Here are some of the Packers' fantasy football options this week:
Banking on QB Matt Flynn in the regular-season finale could be wishful thinking, as team sources suspect Aaron Rodgers is likely to play at least the first quarter. Is three quarters of action enough for you to start Flynn? Against the Lions and possibly second-stringers, yes.
Forget about rookie WR Randall Cobb being a potential fantasy sleeper this Sunday, as it appears an injured groin could keep him from playing.
WR James Jones had 4-50-2 against the Bears last week and is a viable start in Week 17 if the team begins to rest players like Jordy Nelson or Donald Driver, who is healthy but has aged legs. Jones had 3-94-1 against the Lions on Thanksgiving Day, including a 65-yard TD.
TE Jermichael Finley only caught 3-20-1 last week after a fast start gave us false hope. With the team possibly resting players and his knee acting up, he might not be on the field much so consider other options.
RB James Starks aggravated his ankle last week and has not practiced. Don't expect to see him out there, as counting this week, he could get three full weeks of rest before playing in the divisional playoff round.
