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.”

England make inroads to keep Ashes hopes alive despite superb Carey century
Alex Carey's superb century led Australia to 326-8 as a spirited England bowling display kept the tourists' faint Ashes hopes alive on the first day of the third Test in Adelaide.Trailing 2-0 in the five-match series after heavy defeats in Perth and Brisbane, England's hopes of making an unlikely comeback suffered a further blow when returning Australia captain Pat Cummins won the toss to earn the home side first hit in batting-friendly conditions. However, Ben Stokes' side defied the baking heat and seemingly flat surface at the Adelaide Oval to take regular wickets, with only Usman Khawaja (82) - called into the side at the last moment as a replacement for the unwell Steve Smith - and Carey (106) making proper use of the conditions. Score summary - Australia vs England, third Ashes Test Australia 326-8 after 83 overs in […]

Mekies vows to maintain aggressive Red Bull approach in post-Horner era
Red Bull boss Laurent Mekies said his team will push Formula 1's rules "to the limit and sometimes beyond" as he insisted the Milton Keynes squad will remain aggressive under his leadership.Mekies made an impressive start to his tenure after replacing Christian Horner in July, overseeing an upturn in results that enabled Max Verstappen to come within two points of pulling off a historic title battle comeback. Under Horner, who had been in charge of the team since it joined the grid in 2005, Red Bull developed a reputation for particularly fierce competitiveness, while the Brit himself was engaged in several feuds with rival team bosses. Having worked across several teams - including Ferrari - and even for the governing body, the FIA, during his 25 years in Formula 1, Mekies is a popular figure with strong relationships all over […]
V Česku to nevyšlo. Na trenéra má teď políčeno finský šampion, který zabojuje o Ligu mistrů
Muž, jenž v dubnu oslaví padesátku, se v Česku ohřál necelý rok. V srpnu 2024 možná nečekaně nahradil na lavičce Mladé Boleslavi Davida Holoubka. Tehdejší většinový majitel a současný předseda FAČR David Trunda si od Brännströma sliboval budování základů pro budoucnost klubu nebo hlubší propojení A-týmu s mládeží.Švédský kouč s Boleslaví nakonec těsně neprošel do vyřazovací fáze Konferenční ligy a v domácí soutěži bojoval ve spodní polovině tabulky.Působení ve městě automobilů definitivně skončilo začátkem dubna, dvě kola před koncem základní části. „Andreas měl významný podíl na našich úspěších, posunu klubu i kvalitní prezentaci v evropské soutěži. Respektuji jeho rozhodnutí, které pramení z osobních důvodů,“ uvedl Trunda.Více než osm měsíců je Brännström bez trenérské pozice. To by se ale rychle mohlo změnit. Podle švédského webu expressen.se je v hledáčku úřadujícího finského šampiona KuPS.Klub z Kuopia se údajně zajímá také o Eldara Abdulice, tam je ale nápadníků daleko více. Mezi KuPS a Brännströmem už mělo dojít k úvodnímu […]
