    Fantasy football: Where to draft Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence

    By Nathan Beighle,

    2024-08-28

    Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence has been impressive in his 3 NFL seasons. While he maybe has not lived up to the hype of being the No. 1 overall pick in the 2021 draft, Lawrence has been a consistent weapon for Jacksonville. He earned a Pro Bowl nomination in his 2nd season, and although he took a step back in 2023, Lawrence has top-10 QB potential. The signal-caller is intriguing in terms of fantasy value.

    Below, we look at Trevor Lawrence’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

    Trevor Lawrence’s ADP: 95.02

    (ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com ; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

    Lawrence has an ADP of 95.02 in redraft leagues, which puts him in the range of the 7th to 9thround, depending on the size of your league. His ADP is lower than his teammate, WR Brian Thomas Jr. (92.35), though.

    Among QB, Lawrence’s ADP puts him 15th at the position, behind Brock Purdy (San Francisco 49ers, 86.70), Tua Tagovailoa (Miami Dolphins, 83.00) and Caleb Williams (Chicago Bears, 77.34), and slightly ahead of Jared Goff (Detroit Lions, 95.51) and Drake Maye (New England Patriots, 106.63).

    Where should you draft Lawrence?

    Lawrence’s fantasy value should get a boost from the addition of Thomas Jr. and former Bills’ 1st-round pick WR Gabe Davis . However, Lawrence did lose a few weapons as well.

    Lawrence’s 2024 fantasy value will entirely depend on which version of the former Clemson Tigers star fans get. Lawrence has the weapons around him to succeed, but needs to find the 2022 version of himself and not the 2023 one.  Lawrence had a career-best 25 TDs and 4,113 passing yards in 2022. He finished as the 7th-best QB in the fantasy world, and that’s absolutely a player who could consistently start in almost any size of league.

    Lawrence has been a winner his entire career and has an offseason to return to full strength after battling injuries last season. Those injuries could’ve been a main factor in performances that were well below his standards. Expect Lawrence, who has new and energized receivers around him, to be able to find his old self and be a top-10 QB by the end of the season.

    Take Lawrence in the 8th round and bank on him returning to form. If you’re a manager who likes to wait on QB, Lawrence will be the perfect late-draft target. Expect him to top 4,000 passing yards and get at least 25 TDs.
