Anquan Boldin-San Francisco 49ers (47.4%)

While both Parker and Green-Beckham have a ton of upside, they don’t have nearly as much experience as the 49ers leading WR, Anquan Boldin. Boldin has shown a solid rapport with Blaine Gabbert and is coming down the stretch as a real fantasy option again if he was dropped onto your league’s waiver wire.

Boldin had eight catches for 74 yards and touchdown against the Bengals, and he has been able to produce at least 70 yards in five of his last eight games.  He doesn’t have the upside of the rookies earlier on this list, but he does get more targets than the two of them as clearly Gabbert’s top option.

San Francisco finishes with the Lions and the Rams making Boldin a WR3 consideration if you need a steady producer especially in PPR leagues.
