I am just saying I am not 100% convinced he is overrated. I'd have him as a top 10-ish guy and that feels fair. Somewhere between 8-12 is probably the sweet spot. He is a solid passer with weak weapons and is the best athlete to ever play the QB position. His rushing average would rank 24th in YPA for passers - higher than Justin Herbert and on par with guys like Aaron Rodgers.
Maybe I am off base on what his consensus "ranking" is and that is why I don't feel he is overrated, but the only folks I know who are really high on Lamar are Ravens fans.
Browsing the Ravens forum they already think he's lost a step. If that is the case then the development of his passing game needs to evolve.
A pocket passer Lamar Jackson is not a good QB.
