Big Cat Country on Trevor Lawrence
From the article
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence leap into Tier 2, marking just his second career appearance in the category (2022). The percentage of Tier 2 votes he's received started at 8% as a rookie, jumped to 66%, fell to 36%, continued dipping to 20%, and then shot back up again to 52% following last season.
STACKED’s take
Lawrence lands in Tier 2 but voter volatility and subscriber skepticism reflect inconsistency concerns.
The Athletic's anonymous 50-voter NFL survey placed Trevor Lawrence in Tier 2 ("Carries his team sometimes") with 26 votes, marking his second career Tier 2 appearance since 2022. His Tier 2 vote share has been volatile: 8% as a rookie, 66% in 2022, 36% in 2023, 20% in 2024, and 52% last season. However, Athletic subscribers ranked him more pessimistically: 62% placed him in Tier 3 ("Legit starter but needs a better run game or defense to win"), 30% in Tier 2, and just 2% in Tier 1. A former head coach noted "if there's anybody that's between a 2 and a 3, I would say him right now" and suggested he could earn a standing Tier 2 if he repeats last season's performance. An offensive coordinator characterized him as "streaky, up and down," implying inconsistency rather than sustained elite play.
