Certainly not to dismiss everything Jackson is doing this year and he is having an MVP year BUT I’d like to consider his competition for a moment.

Miami
ARZ
KC (known weak D)
Cleveland
Pitts (good D, at least lately)
Cin
Seattle (suspect D, good team)
NE (excellent D)
Cin again
Houston

For season #s the inflation helps beating down Cin twice and Miami.
He’s doing what a QB should be doing against some weak teams, maybe 3 tough games against a D.

Um no. Just looking at QBs:

3rd rd Russ, 2nd rd Brees(even though he got traded) and 4th rd Dak I’d say are currently all bigger steals.

Lamar has been good but the hype is partly because of the highlight plays.

Even when you add in his rushing yards per game, he’s still not producing as many yards a game as Dak is in passing alone.

Coincidently Jackson and Brees are the same pick number (32) but because Houston didn’t exist yet, brees is a 2nd rounder.
 
He’s playing great but I don’t think it’ll last sadly if he continues to play like this and run like he has been he will sustain some kind of injury and drop off the radar within 3 years.
 
Brady is the biggest steal when you look at when he was drafted and his body of work since.
 
Lamar Jackson is top 10 in rushing yards right now ... not for QBs, that’s the entire NFL with 788 rushing yards. He is on pace for for 1200+ RUSHING yards ... for a QB!!

that is wildly impressive for anyone, much less a QB. However, the NFL had NEVER seen this sustained. It’s hard enough for an RB to keep this up, much less a QB,

he is having an MVP type year right now, but we have seen this song and dance before, and it usually doesn’t end well.

sustainability is the key. Maybe he will break the mold? But history is not on his side
 
Pretty crazy. I definetly had him pinned as a bust coming out.

And then there's the fact that last year he was EXACTLY what I thought he would be. And then just lighting the damn league on fire this year.

Whatever he did during the off-season he should market and sell.

Convince Baltimore to sign mark ingram?
 
Wilson and Dak are way bigger steals. Brees was a 2nd rounder too.

Love what LJ is doing, but the question is can he do it consistently year after year and also stay healthy? That'll be the difference on whether he's a perennial MVP like Russell Wilson or a franchise QB that is inconsistent and can't stay off the IR like Scam Newton.

Yeah wrote him off after his passing game from last year. Was truly horrendous at times. Now he's making some amazing throws and is super accurate.

Makes you wonder just how good Mike Vick could've been had these type of offenses been around in the league 20 years ago. As good as LJ is, I've still yet to see a football player as talented as Vick.=

Brees and Jackson are both #32 picks. Brees draft year only had 31 teams.

The title is not “is LJ a bigger steal than brady”.
The title is “is LJ the biggest steal SINCE tom Brady.”

The answer is still no in both cases.

My point is LJ has put together about 1/2 a really good season.....talk to me after at least a couple of seasons
