Fantasy Scouting Report: Green Bay Packers

The Pack is rolling, we ask Acme Packing Company if they can keep it up.

QB Aaron Rodgers. Arguably the Ravens are the toughest pass defense he’s faced all year, though they haven’t recorded a sack since LB Terrell Suggs was injured (torn MCL). Rodgers is listed on the injury report this week with sore ribs, and he’s been playing through some foot injuries this season too. However, the game is being played on Monday night with a good chance of snow, so the playing conditions might be less than optimal. He should still be a start for most teams, but it depends on your bench.

RB Ryan Grant. The Ravens have a solid run defense, but, as I mentioned above, it might snow. The last time Grant played in a snow storm was during the 2008 playoffs when he rushed for over 200 yards against the Seahawks. Start.

WR Donald Driver. He’s been lights out against lousy pass defenses (Detroit, Cleveland, Tampa), but with only modest production against good NFL secondaries (Dallas, 49ers, Vikings). Still, he’s a No. 1 receiver without any injury problems. Start, but you might find a better matchup on your bench.

WR Greg Jennings. Almost a reverse Driver, with modest games against the Lions, Browns and Bucs, while scoring TDs against the Vikings and 49ers. Also, he’s scored all his TDs at home this season. In the snow, he might have an advantage because he’s always gotten big yards after the catch, and the slick field may give him an added edge. Start.

Packers Defense The Ravens have a good offense, but the Packers have the No.1 defense. A potential snow game could turn bring out the turnovers. Start.
