Aldrick Robinson catches one pass in Week 1.

The former Falcon was targeted twice in the game and caught one for seven yards. He should have some good weeks this season but his role isn’t reliable enough to have him on your fantasy team.

Trent Taylor catches one pass in Week 1.

The rookie receiver had an eight-yard reception on his only target. He’s a dynasty hold, but not a fantasy option in standard leagues right now.

Marquise Goodwin gets six targets in Week 1.

The super fast receiver had three receptions for 21 yards in the game. Goodwin did have a drop on the first drive of the game, but there could’ve been some first-game jitters there. He’ll have some good weeks as the number two receiver with the Niners.

Christian McCaffrey handles 18 touches in his NFL debut.

McCaffrey rushed 13 times for 47 yards and caught five passes for 38 yards. He also lost a fumble on a screen pass that he tried doing too much with. The eighth-overall pick also worked as the team’s punt returner, and it’s clear the Panthers want to get him involved in a variety of ways. His presence on the field opened things up for everyone else, and if team’s continue to pay for that, McCaffrey will have more space to operate for himself. He’s an RB2 with a high floor and high upside in Week 2 against Buffalo for his first home game.

Jonathan Stewart sees 20 touches in Week 1 win.

Stewart rushed 18 times for 65 yards and caught two passes for 17 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown was a well-designed play using Christian McCaffrey as a decoy, allowing Stewart to have plenty of space to take a short screen pass for a red-zone score. The 30-year-old still showed he’s got quite a bit left in the tank, and even with McCaffrey around, he’s a good FLEX option. Carolina hosts the Bills in Week 2.

George Kittle catches five passes in Week 1.

The rookie tight end had 27 yards on his five receptions (six targets) against Carolina. He’s the clear number one tight end with San Fran, but there are probably better fantasy options than him in your lineup right now.

Pierre Garcon gets ten Week 1 targets.

Garcon had six receptions for 81 yards in his 49ers debut versus the Panthers. He looks the same as usual, flashing strong hands at the point of catch and running back-like ability after the catch. Garcon offers a high weekly floor in both standard and PPR leagues. He gets Seattle next Sunday, but he’s still at least a FLEX option in fantasy lineups.
