I think he's a good, young ascending player who is a game-changer on special teams.

I've been one of Dexters biggest supporters on this site and would love to have him back, but this is an AMAZING class of available receivers both in free agency and the draft...the depth of available talent at the position this offseason should cause guys like Dexter to get a lot less than he probably thinks he will.
If we can ink the kid for 2-2.5 million per year, I'd bite...otherwise this is a time I'd look for a bargain receiver in free agency and come right back and draft another one in the third or fourth.
That's how to better utilize the limited funds the team has to build the roster.
He runs great routes, has the best hands on the team, Alex Smith trusts him, he is a productive returner and plays an important role on this team, but the probowl appearance probably priced him out of our range.

But don't tell me he is any kind of playmaker, on offense or as a returner.

His deep speed prohibits him from being a game breaker, but the guy absolutely made a lot of plays last year.
