TE George Kittle, SF (1 Viewer)

Schefter:

Sources: 49ers are placing Pro Bowl TE George Kittle on injured reserve, meaning he now will miss at least the next four games. Kittle injured his hamstring during Sunday’s win over Seattle and now will miss games at New Orleans, vs. Atlanta, Jacksonville and at the Rams.

Bummer for the whole Niner offense.

Tonges or Farrell or don't bother?

Yeah man we are at just the end of week 1 and this is just a disaster already.

CMC and Pearsall should have some big weeks

I'd say don't bother unless you miss out on Fannin/Jennings/Strange or they are already all owned. Unless you're in a TE premium should, should have better options. Maybe Mayer on the chance Bowers injury causes him to miss time (I don't think there's been a definitive update on him yet).

Niners won't have a fantasy relevant TE. If I had to roster someone, it would probably be Brayden Willis who they are bringing up from the practice squad. Tonges had never caught a pass prior to last week and Farrell is a blocking TE who will leak out and get the occasional surprise reception.

I prefer Tonges to Farrell if I had to pick between the two. Tonges got a pair of looks in the red zone, turning one of them into a TD. Farrell is a better blocker, which is why he played more snaps than Tonges. However, Tonges ran a route on 50 percent of his snaps compared to 27 percent for Farrell. All that said, I agree with pinkstapler that looking elsewhere may be the better move, but Tonges should be a relatively inexpensive bet on flex consideration if you have space for him.

What is a fair price for Kittle in dynasty?
