The fantasy football Week 13 schedule heads into the playoffs and some sleepers and free agent pickups for this week include Tre Mason, Coby Fleener, Jordan Reed, Kenny Stills, CJ Anderson, Marion Grice, Donte Moncrief, Doug Martin, Dan Herron, Jarvis Landry, Ryan Fitzpatrick, DeAndre Hopkins, Ryan Tannehill and Justin Forsett, as those players have the chance to step up for owners in the playoffs.
CJ Anderson had another strong game for the Broncos and he is a prime pickup as long as Montee Ball and Ronnie Hillman remain out. Fleener had one of the best games of his career and he is a prime option with Dwayne Allen missing time for Andrew Luck. Kenny Still has stepped up big with Brandin Cooks out, while Donte Moncrief and Dan Herron are strong options to look at for the Colts. Jarvis Landry has been playing well for the Dolphins, while Doug Martin looks to have his legs back for the Buccaneers.
The playoffs are coming for most fantasy football leagues and getting some pickups and sleeper options early in the week could be the difference between winning and losing. Tre Mason has been emerging all season and he had another massive game on Sunday, gashing the Raiders for 117 yards on 14 carries and he ended up scoring three touchdowns in the matchup. Mason came into the league with blazing speed and he has been showing that off week in and week out.
The Rams were satisfied with Zac Stacy and Benny Cunningham, but now Mason has shown that he is the feature back and moving forward he will get the bulk of the carries. Fantasy owners should start him this coming week, as he will be matching up with the Redskins and that could mean big yardage. Mason had 113 yards against the Broncos and 81 yards in Week 10 and he has continued to build on his season, going for over 160 yards in the game on Sunday against the Raiders. Mason is now the feature back and he is worth starting for teams in the playoffs.
The Colts have been dealing with injuries and with Allen and Ahmad Bradshaw out, Dan Herron and Coby Fleener are worth looks for fantasy owners. Fleener had seven targets in the game and made four catches for 127 yards and two touchdowns in Week 13 and he has been a favorite target for Andrew Luck. This season Fleener has six TDs and 35 catches for nearly a career best 594 yards and he should pass his numbers from last season with Allen out.
Justin Forsett has made the Ravens forget they ever defended Ray Rice, as he has been strong all season and now has three straight 100 yards games. The Ravens have been feeding him the rock and he comes in after rushing 24 times last week for 106 yards and he also added two catches in the game. Forsett now is over 1000 yards for the season and he has been one of the biggest surprises in football. The Ravens have been playing well with Forsett and he is worth starting along with Herron, Donte Moncrief, Doug Martin and Marion Grice this week, as the Cardinals lost Andre Ellington to a hip injury.
