5 years agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel carries positive momentum into the Divisional Round matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. After a slow start, the rookie shined in his final eight games, surpassing 100 scrimmage yards or finding the end zone in seven contests. Samuel faces a tough challenge against the Vikings seventh-best pass defense by DVOA, but consistency has earned him WR3 fantasy value. Playing nearly every snap opposite of veteran wideout Emmanuel Sanders, Samuel has also factored into the rushing game, averaging 11.4 yards per tote with three touchdowns this season. Drafted as an electric dual threat and performing to expectations, Samuel will likely be a popular DFS candidate in his first-ever playoff game.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
