2007 Outlook
Jackson enters his third season with a chance to become a starter now that Keenan McCardell is gone. He only had 27 catches for 453 yards last year but easily led all other Chargers wideouts with six touchdowns – no other wideout had more than three. The optimism for what this year could bring was sparked by a very nice ending to the regular season of 2006 when Jackson turned in games of 95, 66 and 97 yards and scored three times in the final two weeks. At 6’5", Jackson presents a very big target for Phillip Rivers and has the most promise of any wideout this year. His season will be limited only by the amount of plays going to Tomlinson and Gates, but his six scores in 2006 already have shown that Jackson can be a factor as well and he was starting to mesh with Rivers as the season ended last year. He gets the odd benefit of being the only wideout that can be #1 for his own team and yet be just the #3 receiver used by the quarterback. He has upside this year but don’t spend too much – Gates and Tomlinson get their cut first.
Recent Priority News
12/29/06
San Diego WR Vincent Jackson didn't practice on
Thursday due to a hamstring problem, but he said he
expects to play this week against Arizona.
Huddle Up: Jackson has been good recently, but he's still only a
marginal No. 3 receiver on fantasy squads playing in
Week 17.
12/11/06
WR Vincent Jackson, in his second NFL season out of Northern Colorado, has done well filling in for injured starting receiver Keenan McCardell. Jackson caught 3 passes for 95 yards Sunday and provided quarterback Philip Rivers with another quality target in this high-octane offense. Jackson is a huge 6'5" 241 pound receiver with tons of upside for the future.
Huddle Up: Fantasy owners in keeper leagues should have already grabbed up this talented receiver for next season. He has the size and ability to be the stud receiver San Diego has been looking for. He is also going to be in that magical third season that most receivers breakout in. He is also worth a roster spot in seasonal leagues for the playoffs this season with McCardell out of the lineup.
