From the article

Mike Washington Jr. is performing materially better...34 vs. 98 carries is starting to feel like a more valid sample size...I'm still not convinced Washington can be a lead back, but adding an extra draft pick to fill another hole while still having someone who can tote the rock would be hard to pass up.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Washington outperforming Jeanty with 98 carries, but Ojomo unsure if he's a lead-back solution.

Washington is outperforming Jeanty with 98 carries vs. Jeanty's 34. While defenses play Washington more favorably (20.6% of carries against heavy box vs. Jeanty's 41.8%), he's breaking more long runs and posting better efficiency (66.1% of yards after contact vs. Jeanty's 78.9%). However, Ojomo is not convinced Washington can be a lead back long-term, though adding draft capital while retaining a capable backup would be valuable for the Raiders.
