Trey Lance

Lance is expected to be the new starting QB in San Francisco after spending his rookie campaign learning the ropes behind Jimmy Garoppolo. The 2021 third-overall pick has played significant snaps in three NFL games and showed flashes of his ability as a passer (two passing TDs twice) and rusher (161 yards on 31 carries in the three games). Lance is young (22) and extremely inexperienced (one full season as a college starter), but his combination of size, arm talent and elite rushing ability supplies him with major fantasy upside. Lance has some obvious risk, but he has a good supporting cast and is a major breakout candidate well worth mid-round consideration.
