San Francisco 49ers

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody will kick off to the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Last week, Moody hit his only field goal attempt from 33 yards while making both extra-point attempts. It was a welcome sight one week after missing three of six field goal attempts in Tampa upon returning from an ankle injury. The Packers' defense is ranked 15th in the NFL in yards allowed per game and 10th in points allowed. The weather in Green Bay is expected to be mild, with temperatures in the 40's, 10-mph winds, and no precipitation. San Francisco will be without quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder), and All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) will be a game-time decision. As backup quarterback Brandon Allen takes the ball, the uncertainty surrounding San Francisco's offense coupled with Moody's recent accuracy issues take Moody's outlook down a peg or two. Still, the second-year pro is RotoBaller's fifth-ranked kicker heading into Week 12.

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall faces a tough road matchup against the Green Bay Packers in Week 12. Last week Pearsall turned in a donut, failing to catch either of two targets in a loss to the Seattle Seahawks. It was particularly disappointing though, since the game before in Tampa saw Pearsall catch his first touchdown en route to a six-target, four-catch, 73-yard performance. Even if Pearsall's ceiling is enticing, last week made it clear what his floor is. To make matters worse, San Francisco will be without its starting quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder), and possibly left tackle Trent Williams, who is questionable with an ankle issue. Backup Brandon Allen may well be up to the task of running the Niners' offense, but the risk is prohibitive for a player like Pearsall in fantasy. The rook is a low-end WR4 at best, with only deep-league managers considering a dart throw.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings will take on the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday. The 27-year-old is making the most of his opportunity this year, filling in for an out-for-the-season Brandon Aiyuk. Jennings surpassed 20 half-PPR points last week versus Seattle by securing 10-of-11 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown. The week before, in Tampa, Jennings was less productive but also had 11 targets. As a result, Jennings has surpassed teammate Deebo Samuel Sr. in fantasy value, at least for the moment. Jennings' job is a difficult one this week, however. For one, Green Bay's pass defense has been better than Seattle's, ranking 12th-toughest on wide receivers in fantasy. More importantly, San Francisco will be without starting quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) and potentially All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams, who is questionable with an ankle injury. Even still, Jennings is in play for lineups in Week 12 as a firm WR2. He's earned it.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. will line up across from the Packers in Green Bay on Sunday. In one of his most disappointing fantasy performances of the year, the dual-threat weapon was held to 4.1 half-PPR points in last week's home loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Looking ahead things don't look too promising. The Packers have been the 12th-toughest matchup for opposing wide receivers, and the 49ers will be without quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) and potentially All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams, who is questionable with an ankle injury. It's possible that Samuel Sr. could find rapport with backup QB Brandon Allen at Lambeau Field, but the slump-breaking performance that fantasy managers have been waiting for since Week 6 is less likely now. At least tight end George Kittle (hamstring) is back, hopefully taking some defensive focus off Samuel Sr. between the hash marks. Given the uncertainty regarding San Francisco's offensive efficiency in Week 12, consider Samuel Sr. a mid-range WR2.

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) is in Green Bay for a Week 12 matchup with the Packers. Through two games since his return, McCaffrey hasn't quite been himself, producing 13.7 half-PPR points in Tampa before totaling 12.6 at home in last week's home loss to the Seahawks. Conspicuously, McCaffrey hasn't scored a touchdown since he came back. The last time he went two consecutive games without a touchdown was almost exactly two years ago, spanning 28 games including playoffs. Green Bay presents a good enough opportunity for McCaffrey to start a new streak, ranking in the exact middle of the NFL in fantasy points surrendered to running backs. Though CMC has proven to be matchup-proof during his time in San Francisco, the 49ers offense is limping into Lambeau. Quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) has been ruled out -- ceding the start to backup Brandon Allen -- and future Hall of Fame left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) is questionable. Any volume boost created by the 49ers leaning more on McCaffrey is washed out by the likelihood that the offense becomes less efficient. McCaffrey is still a must-start high-end RB1 this week, but DFS players looking for maximum production out of a pricy back might rather have Saquon Barkley or De'Von Achane.
