Fantasy Football: Evaluating Josh Jacobs' Move to Green Bay

00:00All right, from one offensive ecosystem of San Francisco, a high ranked one, we go to
00:08another one in Green Bay, and yet we find a fantasy bus there in the backfield, Joe.
00:13Yeah, as an RB1, I don't love Josh Jacobs.
00:16The volume that he's had to deal with in Las Vegas took its toll, I think.
00:21Another guy that had 400 plus touches a couple of years ago, right?
00:24And then last year, it was underwhelming.
00:26And yet everybody tells me I shouldn't be worried about that when it comes to CMC.
00:30Well, CMC is not Derrick Henry physically, so I'm worried about it.
00:33He's already got a calf issue.
00:34But back to Jacobs, Green Bay is a team historically that likes to spread the ball around in the
00:39backfield.
00:40I know Marshawn Lloyd's dealing with a bit of an injury now.
00:42But even when Aaron Jones was healthy, we'd see AJ Dillon for some reason.
00:45And Josh Jacobs is already dealing with a groin issue.
00:48So whenever a running back gets jettisoned who isn't a guy like Derrick Henry who's going
00:52to the Hall of Fame, you should kind of be aware of what that downside is.
00:58As an RB2, I understand Josh Jacobs.
01:00Good offense, lock it in there.
01:02But once again, Matt, I keep coming back to the same thing, which is the overall ADP of
01:06this player to me is troubling.
01:09I'd rather be looking for Malik neighbors or guys of that nature than necessarily trying
01:14to reach on Josh Jacobs.
01:17I just don't think that's as good of a pick at the end of the day.
