It is assumed that Deebo Samuel's reunion with the 49ers is because of injuries to other prominent receivers on the team. Because Samuel is familiar with the offense, he immediately becomes an intriguing late Fantasy pick as a quality bench option. In 2024 with the Niners he averaged just 10.2 PPR points on 5.4 targets per game, both five-year lows. But with opportunities available in the pass game (and maybe even a little in the run game), Samuel can achieve a little bit more for managers in 2026, even at age 30. Further evidence of that can be found in his 2025 stats in Washington, when he averaged 11.8 PPR points on 6.2 targets per game, including an outstanding five-game stretch to begin the season (17.7 PPR points on 7.6 targets per game). As long as he gets a shot at regular playing time in San Francisco, which seems likely, Samuel will be an easy click in Round 8 or later.
