Plus

  • Keep #10 with seven boards — rushing QB1 production that Superflex still cannot fade.
  • Redraft QB1 weeks remain weekly-win buttons when he's on the field.
  • Superflex first-rounder on The Keep (#8).
  • Shows up on four-plus Ball Keep lists — not a one-board meme.
  • Ranked on 10 Superflex sources — not a one-list darling.

Minus

  • Brown has him 27th; the durability and 'how many more 1,000-yard rushing seasons?' questions are priced in by some.
  • Age-29 dual-threat aging curve is the long-term SF conversation versus Maye/Daniels.
  • Expert spread is wide (ESPN (Karabell) 2, Draft Sharks 4, Andrew Erickson (X) 4, PFN (Katz/Soppe) 5…). You are betting with one camp, not a unanimous tape.

Ball Keep Take

Lamar Jackson is the quarterback every Superflex league still regrets fading. Our seven-board average puts him 10th. PFN has him fifth. The 2025 clip of Andrews racing down the sideline is the play-action shot Lamar has always had, now with a contract-year receiver group and a Ravens offense that can still tilt into him as a runner.

The expert split is the story. Fitzmaurice and Erickson still have him inside the top six. Brown has him 27th. That is not a talent dispute. It is a 'how do I age a scrambling MVP?' dispute. Ball Keep splits the difference at 10, which keeps him in the first round of Superflex startups and out of the Maye/Allen/Daniels pantheon.

Redraft loves the weekly ceiling (Yates in the mid-30s overall is still a QB1 pick). Dynasty has to ask how many more years the rushing volume holds. If you need a two-year window, Lamar is a smash. If you need a five-year QB1, the kids are cheaper in years and not cheaper on our board — which is exactly why Lamar still has a market.
