Interesting hypothetical for Deebo Samuel

Look at how Chase is built.  He could be just as good as Deebo running the ball if he played in the same system.

Not saying Deebo is not a great player.  Not saying he would not be an upgrade over Boyd.  But it would be a ridiculous waste of resources (draft capitol + salary) for only a slight upgrade.

Which is why I said, "He's a great player that can play all over the field. He's the kind of player that a team can design a lot of plays around that catch a defense off guard."

And also why I said,"That said, yeah it is fun to think about what he could contribute but it would not be worth the cost.  "
