Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty is widely expected to be selected among the top 10 picks in the upcoming 2025 NFL draft. But one NFL general manager doesn't believe he's getting enough hype.

He said, 'No, no, no. You don't understand. This guy is a superstar. People are talking about him like he's a really good player, maybe a great player. He is a superstar. He is a day one 1,500-yard guy.'"
