NFL Week 18 positional fantasy football rankings

• Aaron Jones is among the top running backs:  Jones put together his first 100-yard performance in over a month and should play a big factor in the Green Bay Packers' must-win game.
• Avoid players who might rest: Teams like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Giants have nothing to play for in terms of playoff seeding, so star players such as Saquon Barkley, Mike Evans and Chris Godwin might see little-to-no playing time.
• Nathan Jahnke’s fantasy rankings have been the most accurate in season rankings over the last four seasons combined, per FantasyPros‘ rankings accuracy competition.

According to FantasyPros, my rankings were fifth-most accurate in 2021, second-most in 2020 and third-most in 2019. I was the only analyst to rank top-five all three seasons, making these the most consistently-accurate rankings of the last four seasons.
