Wk15: Half-PPR Stick with Aiyuk over DJ Moore and Thielen?

Start/Sit
1

I was planning to start Aiyuk over DJ Moore and Thielen due to matchups, injuries and with Deebo being out.
If Brock Purdy is out, would you still start Aiyuk on Thursday night, over these guys?

Half-PPR?

Thanks!

As you said, Aiyuk is the ideal play, but only if Purdy starts. I wouldn’t play guessing games if Purdy is out. The 49ers could go to a strict run-first scheme in that case.

In the case of Purdy being out, I’d go with Thielen. Moore would still be dealing with the up and down play of Sam Darnold, while Thielen at least has a steady QB in Cousins.
