Where Do I Draft Deebo Samuel For Fantasy Football?

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel is one of the very few players who can single-handedly win games for fantasy managers over the course of a football season. Samuel is used as a dual-threat option by Kyle Shanahan, and given how creative the 49ers get with their plays, the 27-year-old star often finds himself in a great position to succeed.

He signed a three-year, $71.55 million contract extension ahead of last season, but his on-field achievements were insufficient to justify the franchise's faith in him. As a result, he has slipped in the eyes of fantasy football managers.

In this article, we will discuss which round will be the best to draft Samuel for your fantasy football teams, as well as an in-depth look at what we can expect from Samuel in 2023.

Which Round Should You Draft Deebo Samuel?

Deebo Samuel is coming off a season where he had 56 receptions for 632 yards and scored five touchdowns in 13 games. He also rushed for 232 yards and two rushing touchdowns on 42 carries. The 49ers star missed games last year due to a thigh sprain, an ankle sprain, and a knee MCL sprain.

On the basis of it, he currently has a third-round ADP. It will be wise to get Samuel in the third or fourth round since he has the potential to have a monster season for his team. Brock Purdy will likely be the starting quarterback for the team, and even if he gets hurt, Sam Darnold and Trey Lance will be there to carry the load.

As a result, Samuel's performance won't be affected by injuries to his quarterback, and if he stays healthy, there is no denying that he will rack up significant points for fantasy managers.

Deebo Samuel is Motivated To Bounce Back From a Tough Season

Deebo Samuel himself knows that he didn't play well last season. With what we have heard from Shanahan throughout the offseason, the South Carolina product cannot wait to prove his critics wrong.

The 49ers season ended in a heartbreaking manner, which is why their top players like Samuel, George Kittle, Brandon Aiyuk, and Christian McCaffrey will leave no stone unturned to lead their franchise to a Super Bowl appearance. A motivated 49ers team will result in great production for all the fantasy managers across the world.
