This is why I said yes. It's likely that the upgrade of Kupp over JuJu is greater than the downgrade of going Chubb to Gordon. Plus, who knows how things will go when Hunt returns? I'd like to think Chubb will still get the majority of the work, but he could be looking at his own timeshare in the second of the fantasy season/fantasy playoffs. Especially if Cleveland continues to suck.
Gordon could also continue to get more and more work, but it will be tough for SD to keep Ekeler off of the field.
Kupp's target share is insane. He's clearly a crutch for Goff, and that isn't going away. Especially with Cooks and Gurley now banged up. Kupp is averaging 12.6 targets a game. Only one game he had single digit targets at 9, and that was in a 27-9 win against NO in the game where Brees was injured.
