2022 Fantasy Outlook
Jacobs finished last season on a high note over the final month, but he didn't have a 100-yard
rushing game until Week 16 and fell shy of 1,000 yards for the first time in his career. His
mediocre 2.0 yards per carry after contact was about the same as the year before but a huge
decline from the 2.8 he managed as a rookie, and he averaged only 14.5 carries per game after
topping 18 both of his first two seasons. Jacobs also began to show some cracks in the passing
game, with five drops being as many as he had his first two years combined. The addition of
Josh McDaniels as head coach could help the entire Las Vegas offense, and WR Davante
Adams figures to be even more important. That could once again leave Jacobs in more of a
complementary role rather than being a focal point as he was under Jon Gruden, but it might
work out from a production standpoint if the Raiders are frequently in the red zone and their
fourth-year back doesn't lose too many carries to Kenyan Drake or fourth-round pick Zamir
White. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS

Hasn't signed tag
Jacobs hasn't signed his franchise tender and remains ineligible for OTA practices, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jacobs presumably wants a long-term contract before the July 17 deadline and hasn't commented on what he'll do if that doesn't happen. He's coming off the best season of his career and is the leader of an otherwise thin backfield, with Zamir White, Ameer Abdullah and Brandon Bolden the best bets to take first-team snaps while Jacobs is absent.

Rashee Rice isn't the only Chiefs wide receiver moving up draft boards this May. Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are slipping with WRs becoming more popular in the early rounds.

Jerry Donabedian compares May ADP results from four different best ball sites and finds that young WRs tend to be cheapest on DraftKings.

Jerry Donabedian lists the top free-agent signings at every position and breaks down contract details to see how teams truly value their new players.

Daniel Jones and Darren Waller should both benefit from Tuesday's developments, while the Raiders seem to be rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
Past Fantasy Outlooks

2020
2019
Jacobs' second season in the NFL was much like his first, for good and for bad. The 23-year-old runs with good power and balance, finishing sixth among RBs in broken tackles last year, but his tendency to run through contact rather than around it has contributed to a series of nagging injuries that have sapped his production without actually sidelining him. He's an adequate receiver and can fill a three-down role if needed, but he has room for improvement in that area, and coach Jon Gruden seemingly prefers to rest his lead runner in obvious passing situations. Jacobs' lack of breakaway speed was another issue last year, as he failed to produce a single carry of at least 40 yards. The Raiders' offensive line is also in the process of being completely rebuilt, forcing Jacobs to do more work for fewer yards. The team seemed to recognize some of those issues this offseason, but the solution doesn't look great for Jacobs' fantasy outlook, with Kenyan Drake joining the Raiders on a two-year, $11 million deal. Both backs are used to seeing significant touches in the red zone, with Jacobs leading the league in red-zone carries in 2020 while Drake finished fourth, and there won't be enough volume for both to thrive even if the Raiders mix in some dual-halfback sets. The two do possess complementary skill sets, so the tandem should improve the overall efficiency of the offense, but Jacobs may have trouble topping 300 touches again.
