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.”

2025 NFL MVP Stock Watch: Bo Nix has Broncos Streaking, Scrambling Into MVP Convo
Winners of 10 one-score games this season and riding an 11-game winning streak, it’s time to acknowledge the Denver Broncos are not the luckiest team in the NFL. Holding a 12-2 record, tops in the NFL, the Broncos are the best. And while the Broncos have one of the nastiest defenses in the NFL, one of the main reasons for Denver’s success has been the clutch performance of second-year quarterback Bo Nix. The Oregon product’s raw numbers aren't among the best in the league, but he's played well when it mattered the most, as he did against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. He threw for 302 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions, posting a season-high 134.7 passer rating in the 34-26 victory. Nix's 11 straight wins ties Lamar Jackson (2019), Peyton Manning (1999) and Dan Marino (1984) for the longest win […]
The reasons behind why Lionel Messi didn’t play during India tour
Lionel Messi's recent visit to India was framed as a landmark moment for football fans, and in many respects, it lived up to the hype. Over the course of three tightly scheduled days, the Argentine legend traveled across Kolkata, Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Delhi, attracting massive crowds wherever he appeared. For a country where elite football icons are rarely seen in person, Messi's presence alone was enough to spark nationwide excitement.Rodrigo De Paul did this next to Lionel MessiIn Delhi, the atmosphere was electric. Thousands filled the stadium not to watch a match, but simply to witness Messi walk onto the pitch. Fans chanted his name as he greeted supporters, signed jerseys, kicked footballs into the stands, and spent time interacting with young players.The energy intensified when he appeared alongside Inter Miami teammates Luis Suárez and Rodrigo De Paul, turning the […]
Megan Rapinoe blasts USMNT World Cup slogan, calls message misguided
Megan Rapinoe has taken aim at the U.S. men's national soccer team, criticizing its newly unveiled campaign slogan ahead of the 2026 World Cup.The former U.S. women's national team star said she was put off by the phrase "Never Chase Reality," arguing that it carries unintended and negative implications about the team's self-belief.Rapinoe shared her thoughts on a recent episode of A Touch More, the podcast she co-hosts with partner Sue Bird and sportscaster Katie Nolan."The team's slogan going into the World Cup - this was like their drop - and their slogan is 'Never chase reality,'" Rapinoe said. "I was like, guys, I don't think it's saying what you think it's saying."Rapinoe added that, to her, the phrase sounded as if the team already doubted its own level. "Why didn't we just stick with something like 'Dream big?'" she […]
Australia star Smith ruled out of third Ashes Test
Australian batsman Steve Smith has been ruled out of the third Ashes Test against England in Adelaide.Usman Khawaja replaces Smith, who captained Australia for the first two Tests. The third Test, which England must win to have any chance of regaining the Ashes, starts at 11.30pm UK time. "Steve's been feeling a little bit unwell the last couple of days. He came and gave it a crack this morning but didn't think he was going to be up for this one," said returning Australia captain Pat Cummins, who won the toss and chose to bat first."So he's headed off home but pretty lucky we've got someone like Usman who can step right in. He's going to bat four." Smith led Australia to eight-wicket wins in Perth and Brisbane in the absence of regular skipper Cummins. He hit the winning runs […]
