If you had 100 dollars to spend on a QB.

100 dollars to buy a QB. 100 dollars being the best and 0 being the worst hiw much would you spend on kaepernick and how much would you spend on Ben Rothlisberger?

need more information to answer this question!!!

do you have 100 dollars left all season??
do you have another QB on your team??

I'd spend $65 on Kaep(dependign who else is available) and about $15 on Ben. I think now that the 49ers have gone back to using the run more efficiently, Kaep will start to turn things around.

Let me also say I have never done an auction type of league, if that is what this is. So my dollar amounts may not make sense.

Up to $75 on Kaep and $20 on Big Ben. I have never done an auction league either. Kaep's gonna be pretty good down the stretch, IMO.

Are you talking about the rest of the season or just this week or both? Who else is on the wire? This week I would spend zero on Kaps as he is on a bye and depending who else is on the wire would make my decision on how much to spend on Big Ben. If you are covered for this week and want Kaps for ROS then I would say spend as much as it takes to get Kaps as finally he is running the ball and doing the things that had me draft him in 2 of 4 leagues.

Sounds like blind bid waiver wire to me and if that's the case and you have never been in a league that uses that system I highly recommend it. The only way to go IMO.

Sorry guys i know it was a very broad question. I was really just trying to figure how much more Kaeps is worth than Big Ben for a Keeper league. Thanks for all the responses

Big Ben's worth almost nothing in a keeper league, unless it's a 16-team league. Fantasy-wise he's a backup who has periods of being a low-end starter. There's a lot of fantasy inflation at QB, and Big Ben has lost a ton of value by staying the same.

Kaep is still kind of an unknown, and very boom-or-bust, but his ceiling is far higher than Ben's.

That said, in a keeper league I suspect an elite veteran pocket passer is probably the best asset you can have, so I wouldn't go nuts on Kaep.
