Week 2 Recap
Last week was an interesting week. After falling behind early due to Jayden Daniels and not having Chris Godwin, the Sunday Morning update sneaked by for a profitable week. This gets the primary lineup to 2-0 on the season. I wrote about it last week, but it was one of the least skill weeks in quite some time based on Kupp, Mason, Deebo, and Breece Hall all being over 50% rostered. It was surprising to see Jordan Mason not 100% rostered, but instead around 80% rostered in most of the 100-team 50/50’s. This is encouraging for future weeks as there still seems to be some edge even in what should be the easiest weeks.
Total points scored- 136.54
- QB Jayden Daniels- WAS $7,900- 13.44
- RB Breece Hall, NYJ, $8,500- 20.9
- RB Jordan Mason, SF, $5,500- 19.9
- WR Cooper Kupp, LAR, $7,700- 5.7
- WR Rashee Rice, KC, $6,900- 16.0
- WR Deebo Samuel Sr., SF, $7,300- 17.0
- TE Trey McBride, ARI, $6,200- 15.7
- Flex RB James Conner, ARI, $6,500- 21.9
- TD Denver, $3,400- 6.0
What went right:
- The lineup largely avoided any landmines besides Cooper Kupp who was 80% rostered in most 50/50’s.
What went wrong:
- Switching out Malik Nabers. Nabers was outstanding finishing as the third highest performer at the wide receiver position. Nabers had 10 receptions for 127 yards and a touchdown last week.
- Jayden Daniels was a tough one. The team kicked seven field goals, so it’s hard to call it a bad play, as if one or two of those are touchdowns, his day is more than acceptable.
Injuries Create Opportunity:
The 49ers are a mess. San Francisco will be without Christian McCaffrey who is on IR, George Kittle with a hamstring, and Deebo Samuel Sr. with a calf injury. At $6,500, Brandon Aiyuk is going to be one of the most popular wide receivers on this slate. Jauan Jennings also could be a fine punt play at $5,200, but you likely don’t need to go that low on a week with significant value. Jordan Mason is interesting this week. He’s priced all the way up at $8,300, but the loss of George Kittle could actually Hurt Mason as Kittle is one of the league’s best blocking tight ends.
