STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Mason's elite efficiency metrics and RB40 price suggest breakout potential with projected 50-75 more carries.

On 159 rushing attempts last season, Mason produced 758 yards and six touchdowns (4.8 yards per carry), ranking 10th in explosive run rate, 7th in rushing success rate, 9th in missed tackle rate, and 15th in yards after contact per attempt among 49 qualifying RBs. With Minnesota adding minimal RB depth and bringing back aging Aaron Jones, Mason sits at RB40 despite efficiency metrics suggesting he deserves more work. Joe Pepe projects another 50-75 rushing attempts and 10-15 additional targets this season, which would yield a 200-plus-carry back with ~30 targets at a price barely accounting for more than handcuff value.
