FantasyPros Articles on Ashton Jeanty
From the article
Jeanty is nursing an ankle injury already, and it's unclear exactly how much time he is going to miss. Add in a rookie quarterback and an offense devoid of any other elite talent, and this offense is likely to struggle heavily. Jeanty is going to be the bellcow when he is healthy, but that may not mean much in this offense.
STACKED’s take
Jeanty's ankle injury and rookie QB make back-end first-round ADP unsustainable.
Aaron St Denis (Fantasy Sports Advice Network) identifies Jeanty as the biggest bust of the season at ADP 15.7 (RB10), arguing that price is far too early. At that price, there are far safer picks at both running back and wide receiver that also have his upside. Jeanty is nursing an ankle injury with unclear recovery timeline, and he enters a rookie quarterback offense devoid of any other elite talent, making the offense likely to struggle heavily. While Jeanty will be the bellcow when healthy, that may not mean much in this offense. St Denis was already of the stance that Jeanty needed to play every game to meet his ADP; missed time due to ankle injury makes him a long shot to return that value. Jeanty should be a third-round pick.
