Ashton Jeanty is projected to be selected by the Las Vegas Raiders with the No. 6 overall pick in the upcoming draft. The team is looking to improve its struggling running game after finishing last in rushing yards and yards per carry in 2024. New general manager John Spytek aims to build a strong team by focusing on the run game and solid offensive lines, similar to the Philadelphia Eagles' strategy. Jeanty, a former Boise State running back, had a successful college career with impressive rushing and receiving stats. If drafted, Jeanty would provide the Raiders with a versatile offensive option. He recorded 4,769 rushing yards and 80 receptions during his college years, making him a potential key player for the team's rebuilding efforts.
