Chris Allen highlights Lamar Jackson as a fifth-round value, emphasizing his rushing upside and passing skill set as a potential three-time MVP.NegativeRoleAug 28, 2026
Lamar Jackson is transitioning from a right-foot-forward quarterback stance to a left-foot-forward stance to match the timing of Declan Doyle's offense (similar to Ben Johnson's system). This is a significant muscle-memory adjustment that may take time to feel natural, though the Ravens are encouraged by his transition. Jackson was injured all year last year, so his health returning is a positive. The Ravens' schedule starts with Indy, Saints, Cowboys, Titans, at Falcons in the first five weeks (not bad), with a home game against the Saints in week two.NegativeValueAug 10, 2026
