From the article

The Las Vegas Raiders are projected to win somewhere around four games this year, which is far lower total than any other first-round talent we've talked about would be facing. Jeanty ranked 48th out of 49 running backs with 100+ attempts in yards before contact per attempt.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jeanty's 4-win Raiders environment and 48th-ranked yards before contact limit first-round value.

While Jeanty has undeniable upside, the Raiders are projected to win only around four games this year—far lower than any other first-round talent—and losing environments rarely breed league-winners; Jeanty entered the league on a poor team with a dead-last PFF offensive line that allowed 47 sacks (no other team gave up more than 35), leaving him ranked 48th out of 49 RBs with 100+ attempts in yards before contact per attempt, though he ranked 17th in yards after contact per attempt with nearly two-thirds of his 975 yards coming after contact.
