Fantasy Impact: The reports remain positive on McCaffrey ahead of training camp. The veteran running back missed most of last season due to bilateral Achilles tendinitis and a PCL sprain. The upside remains high for McCaffrey when he is on the field as the No. 1 overall running back in fantasy football. The risk is his injury history.

Fantasy Impact: Maiocco added it is "more likely" that Aiyuk lands on the PUP list to open training camp. He is continuing to work his way back from ACL and MCL injuries suffered early last season. He will miss at least the first four weeks of the season if he remains on the PUP list.

Fantasy Impact: Cowing got the opportunity with Brandon Aiyuk still rehabbing and Ricky Pearsall now battling a hamstring injury himself. The second-year receiver out of Arizona played a very limited role on the offense last season. He could see more snaps on offense this year to go along with a role as a returner on special teams. He remains a stash in dynasty leagues.

Jake Moody reportedly "changed his kicking style" this offseason. (Source: The Athletic)

Fantasy Impact: After a strong rookie season, Moody went just 24-of-34 last year in field goals including just 10-of-20 from 40 yards out and further. The 49ers brought in Greg Joseph for competition in training camp. Moody should still win the job unless he has a really poor summer.

Fantasy Impact: “I think, for me, being here and getting better at football, I don’t think that [missing time] was ever going to be a question for me,” Purdy said in an interview. He signed his five-year, $265 million extension one month into the offseason program for San Francisco.

George Kittle has signed a 4-year, $76.4 million deal with the 49ers. (Source: Ian Rapoport on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Kittle is coming off two consecutive 1,000-yard seasons as an integral piece of the 49ers offense. The contract will take him into his age-35 season and is likely his last big payday. He should continue to get peppered with targets in the 49ers offense now featuring Ricky Pearsall, Brandon Aiyuk, and Jauan Jennings on the outside.
