One NFL franchise is gonna get its hands on one of the most prolific college running backs in decades.
Ashton Jeanty spent three years as a Boise State Bronco, and all he did was rack up 4,769 rushing yards and 50 touchdowns.
His 2,601 rushing yards this past season placed him second all-time on the single-season rushing yards list, just behind the legendary Barry Sanders, who rushed for 2,628 yards in 1988 at Oklahoma State.
Where will all that groundwork land Jeanty in the 2025 NFL Draft? Let’s see the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of March 24.
Which team will Ashton Jeanty be drafted by?
Raiders: +120 (bet $10 to win $22 total)
Bears: +130 (bet $10 to win $23 total)
Cowboys: +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total)
49ers: +1100 (bet $10 to win $120 total)
Saints: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)
Broncos: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)
When these odds opened, it was Dallas all the way.
Then, it was all about Chicago.
Now … not so much.
The Cowboys are now third on the oddsboard, and the Raiders are at the top, taking over the spot occupied by the Bears for over two weeks.
Dallas owns the 12th overall pick in the first round and the 44th overall pick in the second round. Chicago owns picks No. 10, 39 and 41.
Las Vegas owns picks No. 6, 37 and 68 over the first three rounds.
To say the Raiders struggled to move the ball on the ground last season would be an understatement. They were last in the league in rushing yards per game (79.8) and the only team in the league to average fewer than 80 yards per game on the ground.
Jeanty never had that problem in the college ranks, averaging 5.3 yards per carry as a freshman, 6.1 as a sophomore and 7.0 as a junior.
The first-team All-American and two-time Mountain West Conference Offensive Player of the Year also led the country in carries last year with 374.
In FOX Sports NFL analyst Rob Rang’s latest mock draft, he has Jeanty going sixth to Las Vegas.
“Now that the Raiders have Geno Smith at quarterback, addressing a rushing attack that averaged an NFL-worst 3.6 yards per carry would seem to be the next logical step,” Rang wrote. “Sure, this year’s running back class is deep enough to find a quality starting candidate later, but Jeanty is special — and nothing about the Raiders’ moves this offseason suggests they’re in the mood for patience.”
