The NFL draft is here, and the Raiders made their pick at six. They brought in Boise State star running back Ashton Jeanty to help a running game that underperformed in 2024. Now, with Jeanty as the lead rusher, the expectations for improvement in the run game should be sky high.
With Chip Kelly as the offensive coordinator, it could lead to fireworks for the offense. Jeanty ran for 2601 yards and 29 touchdowns last season, and Kelly will have great ball carriers to build his offense around.
