polecatt 397 Posted June 18, 2020 He was supposed to have a break out season. Looks like that's a little less likely now. His fantasy stock will plummet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is good value in a 12 team or more league. He was also a rookie in the exact situation you described. I would argue that Aiyuk would have been in an even better situation than Deebo was. Before the injury, Aiyuk was typically available at the end of mock drafts, right in the spot known as a 'flier'. Now, it is likely one will have to spend a much more valuable pick to guarantee his services on your team. As for 'multiple options ahead of him' who are you referring to? There is George Kittle, and...…??? That is what is known as a singular option ahead of him. HTH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Samuel is back before the season THAT would make a difference, but then Aiyuk could once again be had on the cheap. However, he is very unlikely to be back before the season and will most likely be on the PUP. I am not sure where you are getting your info from: Quote Dr. Robert Anderson is performing surgery Thursday to repair the dreaded Jones fracture. Jones fractures can cause all sorts of complications moving forward, but hopefully Samuel's recovery goes off without a hitch. Still, the 12-16 weeks timetable likely means a trip to the reserve/PUP list to start the season for Samuel. That would cost him at least the first six weeks of the season should the 2020 schedule go on as planned As for Bourne and especially Taylor, Neither of those Jaggy WR's would change my assessment of the far superior Aiyuk.

AxeElf 787 Posted June 19, 2020 The 12-16 week timetable is new to me; I'd heard 2-3 months, which would have made him available by early September. Broken bones themselves don't usually take more than 6-8 weeks, so there must be something going on with this one that I don't understand if it could mean him missing up to 4 months. 2 hours ago, jrokh said: As for Bourne and especially Taylor, Neither of those Jaggy WR's would change my assessment of the far superior Aiyuk. In any case, I think it would be tough for a rookie to step in and outperform the other WRs on the team. In time, Aiyuk may be the best of them, but as a rookie, especially early in the season, I'd be looking to Bourne and Taylor instead. Bourne's goalline targets would probably lead me to lean toward him in non-PPR leagues, while Taylor was Garoppolo's favorite receiver in camp last year, so I'd look to him in PPR leagues.

Why Trent Taylor is Essential to the 49ers in 2020 Well now I kind of agree with you on Bourne since he is the value flyer you can get at the end of the draft. Aiyuk will be taken by someone before rd 10-12 are through. Which really was my point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With Hurd coming back it just seems there would be way too much distribution of targets. Maybe people are a little jaded by the insane efficiency we saw from multiple rookie receivers last year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,418 Posted June 29, 2020 He’s been a great value in mocks.  Yeah who wants to own a wr2 in non ppr and a wr3 in ppr, that’s would just be silly.   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was ranked 26th in non ppr (yes I know your league is 14tms, but for sake of debate you always want to talk about 12tm unless otherwise stated.) and while that indeed is close, he needed 150 rush yds and 3 rush tds to sniff that. Not exactly easy for a wr to do. He could still break out of course this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That Is the point of this thread. He broke his foot, it's a Jones fracture... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,418 Posted July 1, 2020 Reports I’ve been seeing say he should be back in a couple of months back when he had his surgery, of course if that’s not the case then he won’t be able to play, and that would decrease is value at the start of the season, and I read that his teammate Taylor missed the whole season with the same issue But I’m thinking he’ll be ready to go, and that’s the bases of my post.  Now if he does miss the first six games, his total points won’t be a wr2 or 3, but his avg of those last eight games will be, and I just did two 12 team non ppr drafts, he went tenth round and mid ninth , now that’s great value, getting a wr2 -3 as a wr4 in most cases, I’m buying , What Says You? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some of the less evolved species have not yet gotten the memo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
