Ashton Jeanty has been on a rollercoaster of bad news since becoming a Raider. First, he had an awful Rookie season where he failed to play like an RB2 despite the ridiculous high ADP. However, the biggest new help on the offense is a rookie RB who is more talented than Jeanty: Mike Washington Jr. MWJ is a very explosive RB who looks ready to be a heavy part of the Raiders' offense after a big preseason; then Ashton Jeanty sprained his ankle.

Negative signalBust

Jeanty's ankle injury and Mike Washington Jr. competition eliminate bellcow upside.

Muntradamus (Beast Dome) reports Jeanty has been on a rollercoaster of bad news since becoming a Raider. In his awful rookie season, he failed to play like an RB2 despite the ridiculously high ADP; BEAST DOME ranked Jeanty lower than every expert site in the 2025 preseason. Year two was supposed to be good with a new coach and new offensive help, but the biggest new help is rookie RB Mike Washington Jr., who is more talented than Jeanty and looks ready to be a heavy part of the Raiders' offense after a big preseason. Then Jeanty sprained his ankle. There is zero chance Jeanty gets a huge load of carries this season. Despite all this negative news, Jeanty is still going Round 1/2.
