Juszczyk carried the ball one time for a yard and caught both of his targets for 10 yards in Thursday's 34-3 win over Oakland.
EDGE Analysis
Juszczyk failed to haul in a pass for the first time this season last week against the Cardinals, but he got back in the receiving column Thursday. Despite his involvement in the passing game, the fullback's production has tailed off after flashing some big-play ability earlier in the year, leaving him off the fantasy radar heading into next Monday's matchup with the Giants.

Juszczyk was targeted once during Sunday's 18-15 loss to Arizona, but was unable to come down with the catch. He gained 10 yards on two carries
EDGE Analysis
Juszczyk had a big 87-yard day against Arizona in Week 5, but was unable to repeat on Sunday. The fullback did have his first multiple-carry game of the season, but recorded 30 or fewer yards for the third straight week. He remains a sometimes-viable receiver out of the backfield, but his production doesn't come often enough to make him worth playing Thursday, even against a middle-of-the-road Oakland pass defense, which is surrendering 270 receiving yards per game.

Juszczyk finished with one carry for minus-five yards and caught two of three passes for 18 yards in Sunday's 39-10 loss to the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
With at least two targets in every game this season, Juszczyk touches the ball more frequently than most fullbacks around the league, but his fantasy upside remains fairly low outside of deep PPR formats. He's only surpassed 50 receiving yards in two of the 49ers' seven games and has found the end zone just once.

Juszczyk caught all three of his targets for 30 yards in Monday's loss to Green Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Juszczyk was unable to match last week's season-high of 75 yards, but his three receptions ranked fourth among all San Francisco receiving options Monday. The 27-year-old is averaging 2.8 receptions and 37.8 yards per game this season. Those numbers are exceptional for a fullback, but lacking in terms of a standard-league running back when you factor in the lack of carries (just one carry through six weeks).

Juszczyk carried the ball once for 12 yards and hauled in six of seven targets for 75 yards against the Cardinals on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Juszczyk's carries, receptions and total yardage all were season highs. The fullback's uptick in production was due in large part to a game script which saw the 49ers run 88 offensive plays. While "Juice" is unlikely to see this sort of usage on a weekly basis, he is clearly a part of the team's passing gameplan with 14 receptions, 197 yards and a touchdown through five games.

Juszczyk hauled in two passes (four targets) for 38 yards and a touchdown in a 38-27 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The majority of Juszczyk's production came on a well-executed play action fake that allowed the fullback to end up wide open for a 35-yard score. The 27-year-old has yet to log a carry this year, but he is proving to be a sneaky weapon in the passing game with 107 yards on six receptions (10 targets).

Juszczyk caught three of four targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 30-27 win over Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
The 49ers have been pretty balanced distributing the football through two weeks, George Kittle leads the squad with 13 targets, but five others -- including Juszczyk -- have at least six. That's pretty good exposure for fullback, but -- even with that level of involvement -- he probably doesn't have enough opportunities to be a week-to-week factor. He has topped 60 total yards in a game just twice in his career, both in 2017.

Juszczyk only caught one pass Sunday, but it went for 56 yards in a loss to Minnesota. He did not receive a carry.
EDGE Analysis
Juice put his route-running and receiving skills on display, running a crisp wheel route out of the backfield and bringing in a sideline bomb from Jimmy Garoppolo for a huge gain. The 27-year-old has a strong chance of leading all fullbacks in receiving for the second-consecutive season, but his lack of touches and unfavorable eligibility at running back should keep him out of the fantasy picture.

Juszczyk played 53 percent of offensive snaps in the five games Jimmy Garoppolo started last year, Sports Illustrated's Andy Benoit reports.
EDGE Analysis
Signed to a four-year, $21 million contract last offseason, Juszczyk easily led all fullbacks in catches (33), targets (42), receiving yards (315) and offensive snaps (394) in 2017. He compiled 46.7 percent of his snaps and 51.5 percent of his catches over the final five weeks, as the Niners used their base personnel far more often when they weren't forced to play catch-up. The team's improved depth at wideout likely will push Juszczyk back below the 50 percent threshold for snap share, but he still figures to get more touches and more playing time than any other fullback.

Juszczyk finished the 2017 campaign with 31 yards on seven carries and 315 receiving yards and a touchdown on 33 receptions through 14 games.
EDGE Analysis
The Swiss-army knife fullback did it again, posting arguably his best receiving totals (outside of touchdowns) after joining the 49ers this past offseason. Of course, leading the league in receiving yards as a fullback doesn't serve much purpose in fantasy leagues that do not have a slot for fullbacks. Juszczyk did see his production increase once Jimmy Garoppolo took over down the stretch, posting game totals that could have been passed off as a usable tight end in deep PPR formats, so it isn't inconceivable to have Juice on draft boards in those very deep formats next season.
