Breece Hall vs Josh Jacobs

“Gamers are still operating with one foot in and the other out on Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson, but the upside potential is still on the table.”

“Breece Hall (NYJ) — ECR: RB16 | Projection Rank: RB13 | Projected FPTS: 229.8 Breece Hall had a tough time last year despite finishing as the RB20 in fantasy points per game. New York’s quarterback play was dreadful, and the offense overall was a mess, which led to them ranking 29th in points per game and red zone scoring opportunities per game.”

“Hall should see an increase in targets, especially considering Ashton Jeanty saw 69 targets with Smith under center for the Raiders last season. If Hall sees more opportunities in the passing game, his receiving role alone justifies taking him in the dead zone.”

“Specific round targets mentioned include Breece Hall and Javonte Williams in round three, and Cam Akers and David Montgomery in round four, with DeAndre Swift as a round five option.”

“With Geno Smith commanding the offense, this may be the most stable quarterback Hall has played with in his young career. That said, we are also coming off a horrific season for Smith with the Raiders in 2026.”

“Do keep that in mind when you draft Wilson and Hall because if you are aiming for ceiling, you might airball.”

“Breece Hall blows his RB14 ADP out of the water and finishes as a top 5 back. Hall quietly logged 243 carries (11th in the NFL) and 17.4 touches per game last season despite playing in one of football's least efficient offenses, yet found the end zone just five times on 291 opportunities, a glaring positive regression candidate.”

“Hall is also due for some positive regression in the passing game. After catching 76 passes in 2023 and 57 in 2024, he was held to just 36 last season. Hall still posted the third-best yards per reception among running backs last season.”

“The projections call for more than 1,500 total yards, nearly 50 receptions, and close to double-digit touchdowns. Hall remains one of the league's most efficient runners on a per-touch basis.”

“Their rebuild just so happens to be consuming Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson, plus the addition of Sadiq and Cooper.”

“Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell complimented Jets GM Darren Mougey on how they handled some of their internal situations, including getting their running back Breece Hall re-signed.”

“The Jets signed RB Breece Hall to a three-year, $45.75 million extension this offseason. Hall expressed confidence about the team's direction, saying "Getting that nucleus paid and having that core group of guys that they're investing in that they expect to change the franchise, it means a lot for us."”

“1 | Diff: +5 Josh Jacobs has been the RB8 and RB9 in fantasy points per game during his two seasons in Green Bay.”

“31 10 21 James Cook 13 5 8 Josh Jacobs 7 15 -8 Saquon Barkley 2 13 -11 Bucky Irving 10 33 -23 In past years, so many top RBs have gotten hurt that the Zero (or hero) RB draft strategies have become popular.”

“Running Back For the RB1 cutoff, one analyst goes as deep as Josh Jacobs around RB15, while the other draws the line one tier earlier at Derrick Henry.”

“Josh Jacobs (RB – GB) Josh Jacobs finds himself in a similar situation to Saquon Barkley, but for very different reasons. Unlike Barkley, who has a new offensive coordinator and is on a team primed to bounce back from top to bottom, Jacobs finds himself in a very similar situation to last season.”

“The swift decline in Josh Jacobs' market value has everything to do with the legal cloud hanging over him. He was arrested in late May on domestic violence allegations. While he was later released, prosecutors say the investigation is still ongoing.”

“With starting running back Josh Jacobs entering his age-28 stride, and also being the alleged perpetrator of domestic violence, Lloyd may finally get a shot to play meaningful snaps for the Packers.”

“Josh Jacobs might be the biggest value in early fantasy football drafts. Despite finishing as a productive fantasy back last season, Jacobs is currently being drafted outside the top 12 running backs in many formats. The case is simple: Green Bay trusts Jacobs near the goal line, he remains heavily involved as an early-down runner, and his receiving floor is underrated.”

“Josh Jacobs at 299 [college touches] is one of only two other backs who had fewer than 400 college touches and were first-round picks.”

“Josh Jacobs' legal situation makes things a bit cloudy for the upcoming season, but it's never a bad thing to stockpile running backs.”

“Jacobs will be subject to the league's personal conduct policy and will likely face a suspension ahead of the 2026 season, pending the league's internal investigation.”

“Jacobs' attorneys announced that their client "vehemently denies" the allegations against him: "Josh vehemently denies the allegations, and this matter is in the early stages of investigation with important evidence that has not yet been made public."”

“Jacobs turned himself in to the Hobart-Lawrence Police Department in Wisconsin after the incident occurred on Saturday, May 23.”
