This is a series on my 2014 outlook of players you would
want to have on your Paper Pigskin team (fantasy football). What you'll find here are my views based on
years of playing experience and countless hours of geeking out researching
stats, trends, and film. I'll advise
where to reach and whose hype not to believe.
JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS - Passing 215 ypg Rushing 79 ypg
To say that Jacksonville was a bad team last season is an
understatement. The Jaguars ranked 27th in total yards allowed and 28th in
points given up at 28.3 per game. They were even worse on offense than defense
in 2013; ranking 31st overall and scored a league-low 15.4 points per game.
It's hard to find value in fantasy football on a team with a -12.9 point
differential. Gus Bradley was handed a team devoid of talent but is working
diligently to transform this team into the Seahawks south, which would mean team
glory takes precedent over individual stats. Things are looking bright as they
finished with a positive stretch of four wins in eight games; partly because
the offense started to find a rhythm, with Chad Henne and Cecil Shorts emerging
as leaders.
