After finishing as Fantasy's RB18 in just 13 games as a rookie, Josh Jacobs was the RB8 in 2020. Even with Kenyan Drake added to the mix, could Jacobs be a Fantasy value at his discounted average draft position of RB23 entering 2021? SportsLine's Fantasy expert Jacob Gibbs does not believe so, pointing to the fact that Jacobs' rushing efficiency dropped according to nearly every metric from 2019 to 2020. The only thing that changed was that he played more games and scored more touchdowns.
Still just 23 years old, Jacobs is clearly a top-25 Fantasy RB pick for Dynasty formats, but just how high should he be ranked at the position in season-long leagues with question marks surrounding his role entering 2021?
SportsLine Fantasy Football analyst Jacob Gibbs provides a data-driven deep dive to answer that question and address anything that stood out from his advanced statistical profile.
