Aaron Jones seen as sell-high candidate amid fantasy concerns
Summary

Aaron Jones, currently the RB19, has been a key player in fantasy leagues but is now viewed as a potential sell-high candidate. With Jordan Mason injured and rookie Demond Claiborne not ready, Jones's current success may not be sustainable, as he averages a career-low 4.1 yards per carry. Experts suggest trading him for an ascending player like Omarion Hampton, who is currently positioned lower but has a favorable upcoming schedule. This strategic move could help fantasy managers improve their lineups before Jones's performance potentially declines further as the season progresses.
