2020 Outlook

Depth Chart

I was among those who thought Emmanuel Sanders' career might be over after his Achilles tear in 2018. To tear your Achilles when you're over 30 years old, at a position that requires such quick cutting and change of direction, seemed to be the end of the road. Sanders proved me and many others wrong by coming back only 8 months later, showing the same speed and explosiveness he has built his career on.

He played half of 2019 with the Broncos and the other half with the 49ers, and produced 66 receptions for 869 yards and 5 touchdowns (despite having to switch teams and learn a new playbook halfway through the season). He is now 33 years old but all the Saints need him to do is be a dependable second option who can make defenses pay if they dedicate too much attention to Michael Thomas. That is something this team has been missing, and if he can provide even similar numbers to last year, the offense should be helped considerably.

Sanders is an excellent route-runner who specializes in running routes from the slot. That should be a perfect addition to this offense, and I look for him to be a very steady contributor. Even though I don't see him producing 1,000 yards or 8 touchdowns, he should provide a solid floor and be a great weekly flex option for fantasy teams.

News From The Past 90 Days

Deebo Samuel suffers broken foot, surgery today
Jones fracture
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Jun 18, 2:52 pm

#49ers WR Deebo Samuel suffered a broken foot on Tuesday during a throwing session with teammates in Nashville and will be having surgery today, I’m told. It is a Jones fracture, and he should be able to be on the field early in the season. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)

FFToday's Take: Not good. Samuel could easily miss the next three months which makes him a candidate to begin the season on the PUP list. The 49ers lost Emmanuel Sanders to free agency and now sport a depth chart of Kendrick Bourne, Brandon Aiyuk, Jalen Hurd and Dante Pettis. Samuel finished as the WR31 in PPR leagues last season.
