I couldn't find any topics on Vinnie. Seems like he put it all together last year and he had a good preseason. He doesn't have to worry about the DUI until after this season so that's sort of behind him.
Any projections for this year? For tonight?

Still not much buzz about this guy. I think he will finish as a top 10 WR. He is a beast of a man and grabs anything that is thrown near his vicinity despite multiple defenders hanging all over him. I'm actually pissed that Rivers doesn't throw more to him because he can really help the team actually win.

I wish I had him, he will be a top 10 wr this year for sure.

the situation in SD is very favorable for rivers and jackson owners...
1) SD cannot run the ball (seemingly with our without LT)
2) SD's defense is horrid
it looks as though SD will be airing it out going forward unless LT shows more than he did week 1... it's clear that sproles and bennett aren't solutions to their rushing woes...

Agreed although Bennett was good running the ball inside and I couldn't figure out for the life of me why they didn't give him more chances.

He was high on my draft list this year. I managed to get him in 2 leagues and I couldn't be happier!
I think he'll be top 15 this season.

I'm beyond pissed I drafted Lee Evans for this guy. Never in my life have I thought Lee Evans is good and I took him because he was higher ranked. Just stupid. Since last year we on Rotoworld have been talking about him and I just didn't bite.
Enjoy, those who did.

it took some time, but the time is finally here......downgraded LT + upgraded rivers = $$$ for VJ.
logical boost.

i'm curious as to what site had evans ranked above jackson this offseason... on most sites i looked at, jackson was being rated too high at the time (of course they look like geniuses now)...

Rotoworld's draft guide had Evans at 39 and V. Jackson at 40.

ESPN had VJax going 53 overall and 19th WR overall.I got him 52nd overall in our league after Marshall, Cotchery, Hines, Coles, Roy O, etc...

SD will be airing the ball out this year for sure...I think Bennett will be the pure run guy and Sproles will be sprinkled lots as well...They were down in this game, so that's why they didn't give Bennett more shine...But Vjax could be a top 5 producer this year in PPR.

The only concern is that Rivers threw 45 times and VJax only had 7 targets... They need to throw the ball more to him.

well, he's obviously not what he used to be, but replacing bennett with LT is absurd.....it's just a sprained ankle.

Yea I believe it was Roto's (at the time) and I really don't know where I went wrong. I'm serious. Not for one second have I ever liked Lee Evans. I mean I took a #2 WR on a team with an average QB as opposed to a #1 on a good passing team with an actual QB in a poop division.
Having V-Jax as my WR3 would have been money. Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid. No one to blame but myself...
Enjoy everyone!

Is V-Jax now worthy of keeper status in PPR leagues? Especially in those where keepers count as your early picks like ESPN.

Bought him last week for Steve Smith and Shonn Greene and he was a big reason that I got the W last week.....Glad to be aboard and look forward to some monster games...
Why isn't this topic on the first page? Great game AGAIN Sunday for V-Jax! Where's the love??
This guy is more reliable than a Toyota.
Colston and Mason screwed me today yet Jax keeps on chugging. Amazing. I have a chance to win because of him.
Think he knows he's in a contract year?

Can anyone who watched the game give insight into what the hell happened? Did they just double team him all day? Targeted but Rivers missed him? Dropped passes? So disappointing...

He was doubled all game and PHI didn't want him to beat them (obviously).
