Raheem Mostert: 2020 Dynasty Profile

Raheem Mostert should be atop all of the “sell high” lists across the industry. His current ADP alone is a sign to test the market. Reports indicate Jerick McKinnon is healthy and back in the fold while Tevin Coleman still looms in the shadows. I personally want no part of this backfield. A 49er’s running back played more than 70% of the offensive snaps just once last year. Let’s not forget who Kyle Shanahan is and how he utilizes running backs. Remember Jeff Wilson scored two touchdowns in Week 1 and was “the guy”. Mostert had just a 32.2% opportunity share (total team running back carries plus targets) in 2019. Shanahan runs a running back by committee offense and that isn’t about to change for the Journeyman Raheem Mostert in 2020.

Redraft Mock Analysis

PPR Redraft Mock Analysis

I recently took part in a 1QB, PPR redraft mock with eleven other members of the DFF crew. I was very happy with the results, so I’d like to break down my team and my decision-making process throughout the draft. I entered the draft planning to select RBs in the first three rounds before addressing any other positions. This strategy, which I broke down in great detail here, is one I’ve been implementing whenever possible this offseason. I expected to target WR in the middle rounds while waiting to get my QB and TE late, which worked out perfectly.

Redraft Team Focus: 49ers

In this article series, I’m analyzing every one of the 32 NFL teams and all of their redraft-relevant fantasy assets. It’s a long project, but I want to make sure that you, the reader, have something you can refer to for every team. For each article, I’ll split up the fantasy assets into three categories: high-end assets, usable contributors, and dart throws. Let’s jump into the 49ers.

Unstarted Business: Jerick McKinnon Finally Ready to Roll?

Kyle Shanahan has four running backs under contract that have played for him over the past two years. However, it’s the running back who hasn’t played football in two years that he’s most excited to see in 2020 – Jerick McKinnon. At this point, McKinnon has reached post-post hype sleeper; he’s forgotten about in most leagues and his value couldn’t be lower. He’s probably sitting on most dynasty waiver wires and for good reason. He’ll be 28 years old in May and hasn’t stepped on a football field in the last two seasons. So why care about him?

The Case FOR and AGAINST Drafting Jerick McKinnon

The Case FOR and AGAINST drafting Jerick McKinnon Just like the 1849 Gold Rush that the 49ers are named for, Jerick McKinnon carries the promise of glory and prosperity for San Francisco. But underneath the glitter and shine, the threat of coming away empty-handed lingers as well. So, like the prospectors of old, you have

Is Duke Johnson the next Jerick Mckinnon?

Photo by Jason Miller/Getty Images As most dynasty players know, one of the best moves you can make is being ahead of the curve on a player and acquiring a player cheap, before their value skyrockets.

Cap Fakes and Repercussions: Jerick McKinnon

Listening to a recent @Capology101  podcast while driving the other day, an idea for an article sprung to mind. Or I completely ripped off their premise and ran with it. I say tomato, you say theft. With the madness that is NFL Free Agency sometimes the devil that hides in the details often goes overlooked.
