Re: Zamir White: My Favourite Sleeper RB

Still taking Cook, Pierce, the other White, and Robinson over him. I’d take him over Spiller, Pacheco, and Allgeier.

No doubt.
No problems here either: this was always a 2023 play. I'm just saying - if it arrives earlier (ie, this year) then it could be quite lucrative for us here in fantasy land.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Fri Aug 26, 2022 8:54 pm I doubt it, unless McDaniels doesn't like JJ tendency to reach the ball out (I can't stand it) when going over the top. He's lost it, or almost lost in, numerous times doing that. White is clearly in line for a role, and if he plays well enough, will likely be their 2021 version of "Damien Harris" next season.
Yeah, absolutely.
There's been talk of a 2-3 year offer. They didn't pick up the 5th year option (which looks like a mistake), but the tag isn't that much more. I expect them to tag him. I thought along your lines at the start of the year, as a big time Raiders fan who follows the team fairly closely, but I really think Jacobs is a Raider next year, IF Carr is. I think they either keep Carr and Jacobs, or let go of both and trade Adams etc. My bet right now is they are staying, but that may change depending on the results the rest of the way.ericanadian wrote: ↑Tue Nov 29, 2022 8:34 pm I can’t think of a running back the Patriots signed to significant money. McDaniels is his own guy, but I don’t see him moving off that approach. Zamir will likely get some competition, but also be given a shot.
It's the catches part of that that's really surprising and promising. It wasn't really something that was showcased in his game at Georgia, with James Cook taking the majority of that pass-catching work.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2024 1:14 am 3rd Raider in history to rush for 100 yards twice in his first 4 starts.
84/397 and 1 TD, and 9 catches for 60 yards over 4 starts. With a weak RB class, and Jacobs likely gone, he could be a solid RB2 next season.
totally agree with all this, however Jacobs is loved by LV leadership there so i would be shocked if he departs but anything can happen. White has proven he should get a shot...lets just see how the Raiders play this think out. they are one of more unpredictable franchises historically.mild wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2024 3:09 amIt's the catches part of that that's really surprising and promising.

Crossing our fingers for this guy. Without a doubt - if he can fall into the role next year with a Jacobs departure, then I really like his chances to be relevant in fantasy.
Jacobs sat out the last 3 games, and that was likely for his personal benefit. Had he gutted it out week 18 vs the Broncos, maybe, but I don't see it. He held out, made posts on Twitter against the Raiders etc. I don't see them giving him a deal. I'd hope not, as a fan, and I love Jacobs, and don't disagree with his stance on things. I just think Zamir and a 12+ million dollar defender/OL help, etc are a better alternative.TheTroll wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2024 10:56 pmtotally agree with all this, however Jacobs is loved by LV leadership there so i would be shocked if he departs but anything can happen.

Agreed. It's a definite feather in the cap, for his potential upside. Not saying he's going to be a 50-60 catch back, but if he's the early down guy and can tack on 30-40 grabs, that's a viable guy in your lineup. He gets the GL and early down work, he's good at it. Even without being the 3rd down back, he's showing he can chip and then get out and take a check down, on early down passes. He had a 5 reception game vs the Colts. That's something.mild wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2024 3:09 amIt's the catches part of that that's really surprising and promising.
