Is Lamar Jackson greater than, lesser than or same as Michael Vick?
Obviously Vick is the best comp we have. Both are fast and elusive with strong arms.
I give the edge to Lamar. Their type of game is better suited to the NFL than when Vick came into the league.
He runs a lot but he's also really good at avoiding contact. The hardest hits he's taken this season have been in the pocket.
He's nothing like Mahomes and the comparison is unfair. But he might be better than any of the other young QB's over the next 5-7 years.
