Tom Brady - English
Ashton Jeanty will finally play in the NFL for the Las Vegas Raiders, dashing the Dallas Cowboys‘ hopes of securing a Running Back to bolster Dak Prescott’s offensive firepower. This decision, logically, must have been influenced by Tom Brady.

The Top Running Back of the 2025 Class Heads to Las Vegas… Not Dallas
The former Boise State star’s name was long linked to the Cowboys. There was even talk of his connection to Texas, having played high school football in the state.
Jeanty starred at Lone Star High School in Frisco, Texas, where he rushed for 1,843 yards and 41 touchdowns in his senior year. However, his professional career-following a stellar tenure at Boise State-will begin with the Raiders in Las Vegas under Pete Carroll, a coach known for heavily utilizing the ground game.
Thus, one of the Dallas Cowboys’ primary targets slipped away. While the Draft still offers strong prospects to address this offensive need, it’s clear the team has other areas to improve as well.
Ashton Jeanty fell just 27 yards short of surpassing Barry Sanders’ iconic NCAA single-season rushing record of 2,628 yards, amassing an impressive 2,601 yards and 29 touchdowns on the ground. A Heisman Trophy finalist and the previous season’s runner-up, Jeanty also guided the Boise State Broncos to a Mountain West Conference championship and their historic first appearance in the College Football Playoff.
As one of the most captivating prospects in the NFL Draft, Jeanty sparked widespread excitement, particularly as the Running Back position has surged back into the spotlight with stars like Saquon Barkley and Derrick Henry redefining its value.
Notably, Jeanty became only the second Running Back selected in the Top 10 of the NFL Draft in the past six years, following former Texas Longhorns standout Bijan Robinson, who was chosen eighth overall by the Atlanta Falcons in 2023.
According to Andrew Brandt, Ashton Jeanty, selected as the 6th overall pick in the NFL Draft, is set to sign a fully guaranteed rookie contract valued at approximately $32 million. This deal positions him as the second-highest-paid running back in the NFL in terms of guaranteed money, trailing only the league’s elite at the position. However, from a salary cap and contract perspective, drafting a running back this high is often considered a low-value investment due to the position’s shorter career spans and the availability of cost-effective talent in later rounds.
