Leon Jacobs, our 283rd ranked linebacker, is best suited to
be a depth backup. We project he will end up with the Detroit Lions because they
could use a player of this quality after losing Alex Anzalone for an extended period of time. The Lions
currently have 7 healthy linebackers, and 5 are
rated better than Jacobs: (Jack Campbell, Derrick Barnes, Jalen Reeves Maybin, Julian Okwara, and Malcolm Rodriguez).
The Lions currently have no
linebackers under contract beyond the 2027 season,
so Jacobs is probably looking at a one year deal, due to his rank, with the team.
