Deebo Samuel-WR-South Carolina | Page 1586

NYniner85 · 2019-01-22T18:49:00-08:00

He's a very intriguing prospect...has great footwork and is a good route-runner. Is a YAC machine with some good hands. He dealt with poor QB play and some injuries.

Deebo is so underrated by our fan base.

He is? I think he's generally loved, even at the end of his first stint, but people saw his limitations. The way he is used now is perfect. I honestly think he can be potentially better next year if we have a healthy Pearsall, Stribling, and Evans. The more space we can give Deebo the better.

Also congratulations to #19 on passing up JT. That really is a big deal.

Even with that he still went for 700 yards in a terrible offense.

The question is.. do we let him get away again next off-season?
I think we're only paying him 5 Mill?
If that's the case I would give him another 2 or 3 on top of that to sick around for another year or 2.

Him, Evans, Pearsall, Stribling and a mid-late round rookie.

I could see us bringing Jennings back on a team friendly deal.. Robinson is a UFA next year but I would love to have him back as our 5th-6th WR

It was because he was mid in 2024. Didn't think he would look good again but right now he is. Let's see how he does today. No turnovers!

If he continues to impact the game the way he's doing so this year, I can see Kyle and John forking over 💲💲💲to keep him.

At the right price. He is WR3 or 4 on this team if everyone is healthy. His value is higher here thsn anywhere else and I think/hope he sees that. I'd pay WR3 money just because of the explosiveness.

Nah, I think he's realized now that he's just not the same player outside of Kyle's system and play calling. If he's resigned I'd expect it to be at a reasonable salary, but doubt any other team would offer more after seeing what happened the last couple seasons.

Kind of felt his fumbling issue was eventually going to hurt us. Didn't think it would also hurt him.

Brady helped him by saying when you pull a hammy players forget that have a ball.

Regardless it wasn't a fumble

This is why I don't like using him as a return man and a RB too. It wears him down and he can get injured. I would like to see him be healthy. Let's hope it's not serious and he's back with us soon. Hopefully just a pull and heals up in a few weeks. After the bye or something. Not a tear of the muscle hopefully.

When I recently started hearing some 49er media hacks talking about, hey the team should try to get Jennings back I thought this is so dumb. But now it would actually be a pretty good idea, he has not done Jacks**t on the Vikings and Jack left town. O'Connell doesn't seem to have any clue how to use him and all Kyler wants to do is throw it to anyone but him. He absolutely does not belong there, it's a terrible fit. Wonder what it would take to get him back in a trade.

Should have been down by contact.

Not downplaying his injury but the entire play seemed a bit overdramatic. He pulled a hamstring but collapsed and let go of the ball like he suffered some kind of brain injury. Just secure the ball and fall down.
