San Francisco 49ers
Shaun Draughn (Running Back): Draughn has become the starting running back for the 49ers a team entirely made of backups. Draughn has produced pretty well becoming a solid flex option from week to week. This week he will be facing off against a defense that allows the 13th fewest fantasy points to running backs. Draughn should get plenty of chances as he averages 14 rushing attempts a game.
Torrey Smith/Anquan Boldin (Wide Receivers): Smith is pretty much out from a fantasy standpoint, he has not caught more than 2 balls since week 6. Boldin on the other hand is Gabbert's secret weapon and has produced as a solid flex player. The Bears currently give up the 13th fewest fantasy points to wide receivers but could see the targets necessary to earn some decent fantasy points.
Chicago Bears
Alshon Jeffery (Wide Receiver): Jeffery is going up against a defense that has allowed the 7th most fantasy points to wide receivers. Jeffery saw double digit targets last week and could again as he has a favorable matchup. 5 opposing receivers have gone over 100 yards on the 49ers this season as they have allowed 227 yards through the air per game. Jeffery should be a WR1 for week 13.
Jeremy Langford/Matt Forte (Running Back): With a timeshare beginning to emerge both of these players values could see a steady decline. Since Langford proved he could handle himself as a starter the Bears basically have a Cincinnati running back situation going on. Neither player will win this competition but Forte is seeing more carries. The 49ers have allowed 121.1 rushing yards per game which is the 5th most in the league.
