Ricky Pearsall is a potential bust and avoid in 2024 fantasy football rookie drafts. Read the fantasy football outlook for the new 49ers wide receiver.
DRAFT PICK: 1st Round (#31 Overall Pick)
TEAM: San Francisco 49ers
ROOKIE DRAFT ANALYSIS: Ricky Pearsall was a surprise Round 1 pick at thirty-one overall to the San Francisco 49ers, potentially signaling the end of either Brandon Aiyuk or Deebo Samuel’s time in the Bay Area. With so many mouths to feed in San Francisco, Pearsall won’t see consistent volume even if Aiyuk or Samuel is moved. If they both remain with the team, he won’t even be startable as a rookie thanks to immense target competition.

After spending five seasons in college, Pearsall is another example of a receiver who broke out late in his career. He only eclipsed 700 yards once - hitting 965 and four touchdowns as a super senior this past season at Florida. The landing spot might look juicy, but Pearsall's prospect profile could be a trap in upcoming rookie drafts.
