Dude is a legit weapon, who has breakaway speed. Should be paid as much.

Kyle making him a RB so they pay him as a RB. This is smart cap management.

I think Deebo's range is $16M-$18M a yr, he'll likely want to beat what Kupp got, which was $15.75M a yr, and he's well worth whatever we do give him, I don't see them not paying him, and Bosa, both should get new deals this offseason.

Deebo looks faster than ever before. He has like whole 'nother gear this season. He's making DK become an afterthought. Also, doesn't come with all the diva baggage.

I feel like DK would have been underutilized here anyways. He's more or a traditional wide receiver.

so you're saying you'd still take Deebo over DK?

They bring different things to the table. The WR at RB element wouldn't be as prevalent without Deebo, but perhaps different WR routes would open up for DK in this offense due to his blend of size, power, and speed.

If we had DK here instead of Deebo, he'd probably open up the downfield and sideline routes a little more… though to be honest, while he can make those throws, those aren't Jimmy's best throws.

Anyway, that's all conjecture. Deebo in our offense with Shanahan and Jimmy is playing at a Pro Bowl level and is going to deserve All-Pro consideration.

Yeah… the vision was that he'd be this pass catching demon that would be like Christian McCaffrey. I wonder what would've happened if he didn't have the knee injuries.

oh s**t

Damn, Verrett was really all in on this team. Sucks he got injured.

Do we think Deebo at RB is going to be seen even more as the season goes on? Or just because we've had some injuries at RB?

I feel like he's proving himself to be a nightmare wherever he's at. Defenses are going to start focusing on him wherever he's at. If we put him at RB, and then slide Elijah Mitchell or Jeff Wilson to RB, now there's a big screen option threat there too.

And Deebo could potentially run RB routes out of the backfield and he's going to command so much attention.

I envision that he's going to start to take on a Steph Curry role where the defense's focus just gravitates to him. That's going to bode well for Kittle and Aiyuk.

He's going to get OPOY votes.

16 - 18 Million a year? Holy !

Nice game by Deebo - keep it up big boy.

Only 6 more yards to get to 1,000. Thought he would've for sure gotten that number today.

Just a stupendous monumental effort…all game long. He's what we needed to win. Without Elijah, that is a tough man to replace yet Deebo did it. Amazing effort and performance.

Kittle's at $15m a year as one of the top 2 TE's in the league, but doesn't play a premium position.

WR is a premium position. The top 5 WR's are around $20-22m and Deandre Hopkins is at $27m/yr I believe.

Deebo has been our one consistent shining star on offense, and so much of it revolves around him. He's about to break 1000 yards. I'd be pleasantly surprised if he gets past 1500 yards, but am expecting less targets with Aiyuk stepping up. I'm guessing he'll finish around 1400 yards.

If we can get him at $16-18m year, and he stays healthy, and has this kind of production in both the pass/run game… thatd be huge.

He could've if we had a need to pass more.
Still made a huge impact in the run game though.
