Ray_T 591 Posted October 9, 2021 well, it looks like his stock has dropped somewhat. I just saw him traded to someone for Devante Parker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nobody 2,042 Posted October 9, 2021 If you can get him for Devante Parker value, I'd say, yes, you should buy low if you have room to wait for Deebo to get hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Simms 11 127 Posted October 9, 2021 I’d want him over Parker for the upside. Kittle is out, could be a good week for him. If Kittle, Debo and Aiyuk are all going I’d not expect much consistency until the inevitable injuries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 9, 2021 Parker and Aiyuk about the same. Aiyuk might not be the biggest bust to date, but he’s on the list for many. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

handbanana 47 Posted October 9, 2021 Especially with Kittle out and the 9ers needing to throw to stay in the game, now is a great time to pickup Aiyuk. I’m considering dropping E Sanders for him in one league and A Green in another… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serenity Now 44 Posted October 9, 2021 I’d take him if I could trade away my drop candidate for him, but that’s about it. Kittle wasn’t doing much so not sure how that opens up Aiyuk to do a lot more than he’s been doing. I don’t think switching to lance helps either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kittle was averaging 7 targets a game. Some of those will likely go to Aiyuk. The 3 games Kittle will have to miss at minimum are Zona, Indy and Chicago, all bottom third pass defenses. Not saying Aiyuk will erupt like last year, but now is the time to get him, before his value shoots up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 9, 2021 This is the same Niners wr named Aiyuk that some where drafting as a low wr1? And a high wr2.? Yeah I would say after four games he’s been a bust, he went from Avg 10 points per game last season to 4 this season, if you drafted him and still own him how do you see it ? ( don’t draft a te until double digit rounds , just a simple reminder to those that draft the Kittle) I would expect Aiyuk target share to rise. If they don’t , oh boy. I wouldn’t give much for him. I want to current owners in my three leagues to keep waiting for that explosion to happen , I don’t now think he’ll match last season, if you can find what I said about him during the summer it matches what I said today.

I’m fine buying low on him but I won’t give up much for him. Until Samuel gets hurt or I see something, he’s a borderline cut candidate . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you actually read what I said as you can see above " Some of those will likely go to Aiyuk". You aren't really fine with buying low on him if you have to wait till you see something first. Buying low implies getting him before the rise in value. Waiting means you would have to pay more, so not buying low at all... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would someone trade a guy who's about to increase his target share for someone they could get on the wire? What you are really saying is if someone dropped him you would consider cutting someone else to pick him up. Not the same thing as buying low. HTH... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, he’s little above waiver wire to me that’s buying low at this point. There’s very little that points to him being viable at this point. Hoping he gets an extra 3 targets a game doesn’t change much in my view.our version of low on him is just different I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 10, 2021 Weeks two and four Aiyuk had a combine 5 targets and produced 2.1 combine ff points non of course. Week three he had 6 targets produced 10 ff points non ppr of course, so I think those extra three targets might make a difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

polecatt 403 Posted October 10, 2021 I don't know if he's gonna pick it up. There may only be enough room for one good fantasy WR on the 49ers, and that's Deebo. Unless Trey Lance starts and he favors Aiyuk, I don't see it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

makindollaz 40 Posted October 11, 2021 Had high hopes for him…drafted him in 2 $ leagues, and held onto him despite a number of trade offers in a keeper league. At this point he’s permanently on my bench unless he can put up a few double digit point games in a row. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless Trey Lance starts and he favors Aiyuk, I don't see it well, after what we saw this week, I question if any WR is worth holding if Lance is at the helm of this ship. the good news is that Garoppolo will be back soon. it does not look like Lance is ready to take over yet.

Ray_T 591 Posted October 15, 2021 aftter the bye, Garoppolo should be back. I think the Aiyuk breakout should happen now. his replacement hasnt exactly lit it up so far. nobody not named Samuel or Kitttle has put up more than 50 yards receiving. At some point they have to go back to him. My guess is it needs to happen soon. I'm not suggesting you start him, but if you can get him cheap (or on waivers) you sit him on the bench until that breakout comes. if Shanny is like his old man, he likes to tear players down and build em back up. so Im guessing he will bring him, play him, and then say he turned him around with good coaching.(even if the coaching had nothing to do with it) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ray_T 591 Posted November 4, 2021 usually its obvious when the right time is. I wouldnt start him yet unless you are in a pinch and have no other choice. I personally like to see my breakout candidate have at least one and possibly 2 good weeks under his belt before starting him. But if desperate for a good play and none can be had elsewhere, hes as good a gamble as anyone out there. At least hes getting the looks now. I think we are close. he got 7 targets last week. Mediocre week, but better than what we have seen. I suspect it happens soon. If he breaks out it will be the next 2-3 weeks or not at all. I know Shanny can be stubborn and thats what makes the situation a bit more scary than typical. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Byrdman5 104 Posted November 4, 2021 Things haven’t really fell his way. Doghouse first 2 weeks. Then he had a ok week 3 with 4 catches for 37 yards and a TD. Then Garoppolo was injured for week 4 and 5. Bye week 6. Bad weather game week 7. Week 8 was ok 4 for 45 yards and a defender made a nice play in the RZ to prefent him for a TD. I think he is a good buy low because it will just cost waiver fodder. im holding him like I held Juju last year after everyone was like cut his ass, but he ended up putting up wr2/3 numbers.

weepaws 2,460 Posted November 5, 2021 D Samuel is great trade bait if you own him and you need a rb. Ive seen some post that Kupp won’t be able to keep up His production going forward. Kupp might not , but based on Qb play he has a much better chance than D Samuel does. Right now D Samuel stock is soaring , and the chances that it starts to lower going forwards I think is very high, if one needs a rb 1-2 i would see what one could get for D Samuel. Thanks.
