From the episode

It's difficult to me for Jacobs of production-wise, because last year was... It was volume and touchdowns. He was... Overall, he was not efficient. Like, many, many games under four yards a carry... They're the 31st ranked offensive line as of seven hours ago on PFF... I am not nearly as optimistic on Jacob's outlook as you guys. I think that's a bit too high. I would have him around in the 20s.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jacobs' inefficiency and weak Raiders O-line suggest he's overvalued at RB16.

The source expresses skepticism about Jacobs' ranking, noting his inefficiency last year despite high touchdown volume; he averaged many games under four yards per carry and wasn't the same player despite scoring at an outrageous clip. With the Raiders' offensive line ranked 31st as of week seven (down from 6th in 2024), the source believes Jacobs should be ranked in the 20s rather than 16th overall at running back.
