KC Chiefs: Removing one player from each AFC West rival

Who would KC Chiefs remove from each AFC West team?

Las Vegas Raiders – Josh Jacobs

Without a doubt, the best offensive player on the Raiders’ roster is running back Josh Jacobs. The Raiders took Jacobs in the first round of last year’s draft and he rewarded them by rushing for a total of 1,150 yards and seven touchdowns through 13 starts.

Though he did miss time due to injury, Jacobs carried the Raiders’ offense and they’re hoping he can do the same thing in their inaugural year as Las Vegas residents. This will be a big year for the Raiders, as they’re in a new city and even though they might not get to play in front of fans, a lackluster year could easily get the fans less interested in the team.

Taking Jacobs away from the Raiders means that Derek Carr is going to have to do everything on offense and we all know how that usually goes for them, especially against the Chiefs. Jacobs rushed for 99 yards and 104 yards in his two games against the Chiefs, so taking that kind of player out their offense and making Carr beat KC is the best decision here.

There wasn’t anyone who jumped out enough on Las Vegas’ defense and removing a rookie from the team seems premature. Jacobs is the obvious pick because he makes the Raiders offense what it is.
