THE CASE FOR JEANTY
Lamar Jackson is a proven fantasy QB1 with elite rushing upside and a stable role in Baltimore. He consistently puts up top-5 numbers when healthy, giving you a massive weekly ceiling in Superflex formats. At 29.6, he’s still in his prime for quarterbacks, with years of high-end production left. You’re locking in a cornerstone asset who gives you a huge positional advantage every week.
THE CASE FOR JACKSON
Ashton Jeanty is an ascending young RB entering the NFL at just 22.7 years old, with workhorse upside and a three-down skill set. He projects to command volume right away in Las Vegas and should be a PPR machine if he hits. Running backs with his profile rarely come this young and with a clear path to touches. If you’re targeting youth and potential positional scarcity, Jeanty is a strong bet.

If you're contending, stick with Lamar Jackson for his elite floor and ceiling at quarterback.
If rebuilding, Jeanty's age and upside make him the preferred long-term asset.
This is a close call, but quarterbacks like Lamar hold a slight edge in Superflex formats.
