Fantasy Football Player Notes

After their loss to the Falcons, and immediately going on Bye, it was easy to forget how good this 49ers team is. Destroying the Raiders, the 49ers started hot and never looked back. CMC took full advantage of the soft matchup, rushing for 68 yards and a score as well as catching two passes for 19 yards and a score. Brock Purdy looked in full control of this offense and this week they take on an abysmal Cowboys defense. Although the Cowboys are supposed to be strongest against the run, they are allowing the second-most rushing yards and fifth-most fantasy points to the RB position. CMC is a high-end RB1 going into Week 10.

Over the last two games, Kaelon Black has averaged 11.5 rushing attempts and 66.5 rushing yards while logging a 35.3% snap rate. He could easily see 10-12 touches again this week as a decent flex play. Black is a touchdown-dependent flex. He has almost no passing game role with only six targets this season. Black has posted a solid 2.43 yards after contact per attempt and a 15% missed tackle rate. Over their last five games, Dallas has allowed the 14th-highest explosive run rate, the second-most rushing yards over expectation per attempt, and the fourth-most yards after contact per attempt.
