Profile

Billings started 2015 with a hamstring injury and in his first five games his fantasy score increased each week culminating in a 22 disposal, 7 mark, 4 goal effort vs the Bulldogs. A hot spot in his shin ruled him out after Round 10 but he had already done enough to show he had potential as a fantasy forward. Billings' spread of stats is good, he only needs a low 20's disposal count to get a decent fantasy score due to his solid marking and tackling numbers. If he can continue his progression in those areas and find some more goals then there's no reason why his average can't rise into the low 90's. Based on this year's rankings that would put him just inside the top ten averaging forwards and a legitimate possibility of being a keeper. Jack's injury history is of some concern and I question whether he'll be able to really bust out and be a huge fantasy win but I think there's enough positive signs for him to be considered as a forward POD.

Pros - On the rise, will benefit from a full season, suggestions of more midfield time

Cons - History of injuries

Prediction - 88-93
