. . . Lamar Jackson. 4. player. 26

Next in these rankings is Baltimore Ravens’ quarterback Lamar Jackson who the Buffalo Bills play in Week 4. Lamar Jackson was drafted in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft, the same year that the Buffalo Bills drafted Josh Allen, and Jackson had a breakout year in 2020.

That season, he had 3,127 passing yards, 36 touchdowns, only six interceptions along with 1,206 rushing yards, and seven rushing touchdowns and would win the league MVP. However, the past two years haven’t been as productive but he is still a talented quarterback that can take games over in a blink of an eye.

While he may not be at the level of the other quarterbacks on these rankings in terms of throwing the ball, he is a challenge for defenses because of his ability to make plays with his legs. He has already had two seasons with over 1,000 rushing yards and this past season in a down year still had nearly 700 rushing yards.

Similar to Stafford, one area that Lamar Jackson has struggled recently is turnovers as he has seen his interceptions steadily increase each season from three as a rookie to 13 last year. This past season was the first time in his career that he averaged more than one interception per game.
