BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall will surely be more involved in the second half of the season after Brandon Aiyuk (knee) tore his ACL a couple of weeks ago. In two games without Aiyuk, Pearsall has caught seven passes for 59 yards while also playing at least 55% of the team's offensive snaps in both contests.
"I look at myself as a big playmaker so when those opportunities come up, go out there and execute... make an impact on the game." - Ricky Pearsall

However, Jauan Jennings (hip) was not active for either of those two games. So, it'll be interesting to see what the rookie's snap share will be like in Week 10 against the Buccaneers, especially with Jennings likely to play on Sunday.
As a result, Pearsall will be more of a flex option in 14-plus team leagues this weekend. He has only seen nine targets in his two games this season and will now compete with Deebo Samuel Sr., George Kittle, Jennings, and Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) for targets in Week 10. That makes the rookie only an option in deeper formats against the Buccaneers.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]
