I think with Deebo it's not a matter of comparing apples and oranges, it's oranges and tangerines. Deebo isn't a significant stretch the field type. He's a slot, gadget and return man. He's an excellent athlete and would appear to be a team player, so yes, I'd like to have seen him back, but only if he had a role to play and was worth the cost. He maybe has but isn't worth it, when we have (potential) slot and return guys on the roster. We needed a stretch the field guy to split receptions with Scary, and we had none. That's why Aiyuk was at least in the early conversations. Deebo is great but not what we needed, Aiyuk is potentially great but a nutcase. We know what we should be getting with Diggs and at least for now there's nothing to worry about off field. It's a one year deal. If Williams blossoms, it gives us options next year. Right now we have a legit #1 and #2, at least the potential for good if not great #3-5 and a very good TE. I'm glad he's here and looking forward to what can happen (cross fingers everyone stays healthy).

Aiyuk doesn't need a team, he needs therapy.
