapon by incorporating him so heavily in the rushing attack because I’m not sure they were ever confident just lining him up on the outside and asking him beat a corner in man coverage. How will Washington use him? He’s a guy I think you have to scheme things up for more so than other WR’s. At 29 years old and in a brand new scheme I guess I’m having a hard time seeing a renaissance happening, but I could be wrong.
I have never posted about Deebo’s caboose before this. Not one time.
Because the Shanahan offensive scheme moved players around in the formation a ton to keep defenses off balance. With Deebo & CMC in the backfield or one in the backfield & the other in motion, it opened ip huge holes. And it was wildly successful when CMC & Deebo were both healthy.
CMC wasn’t there in 2021 when Deebo had 60 rushing attempts. Also in 2023, with a healthy CMC, he was only averaging a little over 2 rushes per game.
No, they had injuries at RB in 2021 and needed what he offered as a receiver. The other years as I'm trying to point out it's not been a major part of his usage but targets in this offense has never been easy to obtain in high volume and I think they just wanted to find ways to get the ball in his hands past just receiving.
I agree but you are talking about the weakest part of his game. He's never been good against man coverage but is against zone. I've only felt he needed help getting schemed against man, but a lot of WR's need that help.
I think central to where we may not align in our thinking is I don't view him as needing a renaissance. I just need the guy to not play like he did after the pneumonia sidelined him and led to weight and conditioning issues. That's really been the only time of his career since 2021 he did not live up to where his ADP is right now, which is around WR40, has generally blown that away in games played.
This is certainly a fair range. I didn’t realize his ADP was quite so low. Worth the plunge there.
I am in a startup best ball SF PPR dynasty league right now and got him in the 13th round and he was WR #58. That my friends is a STEAL IMO. And best ball is the perfect format for him, don't have to worry about weeks he goes off, he'll be in my lineup
Well Peters has been very good evaluating talent, if he thinks Deebo has something left, I'm incline to trust his assessment and give him a shot. And again, this is a mid/late round flyer, well worth the investment IMO
I thought the 49ers situation without a quality receiving back wasn’t ideal. That, combined with the OL being somewhat sub-par, (especially run-blocking) contributed to his poor season.
When I owned Deebo I would always assume that he would be out a few games with a soft tissue injury. Idk about last year. He's got too much explosive upside to ignore him, and it's possible he'll be better served by being the wr2 than the main focus.
Buy in redraft @ the right price. Those owners in dynasty may have to wait the whole year to know wth he's worth. That vid did owners no favors for sure. Kittle mitigated some of that loss but not all.
