Given the information that's available right now, Jeanty is still worth drafting relatively early. He may not still be deserving of first-round status given the injury concern, but the second-year back won't – shouldn't – fall past the second round. There's real RB1 upside from Jeanty this year if he returns early and stays healthy.

Jeanty shouldn't fall past Round 2 despite injury; real RB1 upside if healthy.

The source verdict is that Jeanty should not fall past the second round despite the ankle sprain injury concern. While he may no longer deserve first-round status due to the injury, the second-year back has real RB1 upside if he returns early and stays healthy. The source notes that Jeanty was a top-15 PPR producer in Year 1 despite poor rushing efficiency, and the Raiders' significant offensive upgrades (new center, improved QB situation, Kubiak as head coach) position him for a major leap in production.
