San Francisco 49ers

NFC West


As the consensus #207 overall player, Jeff Wilson Jr. is a reasonable pick at his ADP of 181. Projected to touch the ball 3.9 times per game (3.2 rushes and 0.7 receptions), it's a desperate situation if you're starting Wilson in fantasy. He's second on San Francisco's depth chart, behind Elijah Mitchell. San Francisco has the 16th-best running back schedule.

Tyrion Davis-Price is a fair value at his ADP of 197 as the consensus #220 overall player. Projected to carry the ball 3.0 times and catch 0.7 passes per game, it's a desperate situation if you're starting Davis-Price in fantasy. He's behind both Elijah Mitchell and Jeff Wilson Jr. on the running back chart in San Francisco. San Francisco has the 16th-best schedule for running backs.

Brandon Aiyuk is a fair value at his ADP of 97 as the consensus #78 overall player. Aiyuk is the second-best WR on the 49ers, behind Deebo Samuel. As the consensus #35 WR, he will be serviceable most weeks. He's projected to catch 62.0 receptions for 842 yards and 5.5 TDs, which is 32.8% of the total for WRs on the 49ers.

Ranked as the #11 QB, Trey Lance is a reasonable starter, but not one worth spending an early draft pick on. Lance is projected to earn 95.6 of his 315 fantasy points by rushing. That level of involvement in the 49ers' running game adds significant fantasy value. Projected for a 1.9 touchdown-to-interception ratio, he doesn't carry much interception risk.
