Fantasy Football Draft Outlook: Sleepers
Trevor Lawrence (JAC)
I love Lawrence in fantasy football this season. All we need is health and regression to the mean, and Lawrence should take off. Last year, Lawrence battled a sprained MCL, ankle sprain, concussion, and bruised right shoulder. It’s fair to question if we saw a healthy version of Lawrence after Week 6. Despite all of this, Lawrence was the QB13 in fantasy points per game (QB7 in expected fantasy points per game) while ranking 14th in CPOE and seventh in highly accurate throw rate (per Fantasy Points Data). This offseason, Jacksonville restocked Lawrence’s weapon cupboard despite losing Calvin Ridley to free agency. The Jags signed Gabriel Davis and drafted Brian Thomas Jr. to stretch the field and open up the middle of the field for Christian Kirk and Evan Engram. With these additions, we could see this offense pass aggressively. In Weeks 11-18, Jacksonville ranked seventh in neutral passing rate and 10th in red zone passing rate. The needle is pointing upward for Lawrence for 2024.
