Aaron Jones (hip) is out in Week 18 against Green Bay, making Jordan Mason one of my favorite sleeping places. He should be used as the No. 2 fantasy running back in every league.
I like it too JJ McCarthy like a sleeping protector, and Justin Jefferson And Jordan Addison there is also a chance to play well. Packers This game is expected to rest the starters as they are the seventh seed in the playoffs, so it should be a good week for Minnesota's offense.
Mason started four games for Jones earlier this season from Weeks 3 through 7, and Mason averaged 14.5 PPR points during that period with four touchdowns. He has taken a backseat to Jones since Week 8, but Mason should excel in Week 18.
The Packers have struggled with running backs in their last nine games, with eight guys scoring at least 12.3 PPR points with 10 touchdowns during that span. While we don't know who will be resting Green Bay, this is clearly a depleted defense with nothing to play for.
It also bodes well for McCarthy, who missed Week 17 with a hand injury. Before injury at 16 weeks GiantsMcCarthy has scored at least 26.4 Fantasy points in back-to-back games against Washington and Dallas.
Two of the last three quarterbacks have scored at least 25 fantasy points against the Packers, and I like McCarthy as a low-level starter in deeper leagues. Let's hope McCarthy has success with Jefferson and Addison.
Jefferson has been one of fantasy's biggest busts this season and has only had one game with double-digit PPR over his last six games. He also hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 9.
But he's within 53 yards of 1000 for the sixth year in a row, and I'm sure Vikings will make sure he reaches this milestone. And hopefully he can find the end zone for just the third time this season.
Addison didn't catch a single target in Week 17 against Detroit, but he did score a 65-yard touchdown. He's harder to trust than Jefferson, but I'm willing to bet on Addison as the No. 3 junior wide receiver in Fantasy in Week 18 given the matchup against Green Bay.
