BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 40% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: As I was expecting last week and told you about, the bye week put Trevor Lawrence's rostership at 40% today down from his prior 51% mark. I said back then that you should only make Lawrence a WW target for your squad if you had room to stash him but entering Week 8 you should definitely grab some shares now that Jacksonville is back, which means Lawrence might turn into a weekly QB1/QB2 ROS.
It took time--and a certain Urban Meyer, maybe...--but Lawrence seems to be gearing up as the season grows older. We're already past the first third of the year, and Lawrence has racked up a rather upsetting 96.7 FP over six weeks. The good news, though, is that he has put together a three-week streak of games hitting at least 15.9 FP and finishing in the QB2 realm each and every one of those weeks including this past one.
Lawrence had a rough W2/W3 games going for less than 10 FP, but in the next (last) three he's completed 17, 23, and 25 passes, comes off his second-highest passing yardage (319) of the season and has limited interceptions to just one in that three-game span (just for context, he threw 7 in the first three games of the year). The growing pains will show up again here and there, but Lawrence is getting better weekly and he's already a lock to get into the QB2 cohort when the season is over. Add some mojo to that, and some QB1 weeks should be coming Lawrence's way if only one or two times until we reach January. Must-have in the deepest league, and a legit option for streamers at the position with Jax back.
