SF WR Deebo Samuel - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Arizona Cardinals

Deebo Samuel was likely eased back into action last week as he came back from a calf injury. He still totaled 72 yards on five touches. He should quickly get back into form and that could come this week against the Cardinals, which should be a favorable matchup against a bottom-half pass defense,

SF WR Deebo Samuel - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. New England Patriots

Deebo Samuel is questionable for Sunday, possibly missing just one game with a calf injury. If he returns, he'll face a Patriots team allowing the 6th-most passing yards per game (244.3) and is tied for 6th in EPA/pass allowed. It may be best to have Samuel in your flex, just in case he is inactive. The 49ers kickoff at 4:05, so the official word will come at about 2:35.

SF WR Deebo Samuel - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Minnesota Vikings

Deebo Samuel saw nine targets and rushed the ball eight times in Week 1 against the Jets, totaling 77 yards and a receiving touchdown. The 49ers have always liked using Samuel in the rushing game and that could continue even more going forward as Christian McCaffrey continues to miss time with calf and Achilles injuries. He gets the Vikings this week who are feeling good after a 28-6 win over the Giants but will have their work cut out for them this week against Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk. With the added rushing value, Samuel sits No. 3 on our wide receiver board for Week 2.

SF WR Deebo Samuel - 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

Deebo Samuel is coming off another top-10 fantasy season after catching 60 passes for 892 yards and seven touchdowns plus rushing for five more. Samuel had three games with over 100 receiving yards. Samuel also still adds some rushing value and is always a threat in the red zone -- Samuel had 17 red-zone targets, 12 catches, and three receiving touchdowns.

Fantasy Downside

Samuel's rushing value has gone down a bit since Christian McCaffrey joined the 49ers. He was also just 42nd in the league with 89 targets -- he had seven games with 4 or fewer targets. As our John Paulsen notes, Samuel has to be incredibly efficient to keep up his WR1-type production.

2024 Bottom Line

Samuel remains one of the more versatile players in the league and continues to be very efficient in an explosive offense. Even with all the weapons around him, there's enough for Samuel to continue making a case as a fantasy WR1. Grab him in the third round of your draft.

SF WR Deebo Samuel - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Washington Commanders

Deebo Samuel struggled on Monday night against the Ravens, catching four balls and receiving two carries for a total of 54 scrimmage yards. Still, he was targeted 12 times, so there’s no reason to be concerned about his role in the offense. The Ravens are just very good defensively and the 49ers struggled to put up points.

This week, Samuel should rebound against a vulnerable Washington defense that ranks 29th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. Samuel’s eight touchdowns over the previous four games make him a must-start as a vital member of the explosive San Francisco offense. In a great matchup, we have him ranked as a high-end WR1 option for the fantasy championships.

SF WR Deebo Samuel - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Baltimore Ravens

Deebo Samuel continues to find the end zone. Against the Cardinals last week, he gained 59 yards on four catches and a carry and scored two touchdowns. He now has 11 touchdowns on the season, and a ridiculous eight in the last four games combined. Despite being on a team with a lot of offensive mouths to feed, Samuel seems to be getting consistent touches. He has at least

This week, Samuel faces a Baltimore defense that ranks seventh in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. With the current stretch he’s on and his versatility, expect the 49ers to manufacture ways to get him the ball. Despite the tough matchup, we have him ranked as an elite option once again. Expect another busy day for Samuel.

SF WR Deebo Samuel - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Arizona Cardinals

Deebo Samuel had another monster outing last week against the Seahawks, catching seven of his nine targets for 149 yards and a touchdown, and adding another touchdown on the ground. Samuel has now found the end zone six times over his last three games and he’s playing as well as anyone in the league right now.

This week, Samuel faces an Arizona defense that ranks 20th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. In a nice matchup, expect Samuel to continue to dazzle. There’s no way you’re sitting him this week and we have him ranked as a low-end WR1 option.
