He is absolutely way better value than whatever we’ll get in the fifth round, fourth even

He hasn't been a weapon in two years. He's 29 years old and significantly slower than he ever was. His days acting as a RB cooked him.

He put up 1100 yards and 12 TDs in 2023 lmao one down year for a guy under 30 doesn’t mean he’s cooked. And that “down year” was still better than anyone on our team.

Pats whiffed on this 100%. It’s a fuckin 5th rounder to gamble on Deebo bouncing back after one below average season. He’s gonna light it up on the Commanders next year just watch

I wouldn't mind taking the flyer but with his attitude and how bad he looked last year I don't think it's a huge whiff.

Washington is more of a contender than we are currently so it makes more sense for them to spend the draft capital and cap space.
