The running back position has been devalued in the NFL in recent years Jacoby Brissett Jersey Stitched , but one running back appears poised to be snapped up no later than the end of the first round.Alabama running back Josh Jacobs has been mocked to draft slots in the 20s in most mock drafts, with the Raiders (who own picks 24 and 27) appearing to like him and the Eagles and Colts (25th and 26th) high on him as well.In his mock draft, Peter King projected the Raiders trading up to 21st to take Jacobs. Oakland may think it has to move up to 24 to keep some other team from leapfrogging it.The Raiders are reportedly poised to do something surprising Malik Hooker Jersey White , but taking Jacobs at No. 4 overall would be stunning, not just surprising.Still, for as much as the NFL has become a passing league and not a running league Darius Leonard Jersey , teams continue to draft running backs. Last year Saquon Barkley went second overall, Rashaad Penny 27th and Sony Michel 31st. Jacobs surely won’t go as high as Barkley did last year, but he seems likely to be off the board as early as Penny was last year. Safety Eric Berry didn’t practice the last two days Peyton Manning Jersey , but the Chiefs aren’t ruling him out of Sa ... ay afternoon’s game against the Colts.Berry has been listed as questionable to play due to the heel injury that’s left him on the sideline for most of the year. Berry missed the first 13 games of the season and then sat out on the final Sunday of the regular season as a result of the injury.Chiefs head coach Andy Reid intimated that Berry is day-to-day earlier on Thursday, but it certainly doesn’t look as if he’s likely to play this weekend.Wide receiver Sammy Watkins and running back Spencer Ware are also listed as questionable. Watkins missed six of the final seven games of the year with a foot injury, but was able to practice every day this week. Ware also practiced each day as he tries to return from a hamstring injury.Linebacker Dorian O'Daniel rounds out the injury report. He’s listed as doubtful due to calf and ankle issues.
