No player in the league is as hot as Eskimos receiver Brandon Zylstra ($9,187), who comes into Week 18 sporting a streak of six consecutive games of double-digit Fantasy production and appears set to continue his run of successful outings against BC this week. Zylstra has emerged as one of the league’s premier receivers this season and he’s become one of the most expensive players going into Week 18.
Anyone looking to pair Zylstra with Eskimos quarterback Mike Reilly will have to pay out more than half of their salary cap money, so those thinking of pairing the two would be mistaken. It would be hard to add running back C.J. Gable ($8,941) into the fray, as it would run owners in excess of $18,000. The total would be higher if there was a Fantasy owner looking to add all three Eskimos options into a Fantasy roster.

» Week 17 Fantasy Recap: Receivers go off the hook
Toronto quarterback Ricky Ray ($10,260) had a solid season and is a nice pairing with receiver S.J. Green ($6,786). If running back James Wilder ($,5801) returns to the lineup, then the Argonauts have a trio of players that are Fantasy-viable.
A host of players are in play due to injury concerns, namely Calgary receiver DaVaris McDaniels ($6,234), whose game time status for Week 18 remains in doubt. The Alouettes have yet to make a decision on whether quarterback Darian Durant ($7,654) is available.
