The Las Vegas Raiders suffered at the running back position in the 2024 season after boasting a top running back in Josh Jacobs for the past several years.

This season, though, the Raiders should again have an outstanding running back in the form of first-round pick Ashton Jeanty. The Raiders took Jeanty out of Boise State with the No. 6 overall draft pick with him instantly becoming a standout player right away.

It wouldn’t be a surprise if Jeanty becomes one of the best running backs in the AFC West
