Ashton Jeanty. The latest in a line of “generational” attacking players to enter the NFL. His college stats look like a video game. He plays like he’s in a video game. He can hit jukes, spins, stiff arms, and truck sticks faster than us average joes can move our thumbs across a controller.
He’s so good that a professional team felt compelled to buck the positional value mantras that dominate draft analysis. Running backs don’t matter? Don’t tell that to Jeanty, the Las Vegas Raiders, and, especially, don’t tell that to me.
