Where are we at with going into 2026 and beyond? The upside case is easy to see: first-round draft capital, Shanahan offense, and a possible path to a bigger role if/when Jauan Jennings leaves and Aiyuk already being gone. While banged up all year, he still flashed enough to stay interesting, averaging 14.7YPC on 36 catches for 528 yards last year. The concern is that the room suddenly feels a lot more crowded. The 49ers added Mike Evans and Christian Kirk, Kittle is still going to command targets when healthy again, and CMC is still heavily involved in the passing game. Pearsall also hasn’t posted the kind of underlying usage that screams future alpha yet. His target share and yards per route run have been decent, but not dominant. Then there’s the injury piece. He dealt with knee and ankle issues, including a re-aggravated PCL injury, and that matters for a player whose value depends on carving out a bigger role in a crowded offense. So, is he still a strong hold because of the talent, draft capital, and system upside, or is this the kind of player you move before the situation gets even murkier? submitted by /u/k1ngofk1cks [link] [comments]
