Second me on that. I would also suspect that we will see some of Ronnie Bell on those WR sweeps. Bell isn't nearly as physical as Deebo is, but if you give the kid a clear path he can jet like Deebo does. He showed this ability a few times in, I believe, preseason games.
It's something I've been thinking about.
One thing I'm wondering is... Sure, what makes Deebo special is his physicality and energy on these plays. But I wonder if what makes him hard to replace is his gravity. The only other player in the league that could match his physicality, energy, and gravity is Christian McCaffrey, and he's already playing a role in these plays.
