A.J. Smith's Optimism in VJax

ESPN with the coverage:

 

Chargers GM A.J. Smith is optimistic that Jackson (suspension) will be able to perform at a high level once he is eligible to play on Nov. 28, the San Diego Union Tribune reports. "I believe he will do well," Smith said. "He always has been a worker, stays in shape, knows our offense. After a little game-speed adjustment, I would expect him to be a major contributor."

Spin: Though Smith doesn't call the Chargers' plays, his comments suggest that the organization has no plans to hold Jackson's self-imposed absence from the team against him. It's obvious that the Chargers are a better team when Jackson is on the field and from his perspective, the better he plays down the stretch, the more he can command in free agency. The bottom line here is that those who have held on to Jackson (or who make play for him now) should get a handful of productive games out of him at a critical juncture of the fantasy season.

 

So this means.....(blank for VJax)

Owners will overpay for him regardless, hoping they can catch lighting in a bottle for the playoffs. I still think Malcom Floyd will be Rivers primary target going forward.

How are you going to overpay ? You either have him rostered or you don't.

Ever hear of trading???

There is no trading in big $$ leagues, so maybe not.

If you have room on your roster (i.e., 16-18 slot teams) and your team looks like a playoff contender, there is really no harm in stashing away VJax. Just know that you will not get VJax back until Week 12, which by the way is the week SD plays Indy. He could prove to be a difference maker in the FF playoffs, especially if SD is still fighting for a playoff berth.

So in my league we have 20 roster spots, but you have to have a identical bench as your starting lineup(so like total 2QBs, 2K, 2DEF, 2TE then you can have up to 12 RB/WR but max of either 8 WR or 6 RB so you can have 7 n 5 or 6 n 6 or 8 n 4). So are draft is pretty simple your 1st 10 rounds have to fill your starting lineup 1st so you will take a kicker actually within 1st 10 rounds and so on. It makes the 2nd 10 rounds funner bc there is still great players available.

 

So with all that said I had already selected Welker and Boldin in 1st part and when the 2nd part came around(I was 10th pick) I took Floyd and VJAX at that time knowing I would have #1 WR on that offense one way or the other throughout the year. I ended up trading MJD before the season start for Marshall and Best so it has worked out great for me being stacked with WR's and plenty of space to hold on to VJAX.

 

Somewhat of a biased owner I guess then, but could also care less bc I am 5-1 without him. With that said tell me 1 reason both parties would not gain a ton by riding this guy once he comes back??? He is to good to deny that he wont help them. He will play his ass off to try and prove he is worth the money he wants(which he is not). Most importantly AJ has already won in his mind
