The 2024 NFL season is nearing its conclusion, but fantasy football enthusiasts still have one last week to secure their championships. With critical decisions to make regarding wide receivers, players like Josh Downs, Darnell Mooney, and Marvin Harrison Jr. are under consideration for Week 18. Each player presents unique opportunities and challenges based on their matchups and recent performances.
Josh Downs, after returning from an injury, faces a favorable matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, who have struggled defensively. If Joe Flacco starts, Downs could thrive as a high-end WR3 option. Darnell Mooney has had a solid season with the Atlanta Falcons and is positioned well against the Carolina Panthers, making him a viable WR3 or flex play. Marvin Harrison Jr. has shown promise but faces a tough 49ers defense, making him a riskier WR3 choice this week.
