49ers | Four grabs for De'Zhaun Stribling Fri Aug 21, 04:45 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling caught four of his five targets for 46 yards during the preseason game against the Los Angeles Chargers Thursday, Aug. 20.
| Footballguys view: Stribling is getting into some rare territory catching so many passes in such a short time on the field. Dez Bryant, Demaryius Thomas (RIP), and Jeremy Maclin are the other players to catch 10 or more passes in 20 minutes of game time in two preseason games to date. Stribling won't have this large of a role to begin the season, but he is showing the ability to change fantasy leagues this year if injuries put him in a central role. His ADP is going up into the single digit rounds, and it should be. |
Vikings | Justin Jefferson gaining comfort level Fri Aug 21, 04:45 PM
Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson said he is building better chemistry with QB Kyler Murray now that Murray has been named the starter and is no longer splitting reps. 'So now he has it and the connection is definitely growing,' Jefferson said. 'Work needs to be done, but it comes with time and comes with just coming out here and just working together.'
| Footballguys view: 'Work needs to be done' is balancing 'the connection is definitely growing' in this statement. Of course, if you have Jefferson, you're playing him Week 1 vs. Green Bay, but it sounds like we should temper expectations early on, if we hadn't already given Murray's history re: creating fantasy value for wide receivers. |

Texans | Houston considering Kayshon Boutte? Fri Aug 21, 04:16 PM
New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte is believed to be a possible trade target for the Houston Texans, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: While this would be good for Boutte's playing time compared to New England, where he appears to be at the bottom of the depth chart even though he has been stacking good practices all summer, it still wouldn't be a plum fantasy spot in the run first Texans offense. Rashod Bateman was also mentioned as a possible trade target. The problem with both ideas is that Baltimore and New England see Houston as a rival for a Super Bowl berth, so they may not be keen on helping them adjust after losing a expected key contributor. |

| Footballguys view: Nabers avoided the PUP list to begin training camp, but he's not yet up to full speed according to HC John Harbaugh. So long as there are no setbacks, Nabers should be ready for Week 1. His current ADP is WR14 (3.09) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Link to story Eagles | Makai Lemon returns Thu Aug 20, 10:31 AM
Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, Aug. 20.
| Footballguys view: It's good to see the first-round pick out there for the Eagles. He's missed most of the offseason and training camp with this hamstring problem. Earlier reports suggested the team would be committed to getting Lemon the ball in a number of ways. Lemon has a current ADP of WR57 (10.08) in 12-team PPR leagues. We'll see if he can stay healthy and get ramped up before Week 1. |
Buccaneers | Jalen McMillan returns to practice Wed Aug 19, 06:33 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Jalen McMillan (leg) returned to practice on Tuesday, Aug. 18, but HC Todd Bowles did say McMillan won't play in Saturday's preseason game with the Kansas City Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: McMillan has some extra injury upside now that Emeka Egbuka has been diagnosed with a toe sprain. Hopefully McMillan can stay on the field and Egbuka will be full go for Week 1. McMillan's ADP is down in the 150s, which seems cheap for a third year receiver who is in a productive offense and has already shown that he can hang on Sundays. |

49ers | Mike Evans comes out of practice on Tuesday Wed Aug 19, 06:33 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR Mike Evans (left quad tightness) came out of practice on Tuesday. He was icing his quad and watched the remainder practice, according to HC Kyle Shanahan on Tuesday, Aug. 18.
| Footballguys view: Shanahan called it tightness and didn't indicate concern or any worry of a serious injury. This could have been precautionary, but Evans hasn't been durable in recent seasons and it's already his second injury issue of the summer. You can get Evans in the mid-late fifth round, so the possible reward that comes with being the #1 target in San Francisco balanced out that known and apparent injury risk. |
