TB WR Vincent Jackson - Week 1, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Tennessee

Vincent Jackson's value is reliant on whether or not Mike Evans plays. Evans is questionable (hamstring) and didn't practice until Friday this week. With Evans in, Jackson takes a bit of a hit. But if Evans is out, Jackson becomes a very attractive option in Week 1.

We'll move along with the thought Evans plays. Jackson is the lesser of the two receivers, but not by much. Both wideouts had 1,000-yard seasons in 2014. Jackson's value was hurt, however, due to his lack of touchdown receptions. Right now, Jackson should be viewed as a low WR2 or strong WR3. If Evans sits, he'll be a solid WR2.

TB WR Vincent Jackson - 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Vincent Jackson provides a veteran presence in Tampa Bay for rookie quarterback Jameis Winston. He has been successful throughout his career, finishing with at least 1,000 receiving yards every season since 2008 (he had 248 yards in 2010, but only played in five games). He and WR Mike Evans will be able to again play off each other and have success as a pair.

Fantasy Downside
Jackson was an interesting player in 2014. He finished with 143 targets, which was best for eighth in the league, but had just 1,002 yards (23rd) and a measly two touchdowns. His touchdown total was his lowest since his rookie year in 2005.

Bottom Line
Jackson was heavily targeted last season, but could only do so much with Josh McCown and Mike Glennon as his quarterbacks. With Jameis Winston under center, Jackson will likely be a lot more efficient in catching passes. His touchdown total should also improve, making him a valuable option. He should be viewed as a WR2 or WR3.

TB WR Vincent Jackson - Week 17, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Vincent Jackson - Week 17 vs. New Orleans

Vincent Jackson had one of his best games of the season the last time he faced the New Orleans Saints He finished with eight receptions for 144 yards on 12 targets. The lack of Mike Evans in that game improved his stats, but he proved he could have success against them.

Jackson has had a decent season overall. He's just nine yards shy of 1,000 on the season. His main struggle is finding the end zone. Evans has taken most of the touchdowns away from VJax. Jackson hasn't scored since Week 4.

Owners should view Jackson as a WR2 this week in a good matchup.

TB WR Vincent Jackson - Week 16, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Vincent Jackson - Week 16 vs. Green Bay

Vincent Jackson is starting to be featured again in Tampa Bay's offense. Mike Evans is busy scoring all of the touchdowns (Jackson hasn't scored since Week 4), but VJax is starting to get looks. He has back-to-back games with double-digit targets.

He gets a favorable matchup this week against Green Bay. The Packers allow a lot of yards to receivers because opponents often find themselves trailing and/or in shootouts. Jackson is a lesser option than Evans, but should still be viewed as a low-end WR2 option.

TB WR Vincent Jackson - Week 15, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Vincent Jackson - Week 15 vs. Carolina Panthers

Last week Vincent Jackson saw 43 percent of Josh McCown's passes. He saw an incredible 17 targets and caught 10 (McCown had just 20 completions on the game) of them for 159 yards. He set a season high for receptions and yards in the game.

Jackson has been high and low this season, which makes him hard to trust. He has at least 100 yards in two of his last three games, but in the other game he had just 24 yards. So playing VJax is a bit of a gamble.

He has high upside considering what he's capable of, but should be viewed as a low WR2 or high WR3.

TB WR Vincent Jackson - Week 14, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Vincent Jackson - Week 14 vs. Detroit

Vincent Jackson isn't having a good year. He's on pace to finish below 1,000 yards for the first time since 2010 when he only played in five games. He also has just two touchdowns on the year. He hasn't scored since Week 4.

To make matters worse he'll draw a tough matchup this week against the Lions. Detroit has allowed the third fewest points to opposing wideouts this season.

Jackson will still get targets and likely finish with something, but he's a WR3 at best this week.

TB WR Vincent Jackson - Week 13, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Vincent Jackson - Week 13 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Vincent Jackson bounced back into fantasy relevance last week. He finished with 117 yards, his second 100-yard performance of the season. Lately we've been seeing rookie Mike Evans take credit for all of the receiving action on the Bucs.

Don't expect Jackson's production to continue at that level, however. He draws a difficult matchup against Cincinnati this week. The Bengals have allowed the second-fewest points to opposing wideouts this season. In more than half of their games they've held receivers to no touchdowns.

VJax will be a borderline WR2/WR3 option this week.
