I think with all the Rams OL injuries, SJax's upside is pretty limited. I really doubt he ends up scoring double digit TDs this year for example.However, just based on usage and the fact that he should catch at least 3 balls most games, he is one of the safer options out there. He is going to put up double digit points very consistently. I just think you're probably looking at a lot of weeks in the 10-16 PPG range (PPR), which isn't bad. Solid RB2. But without the upside that a lot of the other RB2s have.

Yeah no way he even sniffs double digit TDs, he hasn't done that since 2006. I owned Jackson last year and I hated it. Sure he's not a guy who's going to kill you, he'll consistently get 8-12 points, but he's rarely going to have that big week to carry your team to victory. If you have a strong team around this guy he's a fine role player, but you have to temper expectations for him.

He got injured week 1, missed week 2, played sparingly week 3 and then rattled off 12.4, 12.5, 13.3, 31.1, 14.2, 15.1. He had three bad weeks and then for the playoffs against top run defenses, he got 18.3, 14.3, and 12.7.

I'm guessing you're talking PPR? My league is non-ppr.Either way, I stand by my comments. From a brief look at his stats it seems he only had one game of more than 20 points which is my arbitrary standard for a big game.

This is one player I'd of loved to see on a good team during his prime. He is clearly on the backside of his prime (still very good) but would have put up elite numbers in a better situation.

He's always been an extremely talented guy and he had a nice resurgence last year. The problem is the Rams and now they've lost their starting center for the season and their LT indefinitely. I think this is the type of scoring to expect from him all year.

I like SJ, but I don't see what he does that is so special. He dances to the line with a silly looking hop and he doesn't have breakaway speed.

A huge part of sjax's value throughout the years (including this one) is his usage in the passing game. He's about as close to a guarantee as there is in ff to get 40+ receptions. His value is certainly tied to that. Also I am fairly confident that he'll hit paydirt 10+ times this year. Guy is a perfect foundation to build your team around. Love him on my team.

Maybe I'm biased since I've always been a fan, but I think he's a HOF'er on a non-terrible team. People forget that before the Rams fell apart he had 2300 yards and 90 catches. To do what he's done on this team is practically unbelievable.The guy had 1400 rushing yards (1700 total) and 50 catches on a 1-15 team. Think about that.

He hasn't done that in the last 5 years.

He's done that exactly one time in his career - he'll be lucky to get 6 this year.

He was absolutely able to break long long runs a few years back. He is one of the best receiving RBs I've seen, too.

I think this offense is going to take a step forward and Fischer will run Sjax 350 times, 100% of the goalline carries. Like I said, 10 TDs...

Cool site. Seems like we're kind of splitting hairs, looking at those numbers he averaged 12.25 ppg, had 6 games with more than 13 points and 4 games under 8 points. Yeah some of those low scores were due to injury, which is somewhat unpredictable, but SJax has only played 16 games twice in his career and has a lot of carries under his belt which makes him a slightly higher injury risk. I'm not trying to rip him, he's a fine RB, but after owning him last year he just isn't for me. I prefer a RB with more upside than Sjax has to offer, especially at his ADP. He pretty much fits the exact definition of solid, but not spectacular.

Jackson's "pound the rock" running style would work well with a team that could pass the ball. For a team like the rams, it only leads to mediocre stat lines like this and nagging/potential season ending injuries. A shake and bake back with good vision would do more to open up the passing game and keep the defense guessing and on their toes. I'm hoping Richardson gets the opportunity because I think he is that guy..

 

[Hairy Snowman]

I wait and see. I am not going to get too excited over week 1 of Fisher's offense.

I saw things I liked. Receivers getting involved. Bradford had some rhythm (more than previous two years). Defense played well to adequately.

I think the Rams are for real for a change. Detroit is good this year. I like what Fisher has done already. They still need a real #1 WR, but he can do alot with a savvy QB.

 

[need2know]

this week will be telling. Washington does not have the def line that detroit had. they should be able to run the ball a little better even with their oline problems

 

[We Tigers]

I'm concerned about the loss of Saffold, but not enough so to panic. Remember that the Rams line was just as bad, if not worse, in 2009 and 2010. Jackson still put up 1700 and 1500 yards those seasons.

 

[Banger]

SJax will get his...he has on some horrific teams held together by duct tape and I don't think this year will be that bad. I love Fisher being the coach because he loves to ride his horses. To me he's literally one of the lowest risk RBs there is as long as he plays. His upside is limited due to the team he's on but he's going to get his yards and he's going to be the focal point point of the offense. He's due for a lucky TD season.

 

[need2know]

just read that the tackle that was carted off practiced fully today. good news for Steven Jackson

 

[Ace28]

Old, slow, and washed up is not a good combination for an NFL runningback.

Agree, Michael Turner owners are in for a long year.
