He’ll be in the mix, but likely as the pass catching/change of pace. It will be interesting to see if Chris Warren is given an opportunity.
This would be a nice keeper consolation prize for me if Tyreek ends up crashing and burning.
Agree -- Richard is best used as a COP and is a proven passing down back.
So you like the Oakland landing spot for Jacobs? For Oakland in real life or Jacobs in fantasy?
The Raiders will definitely use one of their picks on a runningback, suppose it's a 1st or 2nd? Seems to me likely the Raiders back to own isn't on the roster yet. Tough to count on an UFA without a real carry.

Warren is going to get a shot but the Raiders will likely draft a RB in the first 3 rounds that becomes the starter. Well, starter in a committee with Richard.
I think only Warren, Richard and Washington (if he's still even there) are currently under contract.
What? - the point being of course they will be adding more RBs in either FA or the draft. I also do not think anyone sees any of these guys as the Raiders feature back (expect for maybe a few Warren believers).
You may be right, but as a non-betting man, I'd be willing to bet on Warren taking over 1st and 2nd down duties in the Raiders backfield -- if not this next year (if Lynch, Martin, etc. resign) than certainly in the future.
Seriously what is wrong with Warren if true. You have a chance to be in the mix for a starting job if you show up in the best shape of your life. But instead of doing that you show up weighing 270 pounds??? That’s absurd.
For no-one , really. Just think Oakland is the team that would waste a 1st on a guy like Jacobs.
They don't need another Jacobs on the squad -- Warren ballooning up, looks like he's trying to turn himself into Brandon Jacobs.
