Footballjoe Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 FFChamps) Safety-Marlin Jackson injured his Achilles Tendon during the Philadelphia Eagle's OTAs earlier today. Jackson was covering WR Jeremy Maclin on a deep play across the middle of the field when he fell down. The Eagles haven't announced anything official regarding Jackson's return this season, but some predict the injury will keep him out all year. Analysis: Jackson signed with the Eagles this off-season and was expected to play a big role in their pass defense, which ranked 17th in 2009.

Tford Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Third major injury in as many years yes? Might be time to pack it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keggerz Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 (edited) Bump Nate Allen wayyy up in rookie drafts. maybe in deeper leagues....Mikel should still be the S to own for fantasy purposes on the birds...and that was even if Jackson didn't get hurt Edit: Allen ran with the 1st and 3rd string units today: http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/moving_...l#axzz0pj27d12n Edited June 2, 2010 by keggerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_bone65 Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I drafted Allen in ATAP and GMX so I hope he pans out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, Mikell is obviously the DB to own on the Eagles... but a starting safety on an aggressive D like Philly's should be owned in IDP/dynasty formats.

I'm in a 12-team dynasty league (AFL) but we go 8 rounds... never been in a league with that few rookie rounds. In those cases, yeah... Allen would probably be an afterthought. But in an 8-round rookie draft, he should be considered. In fact, he went 7.06 (#78 overall) in AFL, and is probably a 6th or 5th round talent after the Jackson news, IMO.
