That’s more than I thought they would get. To unload his contract, I thought they would have to trade something like Deebo plus a 5th to get back a 7th.

The reason these trades do not yield much is because the players bring their high-priced contracts with them. There have been a couple of such trades in recent years where the teams had to pay other teams in draft picks to unload expensive contracts.
