Jaguars Fantasy Depth Chart

Maurice Jones-Drew and Fred Taylor form the league's most lethal running back tandem, but the time-share approach is a fantasy negative.  See where we rank them and the rest of the Jags ofensive players in this depth chart summary.

Star-divide

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS
         FANTASY DEPTH CHART

Key:

PTR= Position Tier Rank. This is the tier level where the player should be slotted in drafts.

1 = Elite Player.

2 = Solid Performer

3 = Backend starter/Bench fill-in

4 = Roster filler or long-term prospect

0 = No value

ITR = In The Rotation

PB = Position Battle

S = Starter

 

QB                              PTR
David Garrard - S          2
Cleo Lemon - PB           0

Todd Bouman - PB        0

Summary:  Garrard had a breakout season, emerging as a reliable fantasy performer with 18 TDs and just 3 INTs in the 12 games he started.  With another year as a starter, Garrard will have more to do in the Jags expanded offensive plans, and he will meet the challenge.  He ranks as a a very solid #2 fantasy QB.

 

RB                                     PTR
Fred Taylor - S                     2
Maurice Jones-Drew - ITR   2

Chauncey Washington           0

Greg Jones                            0

Summary: Possibly the league's most lethal running back tandem in Taylor and Jones-Drew.  However, as long as both are splitting time, neither can be considered an elite fantasy option.   Taylor received more carries (223 vs.167), but Jones Drew had more TDs (9 vs. 5) and also caught 40 passes.  Jones-Drew should be picked before Taylor, despite not being the starter.

Good Stuff!

The Jaguars are not the most fantasy football friendly team. Splitting carries, spreading the the ball around, all sorts of stuff that drive owners crazy.

Thanks for posting this!

Under the radar

The Jags have a couple of guys under the radar, who could become reliable fantasy performers. Wide Receiver is the position with the most uncertainty.
