BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR1/High-End WR2
ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. isn't entering Week 11's game against the Seattle Seahawks with an injury designation. He's fully healthy and ready to go. There's no reason to bench him, considering his massive upside and, you know, what he did to the Seahawks in Week 6.

Or, you know, one of the other times he faced Seattle.
In honor of Seattle week:

Starting to notice a pattern? According to Statmuse, Samuel has caught 43 passes on 58 targets for 744 receiving yards and four receiving TDs and rushed 16 times for 118 yards and three rushing scores against the rival Ocean Birds all-time. He's dominated them and likely knows them better than most other WRs in the league.
It's not been a fair competition so far, and SEA's defense hasn't exactly been lockdown vs WRs this season. They've allowed the seventh-most PPR fantasy points to the position so far in 2024. So it's a pretty solid matchup for the sixth-year vet.
