And that's a wrap. The Raiders have now signed every member of their 2019 NFL draft class.
No. 24 overall pick Josh Jacobs formally inked his rookie deal on Tuesday, the team announced, a four-year deal slotted to pay $11.9 million over four seasons. That sum includes a $6.69 million signing bonus, and there's a fifth-year team option standard for all first-round draft picks.
The Jacobs deal comes three weeks after the Raiders signed their other two first-round draft picks, Clelin Ferrell and Johnathan Abram.
There's rarely drama in these deals, with a rigid rookie wage scale established in this collective bargaining agreement that compensates players based upon draft slot.
Jacobs was drafted using one of two first-round picks acquired from Chicago on Sept. 1, 2018 for Khalil Mack. There's another first-rounder coming next year, though the Raiders had to give up a second-round pick to get it.
Jacobs is Oakland's feature back, possibly a three-down player who rarely needs a spell considering his diverse skill set. He can play physical running inside, break outside the tackles, catch passes in the pattern and pass protection.

Doug Martin and Jalen Richard are locks in reserve. DeAndre Washington and Chris Warren III are battling for a fourth running back spot if there is one.

Jacobs will spend the remaining offseason and training camp preparing for a heavy workload he never absorbed at the University of Alabama, but the Raiders believe he'll handle it well as a professional over the life of the rookie contract he'll play under now that it's officially signed.
