Where Does Baltimore Ravens' Lamar Jackson Land in Fantasy Football QB Rankings?

After Sunday's stellar performance against the Detroit Lions, Lamar Jackson is gaining some positive traction in fantasy leagues.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is one of the most explosive players in the NFL, and he is also one of the best quarterbacks to have on your fantasy team at this point of the season.

Jackson put up monster numbers last Sunday in a blowout win over the Detroit Lions, and he appears poised to continue that trend this week when his team faces the Arizona Cardinals. In this week's fantasy football quarterback rankings, NBC Sports placed Jackson at No. 3 on their list. 

Here's what the publication had to say about the Ravens signal caller:

"At long last, Lamar Jackson put it all together in Week 7 against Detroit. L-Jax has consistently been in the QB6-8 range. Now he might finally make a run at the top 3-4. The Cardinals are a beautiful place to get a hot streak going after last Sunday’s Lions destruction."

Last week against the aforementioned Lions, Jackson went 21-of-27 through the air for 357 yards and three touchdowns. He also contributed 36 rushing yards on nine carries and a score in that department as well as the Ravens dismantled Detroit 38-6 at home.

Can Jackson keep that level of play going this weekend? It may be a tall order to replicate those numbers, but he could be poised for another good game as the Ravens travel to face the 1-6 Arizona Cardinals.

Arizona's lone win of the season came in a Week 3 upset of the Dallas Cowboys, and it has dropped four games since that win. Kickoff between the Ravens and Cardinals is slated for 4:25 p.m. ET, and the game can be seen on CBS.
