    Cardinals at 49ers

    Start Em:
  • Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Cardinals
    Brian Hoyer is a quarterback who can actually get the ball to Larry Fitzgerald.

    Colin Kaepernick is at least a low-end QB1 because of his rushing ability.

  • Obvious Starts:
    ARZ: None.
    SF: RB Frank Gore, WR Michael Crabtree, 49ers Defense.

    Sit Em:
  • Chris Wells, RB, Cardinals
    Chris Wells doesn't appear to be 100 percent.

    Sit Em:

    walter, do you edit these throughout the week as injury updates become available?

    Blount is doubtful this week (and extremely unlikely to play) yet you say he is an obvious start...
