Colin Kaepernick, Michael Crabtree, Anquan Boldin Post-Week 11 Fantasy Reaction

The San Francisco 49ers' passing attack was again unpredictable against the New York Giants in Week 11. However, one receiver finally had a standout showing after several weeks of mediocrity.   

Michael Crabtree posted his best fantasy performance of the season thanks to a few catches and one huge touchdown pass from Colin Kaepernick. Anquan Boldin registered several receptions of his own, but was mostly held in check throughout the afternoon.

Comp.-Att.	Pass Yds	TD-INT	Rush Yds	Fantasy Points (Standard)
15-29	193	1-0	24	14.12

Player	Rec.	Targets	Rec. Yds	Rec. TD	Fantasy Points
Michael Crabtree	3	8	85	1	14.50
Anquan Boldin	5	6	53	0	5.3

Over the last five games, Crabtree has hit over 60 yards just once and has one touchdown. After being expected to carry the passing game this season, he hasn't experienced quite the breakout he expected.

One area where he has been reliable is on third downs, as Matt Barrows of The Sacramento Bee notes:

Meanwhile, Kaepernick didn't put up a lot of passing yards but helped owners with a decent scampers in the running game. He's still not a great QB1 option, but can fill the role if necessary in deep leagues.

Though Boldin has typically overshadowed Crabtree, the veteran receiver wasn't able to touch pay dirt on Sunday. Going against the Washington Redskins next week, however, Kaepernick, Boldin and Crabtree might have big games.  

Crabtree might have finally resurrected his fantasy season, but owners still have reason not to trust him. He and Boldin have good value as flex options, but it's hard to predict who will shine in this offense with Kaepernick under center.
