Overview

  • Ashton Jeanty is widely regarded as the best running back prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft, projected to be selected between picks No. 6 and No. 12.
  • The Las Vegas Raiders are frequently cited as his most likely destination at No. 6, given their need to revamp the league’s worst rushing attack.
  • Jeanty’s 2024 season included 2,601 rushing yards, 30 total touchdowns, and leading Boise State to its first-ever College Football Playoff appearance.
  • He won the Maxwell and Doak Walker Awards in 2024 and finished as the Heisman Trophy runner-up, solidifying his status as a premier talent.
  • If selected in the top 10, Jeanty would become Boise State’s highest-drafted player since 2020 and its first first-round pick since 2018.
