Think about this. You are a star performer at your position at work and your boss asks you to increase your work load with extra manual labor. With the extra manual labor, your primary role at your titled position diminishes a bit. But you are a team player and will do whatever you are asked to do. Than when its time to negotiate a new salary, they low ball you at your primary position because you did exactly what they asked of you even at the expense of your primary jobs performance. If this is the case, I would be pissed also if I were Deebo.
Great post, it's absolutely this, Deebo has done more for the team, who now want to pay him less.
To be fair to the team, they probably had a figure in mind that everyone would have been happy with, then the market changed. Going to be a tough negotiation, but it'll get done.
From the employers perspective the job we hired you for you did slightly above average. Hands not the greatest, route running mediocre drops. Let's be real Deebo was not an all pro his first two years as a receiver he had quite a few issues and still does. His main job a receiver is sometimes hard because he drops a ton of balls.
they move him to a job where he excels at and basically jump start his career and he still wants to be paid at a top level from a job they moved him from.
im just presenting their side but I'm with Deebo. Get your bag man. Should be paid more than Aj and less than mclauren a true no 1 receiver. If he wants more than Terry he has to find it elsewhere.
He had a solid rookie season. Folks for some reason seem to forget that. He had an injured riddled sophmore season. His third season, he was on pace to have the greatest season for a WR in 49er history before they increased his work load at RB.
Lets stop acting like Deebo is some slouch at receiver. Yes. He is not a natural pass catcher and has a habit of leading the ball into his body which leads to drops. I am willing to bet he will get that cleaned up. I can't see why he won't since he has cleaned up other areas of his game. He does excel at catching the ball in traffic though.
He has also cleaned up his route running a lot. Maybe you need to watch some film before making remarks about stuff you don't know. Also, on top of the route running, he has shown the nack for making himself a target after the initial play breaks down.
Nothing I saw last season tells me Deebo is going to regress. In fact, he took a huge leap last season at the WR position. I also imagine he is only going to get better with experience which makes him a player to be even more excited about. He was great last season and its crazy to think the guy still has room to grow.
