Washington Commanders WR Deebo Samuel has recorded 55 plays of at least 20 yards in the passing game over the last four years, which ranks 18th in the NFL during that time.
Huddle Up: Samuel should be a valuable option for Jayden Daniels this season and may have favorable matchups since Terry McLaurin on the other side. He should be considered a No. 3 or No. 4 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Washington Commanders WR Deebo Samuel agreed to a restructured contract, according to sources Wednesday, March 19. The new deal guaranteed $17 million of Samuel's previously non-guaranteed salary for the 2025 season. It also includes up to $3 million worth of incentives, bringing the potential total of the deal to $20 million.
Huddle Up: Samuel seems like a good fit for the Commanders as the No. 2 behind Terry McLaurin. Washington should find creative ways to get him the football closer to the line of scrimmage, but his volatile game still keeps him in the WR3 range entering the 2025 season.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel will be traded to the Washington Commanders in exchange for a fifth-round draft choice, according to sources. The trade will be official once the new league year begins.
Huddle Up: Samuel asked to a trade after the season, and the 49ers were able to find a deal they were willing to take. Ricky Pearsall should be more involved in the passing game next season with Samuel gone and can be a No. 3 receiver in some fantasy leagues.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel will be acquired by the Washington Commanders in exchange for a fifth-round draft choice, according to sources. The trade will be official once the new league year begins.
Huddle Up: Samuel will pair with Terry McLaurin as one of the better receiver duos in the NFL next season. He should see a good amount of targets each game and could also be involved in the running game. He can be considered a No. 2 or No. 3 receiver in fantasy leagues.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel probably will not be a target for the New England Patriots because he does not fit offensive coordinator Josh McDaniel's scheme, according to a source.
Huddle Up: The Patriots are in the market for a No. 1 receiver but will look for other options other than Samuels. Samuels likely will be playing for a new team in 2025 and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues no matter where he plays.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel may be on the move shortly, as the Washington Commanders and Houston Texans have shown "significant interest" in trading for him in recent days, according to sources. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos are among some of the other teams who have also checked in on Samuel.
Huddle Up: The Commanders make a ton of sense for multiple reasons. Not only is general manager Adam Peters a former 49ers executive, but Samuel's ability to dominate near the line of scrimmage would pair nicely with Terry McLaurin's ability to stretch the field. The Texans also have a need at receiver if Stefon Diggs does not return and have ties to Samuel as head coach DeMeco Ryans used to coach San Francisco's defense. With that said, Samuel would not serve as a No. 1 receiver for any of the four teams mentioned and will probably experience a drop in fantasy value as a result of leaving Kyle Shanahan's offense.

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel is not believed to be a trade target for the Denver Broncos this offseason, according to the Denver Gazette's Chris Tomasson.
Huddle Up: The Broncos probably will look to add to their receiver corps this offseason, but Samuel does not appear to be on their list. Samuel likely will be playing for a new team next season and can be at least a No. 3 fantasy receiver in most leagues if healthy.

The San Francisco 49ers may consider releasing WR Deebo Samuel before his option bonus is due March 22, and designating him as a post-June 1 cut, according to Dan Graziano of ESPN.com. Under this scenario, the 49ers would have a dead cap hit of approximately $10.75 million in 2025 and about $20.8 million in 2026.
Huddle Up: At this point, it would be difficult for the 49ers to trade Samuel, because they would be on the hook for $31.55 million in dead money cap charges for the 2025 season if they traded him within the next month. However, if Samuel was dealt after March 22, the dead cap hit would skyrocket to $47 million. Regardless of where he is playing next season, Samuel should have a major role in the offense and can be viewed as a WR3 option or better in fantasy leagues.
