De'Zhaun Stribling: 49ers rookie out at least a month

THE FACT. 49ers rookie receiver De'Zhaun Stribling will miss at least a month with a deltoid sprain in his ankle, NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reported Monday, Sept. 14. Stribling was hurt in the first quarter of San Francisco's season-opening win over the Rams in Melbourne. Per NFL.com, surgery is on the table but is not currently planned.

THE VERDICT. Redraft: drop him in anything shallower than 14 teams. A month out with a possible surgical tail is not worth a bench spot in a receiver room this deep. Dynasty: hold without hesitation, this is an ankle sprain rather than a structural problem and the second-round draft capital outlasts it. The actionable piece is the vacated snaps: Demarcus Robinson and Jacob Cowing both move up behind Mike Evans, and Robinson is the one already carrying a real role. Add Robinson where he is sitting free, 5% FAAB.
