Lamar Jackson goes to the Ravens in trade with Eagles

The Eagles traded their No. 32 selection to the Ravens, who selected Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Fantasy Impact:

And there it is. Everyone was expecting teams to trade-up for Jackson, but he fell to the point where the Ravens traded up to snag their insurance policy to Joe Flacco. It had been rumored that the Ravens were looking into quarterbacks a bit more than expected, so to see them take one shouldn't be shocking. He's not going to walk into the starting job any time soon, but the Ravens clearly have a plan for the future of their offense, signing Robert Griffin in free agency and drafting Jackson. He's unlikely to make any starts in 2018 without an injury to Flacco.
