2026 Fantasy Football Player Profile
2025 Season Recap
Ashton Jeanty's rookie season was a tough look at the wrong time. He rushed for 975 yards and five touchdowns on 266 carries across all 17 games and led all rookie running backs in fantasy scoring with 245 PPR points, finishing as the RB11. Despite the historically bad Raiders offensive line that allowed a league-high 47 sacks, he was a reliable weekly starter and one of the better rookie backs in recent memory in terms of immediate fantasy impact.
2026 Fantasy Outlook
This is one of the most exciting upside plays in the draft. Jeanty comes in as the consensus RB5 entering his second NFL season, and the Raiders have addressed the offensive line, Fernando Mendoza brings dual-threat ability to the quarterback position, and Brock Bowers is one of the best tight ends in football. Remember what this kid did at Boise State. He was one of the most dominant college running backs in recent memory. The infrastructure is finally catching up to his talent level. The bull case is a top-three finish. The bear case is that the Raiders are still a work in progress. Either way, he is a first-round pick with legitimate league-winning upside.
