Fell off a cliff last year on 150 touches with extremely poor underlying metrics. Showed signs of slowing down last season, and the Vikings will be careful to limit his touches this season. Liam Cohen ranked Jordan Mason ahead of Aaron Jones before the Collar report and is now completely doubling down on that ranking. Cohen views Aaron Jones as one of his fades and felt good after writing him up. He believes the team knows Jones has hit his cliff, evidenced by Jones returning on a much smaller contract than previously.NegativeBustJun 26, 2026
Analyst calls Aaron Jones 'one of the easiest fades out there.' Despite being the last quote-unquote starting running back to be drafted in fantasy, there are five or six running back twos selected ahead of the Vikings running back one at this point. Rush yards over expected is negative 4% versus Jordan Mason's positive 12%.NegativeInjuryJun 26, 2026
31 years old with 5 games missed due to hip, shoulder, toe, hamstring, knees, and toes injuries. All of his per-season per-touch numbers were worse last year. Analyst expresses concern that the cliff has arrived: 'once you start hitting that the cliff is here and the cliff has arrived... I'm kind of worried we're at that point here.'NegativeProjectionJun 26, 2026
Last year was his lowest yards per carry season (career low by 0.3 yards). Even when the Vikings offense is really good, fantasy points at running back don't materialize; there's not much ceiling. In 2024 when Vikings scored 9th most points in NFL, Aaron Jones ranked as RB20 in points per game. He and Jordan Mason combined for only 8 attempts inside the 5-yard line and 15 carries inside the 10-yard line (which would rank 30th among all individual ball carriers), indicating insufficient touchdown opportunities.
