Yahoo Fantasy Football on Aaron Jones
From the article
Jones has been a top-24 RB in every week, including RB18, RB15 and RB18 finishes in the most recent weeks as the Vikings' bellcow. Only 1 of 20 carries last week went for a negative, and Minnesota's offense is 29th in neutral pass rate right now. It's pretty much the Jones Show with Jordan Mason (IR) and potentially Justin Jefferson (ankle) out again.
STACKED’s take
Jones is Vikings bellcow; Saints allow league-high RB scoring on short week.
Jones has been a top-24 RB in every week, including RB18, RB15 and RB18 finishes in the most recent weeks as the Vikings' bellcow. Only 1 of 20 carries last week went for a negative, and Minnesota's offense is 29th in neutral pass rate, making it the Jones Show with Jordan Mason (IR) and potentially Justin Jefferson (ankle) out again. Jones' seasonal average of RB20 on RB16 usage seems like a fair starting point. The Saints are on a short week after getting shredded by the Falcons' RB duo on Monday Night Football with 19 missed tackles in that game. They have allowed six RBs to reach 10+ half PPR points in four games: Jahmyr Gibbs (RB4), Derrick Henry (RB7), Mike Washington Jr. (RB18), Ashton Jeanty (RB20), Bijan Robinson (RB5) and Brian Robinson Jr. (RB8). Minnesota projects for 22.0 points (16th).
