Summary

Running Back Rank: #12All Players: #17

Jackson had his eighth straight 1,000-yard season. He started the season a little slow, splitting some work with rookie Daryl Richardson, but got much of the work late in the year and carried the offense at times. Jackson had 80-plus total yards seven of the last eight games. He proved he still has something left in the tank and can carry a heavy load at running back. Jackson will be 30 years old when the season starts and has 2,395 carries under his belt. You have to wonder if he can continue to play at this current pace. He has to slow down sooner or later, right? He might be best suited for more of a time share at this stage of his career but should get most of the work at running back for his new team this season, the Falcons. He'll be the go-to back in the Falcons high-powered offense. Jackson is the complete package at running back. He has enough speed to break a play to the outside but also isn't afraid to run over a would-be tackler. Jackson is as big as some linebackers, making him a scary proposition for defenses. He does lack a little big-play ability, though, because he isn't as fast as he used to be.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Jackson produced just fine last year but wasn't a great fantasy play, scoring just four touchdowns. He hasn't found the end zone on a regular basis the last few seasons, scoring 20 touchdowns the last four years, but that should change this season in a much better offense. Consider him a low-end No. 1 or top No. 2 back, mainly because of his huge total yardage potential. He can have another 1,000-yard season with the Falcons and score double-digit touchdowns, producing some of the better numbers of his career.
