Sharp take

Sharp SixNo action

A quarterback with a 187.0 season projection and a -140.5 value over replacement does not become startable by changing uniforms. Baltimore is a 10-point home underdog in a 39.5-point total, which is the opposite of a landing spot. The trade is reported, not confirmed, and he carries an Out tag into it. Leave him on the wire unless your quarterback room is down to one healthy body. Jackson stays stashed either way.
