Lamar Jackson is an extreme dual-threat quarterback.
His 147 carries were the most in a single season at the QB position in the history of the NFL, while his 170 pass attempts were the fourth-fewest since 2000 for a quarterback that started seven games. A lack of passing upside certainly doesn’t help, but there’s also something to be said for a QB with a strong fantasy floor.
Recent and long-term history tells us that Jackson is fully capable of providing immense and consistent value at his current price point as the QB22 in average draft position.— Ian Hartitz
