Prospects Comments
NFL - Jackson is a productive, durable runner with the foot quickness and agility to make defenders miss on all levels of the field, but has a thin frame that could turn some teams off. While Jackson carried a heavy workload in college, he's unlikely to find that opportunity in the pros. Jackson's elusiveness gives him a shot at a backup role, but he will need to improve as a third-down option.
DLF - Jackson has a Rookie ADP of 43.40, making him a mid-fourth-round pick in rookie drafts. On average, he’s usually the 15th running back off the board. I’d pay the fourth-round price tag to get him on my team. You’re getting a very productive runner who can catch the ball out of the backfield. His seventh-round draft pedigree is the main reason why he’s not valued higher. You must remember that this year’s running back class is well above average when it comes to talent which is going to cause some solid prospect to fall to the later rounds. I wouldn’t be surprised if Jackson exceeds expectations and becomes a dependable RB2 or flex option in fantasy. I’ve been trying to land him in all of my rookie drafts. He’s a player I’ve been consistently watching for the last few years and I’m excited to see how his skill set translates to the NFL level.
