Counting Down The Top 52 Players In PPR Fantasy Football Leagues. Player 51 is ...

51 Days until NFL Kickoff, player number 51 in PPR Fantasy Football Leagues is QB Lamar Jackson.

At 51, Lamar Jackson is looking to bounce back from a dreadful 2021 season. Jackson dealt with many injuries during the season as well as illness. All that hampered his performance in creating a less-than-ideal season for the former MVP QB. Jackson is projected to be a top-five fantasy QB this season, expect his passing yards to be down but rushing yards to fill the void. The Ravens' backfield of Jackson and Dobbins looks to be fresh/healthy all season long which means opposing defenses will have to focus on the run. Allowing Jackson to exploit loaded boxes in the passing game, but also allowing Jackson to make big-time plays with his legs. Jackson has gained 15 pounds which many think is to survive the grind of a 17-game season. The only red flag about Jackson as a top-five QB is his receiving core lacks a big-time star.
