Michael Crabtree
WR FA
ESPN's Adam Schefter stated confidently on NFL Insiders Monday that Michael Crabtree (PUP, Achilles') will return no later than Week 13.
"If he doesn't play tonight," said Schefter, referring to Monday night's 49ers-Redskins game, "he will play (next) Sunday." Crabtree will likely be eased in coming off his ruptured Achilles', but there is an outside chance he could be a WR3 asset for receiver-needy owners late in the fantasy playoffs. He's certainly worth a roster spot over low-ceiling bench fodder like Brian Hartline, Brandon LaFell, Kris Durham, and Nate Washington.
