Brandon Aiyuk to the San Francisco 49ers: A Dream Pairing?

Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is the newest member of the San Francisco 49ers, slotting in as the 25th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Landing in San Francisco is a potential boon for Aiyuk's dynasty and fantasy outlook, given the lack of competition on the depth chart behind Deebo Samuel. One factor working against Aiyuk's near-term success his the core muscle surgery he had early April. Without a clear timetable for OTAs, however, it's possible he's afforded some extra recovery time as a rookie.

Aiyuk's Background

Aiyuk transferred to the Arizona State Sun Devils after two JUCO seasons, compiling a pedestrian 33-catch season as a junior.
