Jackson gets new OC Declan Doyle; adjustment period ahead but upside if Doyle mirrors Johnson.
Jackson has a new offensive coordinator in Declan Doyle, a 30-year-old largely unproven play-caller who spent 2025 as an assistant under Ben Johnson in Chicago and will now hold the play sheet for the first time. Jackson is embracing the new system but will need to adjust quickly and help establish rapport with Doyle to maximize the offense's potential. The source notes that if Doyle is anything like Johnson, the new OC should produce positive results, even if it takes time to get going.

Undervalued at pick 55; 25 PPG in 2024 beats Allen's career high.
Lamar Jackson is being undervalued at pick 55 ADP despite posting 25 PPG in 2024 (his best season, beating Josh Allen's career high of 21.5 PPG). Mattek is actively targeting him due to opportunity cost and believes the 2025 decline to 16.5 PPG was an anomaly caused by Ravens coaching turmoil and the Harbaugh conflict, with Lamar emerging as the winner of that battle and poised to rebound.
Jackson could be a round-five steal if available; don't pass on elite QB value.
Lamar Jackson represents steal value at quarterback if available in round five or later; the source advises not passing up elite quarterback value when it appears later than ADP suggests, using Jackson as an example of a stud QB that could fall to later rounds.
Strong value if he falls to a certain draft point
Davis Mattek would quickly take Lamar Jackson if he falls to a certain point in the draft, indicating strong conviction on his value at that price point.

Jackson locked in as Ravens' Week 1 starter despite 2025 injuries.
Jackson is the confirmed Week 1 starter for the Ravens despite missing time in 2025 and compiling a losing record (6-7) in games he did start. Jackson has won two MVP awards, including one unanimously in 2019. Though he only has one more year on his contract after 2026 and is still waiting for a likely extension, new head coach Jesse Minter has no reason to shake things up behind center.
League-winner upside with 25–28 PPG ceiling in MVP seasons; rushing expected to bounce back.
Tier-one QB despite injury concerns (missed 15 games over last five years) because he's the most likely true league-winner among all QBs; in his two MVP seasons, he scored 25–28 points per game, far above the 21–22 PPG ceiling of most tier-two QBs. The source projects if everything clicks, Lamar runs for 1,000 yards and 8 TDs while throwing for 3,500 yards and 35–40 TDs. Last season's poor performance attributed to mobility limitations from injury; the source expects rushing production to improve this year, making him deserving of tier-one ranking despite underrating from some.

Jackson showing improved speed and sharp early camp play despite age concerns.
Pro Bowl safety Kyle Hamilton observed that Jackson appears to have gotten faster despite approaching 30 years old, noting his speed came into question last season when he totaled a career-low 349 rushing yards and didn't break a run longer than 20 yards. Jackson started camp sharp, completing 10-of-13 passes on Wednesday and 8-of-11 on Thursday. Entering his ninth season, Jackson believes his best football remains ahead of him, stating 'each and every year you're getting older, your mind is getting sharper. Everything is slowing down even more.'

Had a down 2025 year and ranks behind Allen in Tier 1, but not nearly as far behind as ADP suggests; has blown the rest of QB competition out of the water in multiple seasons and is the only quarterback outside of Allen with a strong shot at QB1 overall in 2026. Source prefers Jackson over Allen for hunting the highest-scoring quarterback.

Jackson gains UFA leverage if deal not done by end of 2027 season.
Jackson has significant leverage in contract negotiations because the Ravens cannot use the franchise tag if his current deal expires. If a new contract isn't completed before the end of the 2027 season, he will become an unrestricted free agent in 2028, giving him more leverage than he had under his rookie deal.
Jackson's $52.5M deal now ranks lower; extension talks could reach $63.5M APY.
Jackson's current contract signed in 2023 at $52.5 million APY has slid down the quarterback compensation rankings since then. With Patrick Mahomes' new deal at $63 million per year, a potential Jackson extension at $63.5 million per year would total $294.5 million over five years at an average of $58.9 million from signing, with negotiations likely including first two years fully guaranteed at signing and third year fully guaranteed as of the start of the second year.
