NFL 2021-2022 Season Thread

I can think of two times in recent years when players have requested the #49ers to trade them. Neither got his wish. Robbie Gould and Raheem Mostert ended up signing new contracts with the club.

I’m guessing he wants to exclusively be a WR because the RB snaps with his style will grind him down.
But as a pure receiver he’s not worth nearly as much as the top guys, so he wants to get paid like a WADEBACK while doing only half of the work that made him a WIDEBACK.

It's posturing that is derived from what his value should be based on. Valuation is in the eye of the beholder. I can show a company is worth $100b or $0. Depends on the proxy. Startups, in the past and not as much currently, still use consumer eye balls (rather than revenue) as a proxy--for example. WRs have longer careers and have higher average values. RBs haven't really been valued since probably the early 2000s. So dude still wants to be a wide back, but he wants to paid as an elite WR only. Hence the trade request. I love Deebo, but if the Niners can get #10 and an early second, do it.

I love deebo, but he doesn't want the most dynamic part of his game to be utilized. Why would the niners pay him top dollar? And does Deebo think that the teams thinking of offering for his services won't want to use him like the niners used him last season?

Yeah, what makes Deebo special is getting him the ball in space and letting him go. You put him as a pure WR... he's not near a 25 mil dollar player.

Deebo and Jimmy G to the Panthers for pick 6, ‘23 2nd, and Brian Burns? What do we think?

Get 6 and trade down.

Bleh. Get rid of him. Especially if you can premium picks. Someone else can have fun trying to scheme him the way Shanny does.

 

[SLAB]

Apparently Kyle was making the rounds at the meetings wondering why others don’t want Jim because he’s so much better than what they already have.

Kyle. Teams have seen Jim play for the last 3 years. No one wants him. He’s bad. He’s always hurt. He’s overpaid. This would be hilarious if it wasn’t my team being so absurd with a dude.

Matt also adds that Deebo Samuel may not like California, doesn’t want to workout there or stay there during the off-season.

Can't stand these passive aggressive millionaire divas.

I know you guys don't like Jimmy but he is as classy as it gets.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Jimmy's contract is tough to swallow but I don't see how team doesn't take a step back this year with Lance. Maybe it works out but careful what you wish for.

 

[SLAB]

Jim’s awful INTs and missing Emmanuel Sanders in the Super Bowl were also tough to swallow. Good riddance.

Trade him. J-E-T-S! Jets!! Jets!!! Jets!!!!

 

[kb02]

Deebo is just salty that Tyreke got the Miami WR1 gig before he was able to get it:

Matt Maiocco added that Deebo Samuel was willing to workout with Trey Lance this off-season (with the other WRs) — but it wasn’t going to be in California.

He was willing to workout in Miami (or on the east coast).

Toney and a first for Deebo.

Poor man's Deebo and pick 7 for Deebo sounds very very nice

I don’t think the Niners would touch him. Shifty, elite shiftiness. But looks maybe 4.6 on tape and extremely soft. Avoids contact. Brandon Lloyd. Niners like those physical types. Seems he skipped voluntary off season workouts and there are some locker room issues. New Giants FO. Think they’re sending out a red flag. Chk out the comments. Wouldn’t give anything more than a 4th for him.

The #Jets are reportedly willing to trade the 10th pick for Deebo Samuel, per @TonyPauline pic.twitter.com/XpWgSYXA4Q

Let the bidding war begin.

Let the bidding war begin.

If the Jets do something like 10th overall, their second rounder and a day two pick next season, I think that’d be a hard offer to beat. Then again, there are a couple other franchises that might not have as high a pick but more ammo to offer.

 

[SLAB]

Cashing out on Samuel’s incredible wideback season is so money. Dude doesn’t want to play like that anymore and in his past true receiver season he went >400 yards and 1 TD.

I’m almost as over Tyshun as I am Jim. But at least we’ll get something for one of them!

i wouldn’t even need a day two pick next yr. 10 and their first second this yr would be enough. There are three wrs that i think could be plug and plays that the niners could snatch up at 10 (London though he’d be more of a power foward type of wr), in the second (watkins, dynamic in Shanahans system), and in the third (velvus jones jr; prob the closes deebo clone in the draft, but old)

I could make it simpler for you - its f$#$n American football - do you wanna play or not?

I dont really like it, but if its the state of things, so be it. A top 10 1st-R-pick would be more than fair; additionals would be gravy. They could feasibly go for a top WR in the draft to replace immediately if they like or a top corner and go for WR at 2nd R for replacement. Or OL.

Deebo going so overboard that now teams are probably looking at whether they should trade for him or not due to maturity issues.

 

[Tetsujin]

Great, now you’ll have 2 RBs tha are better than the one with the max contract.

All good. Deebo is being a bully. Can the Niners trade him before Friday? #10 n #35.

I'll be honest, I'd just take #10 and call it a day if it came down to it. Getting a 1st and NOT paying Deebo $25 mil sounds just fine with me if he doesn't want to be here.

Obviously try to get near the Tyreek haul, but I wouldn't pass on trading him if we get the chance.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Is it just me or does it seem like the draft should have happened already? The NFL off season seems to be dragging

 

[Telemachus]

The irony is he’s about to get traded to the Sacramento Kings.
