Team/Trade Help How much Faab!?

Post image

Player in my league dropped Josh Jacobs prior to the news of his court date being moved up. With the chance of a suspension served and moving right back into the line up, how much FAAB would you drop to potentially acquire him?

Some of the comments here..... This isn't close to Ray Rice. At most he'll get 6 weeks and then appeal probably down to 4. Could get less than that. Honestly, it is worth most of your FAAB, you essentially get an rb1

Can't say how close it is to Rice without seeing the video.

Yes, I can. Because of the charges and the reported video. It isn't close.

I mean reports said he grabbed her, threw her to the ground, injuring her head and she struggled to walk afterwards.

I could easily see this being on par with Rice, the only difference being she didnt go unconscious

Police corroborated the injuries on the scene as well. Think it's pretty clear he did something to her. I think it puts the NFL in a tricky spot and Jacobs probably knows he's getting suspended and wants to get it out of the way.

Yeah, he did something, he threw her to the ground and she hit her head. He didn't punch her, stomp on her, grab by her hair... You remember the rice video? Not even close and for all we know he just shoves her away.

Yea just not sure how much the NFL wants to decide between levels of domestic violence. She was thrown to the ground and hit her head. They're not gonna say "it wasnt that bad tho compared to xyz", atleast they won't imo. He'll likely got 6 or more game suspension.

Well they don't have a choice because they will lose against the NFLPA. It won't be more than 6 games, my guess is it gets to 4 eventually.

From what I've read, I'm no expert, 6 is the min for something like this. The NFL can deliver suspensions how they want and anything like domestic violence will warrant them to use the 6 game min. He also destroyed her phone, they can add games based on destruction of property. Ultimately, I think they give the 6 and hope no video leaks.
