Deebo Samuel has requested to be traded out of San Francisco adding another headline to what has been the craziest NFL off-season we have watched. From Tom Brady’s retirement and his prompt return to the quarterback movement and the wave of talent joining the AFC, this off-season hasn’t disappointed.

In what is the final year of his deal Samuel is demanding his way out of San Francisco looking for a payday at his next landing spot. One can hardly blame Samuel considering the uncertainty in San Francisco and the season he is coming off of.

Deebo was the driving force in San Francisco’s playoff run, one that was a dropped interception away from a Super Bowl appearance.  Seemingly any time the team needed a big play on offense the ball found its way into Deebo’s hands and he delivered.

Any team that trades for Deebo is getting one of the five best receivers in football and a player they can build their offense around. With this in mind, three clear teams emerge as fits for a player that is going to need a new deal. Limiting the number of teams that have the cap to pay the star receiver leaving these three teams as the clear best options.
