Is it time to bench the 49ers

Vernon Davis, Frank Gore, Micheal Crabtree, Brian Westbrook, all former viable fantasy options at the beginning of the season, however  with this year coming to a close and no shot at playoffs, are any of these guys worth a spot on your roster? Frank Gore out for the season and a timeshare between Westbrook and Dixon the 49ers backfield has become all but obsolete. With inconsistent passing attack and a sub par rushing attack the 49ers find themselves serving yet another dismal season. None of the 49ers recieving core seems like a viable fantasy option and the last gleam of hope TE Vernon Davis dropping a pathetic 4 yrd performance I think its safe to cut ties with the sinking ship that is the San Fransico 49ers. Vernon Davis will continue to see be a top option on most fantasy boards based on his shear talent, however the QB play is just too inconsistent. If your searching for a good replacement rookie TE Rob Gronkowski has seen his fair share of looks from ace QB Tom Brady and is available in 60% of leagues. Its tough to cut ties with marquis players but in a sudden death elimination of the playoffs I would put my money on someone a little more safe than any of the 49ers.
Lets hope the 49ers can fix some of these woes over the off season and get back to the caliber of play we know they are capable of.
