Oakland Raiders RB Josh Jacobs has earned a 85.6 season grade from Pro Football Focus, which ranks as the highest so far among the first-round picks from the 2019 NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: Just turn on the film and you can see that Jacobs can play at a high level in the pros. As his rookie season continues, we could see him used more as a receiver out of the backfield. Jacobs is a solid RB2 for Fantasy GMs on a weekly basis. |
