If Josh Jacobs and Saquon Barkley get long-term extensions, to live up to them, they’ll have to: Stay healthy and producing at a much higher level than potentially cheaper replacements — two feats rarely accomplished. ✍️ FB_FilmAnalysis

, teams kept their safeties deep, which benefited Jacobs, who simply lacked the long speed to create a lot of explosive plays according to Telemetry’s definition. His play speed ranked 44th out of 69 and has been on the lower end throughout his career. Though theoffense created space for him to run, when he did deal with penetration and unblocked players, he was exceptional at making multiple tacklers miss in tight spaces.

Barkley is almost the foil to Jacobs. He doesn’t break a lot of tackles, but he’s explosive in the open field. Barkley ranked 19th out of 69 in rushing explosiveness and 16th out of 64 in play speed. Barkley looked like he was breaking tackles at a higher rate in the beginning of the season, but as it wore along, he struggled to do so. He ranked 54th out of 70 in rushing elusiveness.His carries were also cut down as the season progressed. From weeks 1-10, Barkley averaged 19.8 carries per game.

Unsigned Raiders running back Josh Jacobs was absent from mandatory minicamp as he seeks a new contract. “I think they’ll be similar, if they get done, with Jacobs more productive last season obviously, but Barkley carries the draft status cache ,” Spielberger said. “I’d say first guy to get signed gets around $13 million per year and then the second will get just above that, between $13 -$14 million, on a three- or four-year term. If four years, total guarantee right in the $30 million range.”makes sense. Henry signed a four-year, $50 million deal with $13.5 million guaranteed.
