Where should you draft Jackson?

Jackson’s fantasy value should continue to soar this season. With the addition of RB Derrick Henry, Baltimore’s offense may look different, but the veteran RB will not take away Jackson’s playmaking ability.

Draft Jackson in the 3rd round as he will be a significant producer all season long with his arm and his legs. Do not let him fall out of the 4th round in 10-team leagues. When healthy, he’s good for more than 100 rush attempts netting more than 750 yards. Jackson will be a much more valuable pick compared to the mid-level quarterbacks thanks to his ability as a runner.
