BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~120 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~137
ANALYSIS: The San Fransisco 49ers gave up a ton of assets to move up to the third pick in the 2021 draft to select quarterback Trey Lance out of North Dakota State. There will be competition for the starting job between Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo, but it seems that the rookie taking over at some point is inevitable. With a ton of weapons in the 49ers offense, including wide receivers Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel, as well as tight end George Kittle, Lance has the opportunity to be a viable streaming option when he takes over the starting role.
Mobile quarterbacks are very valuable to fantasy managers, as rushing yards heighten the floor and the ceiling at the position. Lance showed his dual-threat ability by putting up 1,100 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns on the ground in his 2019 collegiate season. In a run-heavy San Francisco offense, Lance can make up for the potential low passing volume with his own legs. With a current ADP of 136, Lance could be a steal for fantasy managers when the fantasy playoffs approach. The 49ers play the Bengals, Falcons, Titans, and Texans to finish off the fantasy season.
