Rarely is the No. 24 pick overall the easiest pick to forecast in the 1st round, but that was the case this year with Jacobs and the #Raiders.

Jacobs can do it all and is just scratching the surface of his multi-dimensional skill-set.

#Raiders took the best safety on the board who plays like a LB on a slot receiver. Very good tackler who doesn’t miss. A downhill safety who can be moved all over the field and could be the second best special teams player entering camp.
— JT The Brick (@JTTheBrick) April 26, 2019
Another player on defense who better start
Abram's a versatile, hard-nosed safety who can do a bit of everything. He can cover and mix it up in the box.
— Scott Bair (@BairNBCS) April 26, 2019
#Raiders go safety at 27, Jonathan Abram. Looking at my old notes, Mayock once said that Abram "jumped out on film. He is flying around like a missile and arrives with an attitude."
