The Facts: The Raiders raised some eyebrows last week when they signed Drake to a two-year, $14.5 million contract as a free agent despite the presence of Josh Jacobs on their roster. Drake said that he was sold on joining the team because of how HC Jon Gruden pitched him on being "a playmaker in a lot of facets of the game."
Diehards Line:
During an appearance on SiriusXM NFL Radio, Drake returned to that theme while discussing his ability to make plays in space and said he thinks it makes him the right backfield partner for Josh Jacobs. "I think what our styles kinda complement each other the most with is his bruising, attacking ability and my ability to do the same with a little bit more pace in the open field," Drake said. "That would kinda give us almost a classic thunder and lightning type of feel. ..." The Raiders ranked in the top 10 in points and yards last season and Drake's arrival should help them repeat or better those efforts -- even if fantasy managers lose some clarity on Jacobs' role.
