Fantasy Football Start ‘Em/Sit ‘Em: QB- Week 1

Sit ‘Em: Colin Kaepernick (SF) v. Minnesota Vikings

September 3, 2015; Santa Clara, CA, USA; San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick (7) warms up before a preseason game against the San Diego Chargers at Levi Stadium.

ESPN standard leagues have Colin Kaepernick projected as the No. 7 fantasy quarterback in week one, but I highly disagree with this. I agree more with FantasyPros.com QB rankings which lists Kaepernick as the No. 21 quarterback.

Kaepernick has a below-average offensive line this year. On top of that he lost Frank Gore and Michael Crabtree on the offensive side of the ball. Unless Kaepernick runs for 70+ yards in week one, I have Kaepernick pegged as the No. 17-No. 20 quarterback in week one.
