Send an offer for Josh Jacobs

Jacobs was off to a strong start in Week 9 against the Lions. He was on pace for a career day as he had 102 total yards midway through the second quarter. But then everything went wrong for Green Bay.

Jordan Love threw a pick-six which put the Packers behind by two scores and they were never able to recover. This factored Jacobs out of the game as Green Bay was forced to pass more. Jacobs totaled just six yards in the final 2.5 quarters of play.

Now Jacobs enters his bye week. This has opened a nice buy-low window for him. Despite the poor second-half showing in Week 9, Jacobs has been great this season. He’s totaled 90+ yards in five straight games and he’s hit the 90 total yardage mark in 78% of his games this season. He’s been consistent this year as well, producing 12+ fantasy points in all but one contest this season. Jacobs will take on the Saints’ and Seahawks’ poor run defenses in the fantasy playoffs.

Trade someone like DeVonta Smith or Zay Flowers for Jacobs if you can.

Go get Ladd McConkey

McConkey had a fine day in Week 9. He totaled 64 yards on five catches while leading the team with seven targets. McConkey has now led the Chargers in targets in seven of his eight games this season. The rookie has been fantastic. He now ranks top 25 in both yards per route run and yards after the catch. These efficiency metrics are strong indicators of future success. McConkey has been able to get open at all levels of the field and he’s benefitting from the Chargers throwing more the past four weeks.

Over the first four games of the season, Justin Herbert was averaging just 22 pass attempts per game. But since the Chargers’ bye week, Herbert has averaged 32 pass attempts per game. The passing volume has increased in L.A. the past four weeks and so has the efficiency. Herbert is averaging 8.8 yards per attempt the past month of the season,…
