Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Week 11 Pickups

QB: Colin Kaepernick, San Francisco 49ers


Ownership Percentage (Yahoo): 12


After throwing for 398 yards and two touchdowns in a cake matchup against the Saints last week, Kaepernick was expected to drop off in a terrible spot on the road against a Cardinals defense ranked third against the pass, per Football Outsiders. Instead, he more than held his own, completing 17-of-30 passes for 210 yards and a touchdown, adding 55 yards and a score on the ground. He's playing better than expected in Chip Kelly's QB fantasy-friendly offense, his running ability increases both his floor and ceiling, and the 'Niners have a favorable schedule down the stretch. You could do a lot worse for a QB2. (Getty)
