You're all good Blueboy, props to you for engaging - plus I know you win some and lose some with these sort of things... it can be tough beating any drum around here. Wasn't too long ago I was saying Darrel was the more intriguing dynasty add of the two KC Williams'...Blueboy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 04, 2019 4:56 pm Props on calling Jackson's floor as you saw it, mild, even though it looked crazy at the time. I'm mostly aboard the Lamar hype train at this point, but am a bit worried about his arm strength. Seeing plenty of it in college, it's kinda concerning that he's yet to showcase his big arm -- which I'd seen as a strength of his -- too much in the NFL.
From what I recall watching - when Jackson would go deep in college, it would be because the defense was absolutely daring him to. I think we're starting to get to that point with the Ravens now. Both a 5-2 front, or a zero blitz (two typical ways to attack read option / dare a shaky QB to throw) leave the middle wide open, and we've started to see that with the TE's starting to feed in recent weeks. It fits what they're doing with the jumbo TE line packages.
It'd be good if he had someone outside Smokey Brown as a credible deep threat... I'll be very interested to see who they add this offseason (and also how the Chargers intend to stop them this weekend with a full game of tape and two weeks to study)
