I dunno.
Greystripe is a bit old to be deputy, though he's amazing. Brackenstar sounds good though cx
Brackenfur is only a few months younger than Graystripe, so if Graystripe is too old, Brackenfur is too. XD
I think there could have been a lot of other good choices for deputy, but I understand him picking Squirrelflight. She's probably the cat he knows the best and that knows him the best, and they counter each other well. You wouldn't want someone as deputy who would just roll over for everything, or agree with you too much. Plus, the other cats generally respect her. And since she wasn't his mate at the time, or for a while after, that definitely would not have been the reason.
