IF they were to trade a WR, for me I'd prefer it to be Deebo if I had to choose between the two. Deebo's got that diva in him, Aiyuk seems like he's a team guy.
Where has anyone seen diva in deebo? In contract talks trying to get his paycheck? Well it isn't as big of an issue with BA because he already got a bag, and has a 5th year that will double his career earnings.
He came in camp not in peak conditioning? after an injury that effected his ability to work out. Or is it his body has changed so much because his roles have shifted and calls for adjustments?
I think it comes from 9moon calling him 'Deevah', other forum members read it, then make that association. When I think diva WR, I think of a WR that complains about not being targeted enough, whether the team is winning or not - the WR needs to get his numbers. Even then, a WR wanting to get targeted isn't a bad thing, it's just how visible to the outside world are they making it. Throwing a tantrum on the sideline is diva behavior, as is complaining to the media. I don't remember Deebo ever doing either.
Contract talks are contract talks, every good player is going to play hardball, that's not what I think of when I think diva football player.
