Jeanty Opens as 2025 NFL OROY Favorites

It’s not a surprise to see Jeanty open as the favorite. The Boise State product is the most-sought-after running back prospect since Saquon Barkley, and Barkley’s exploits in the playoffs with the Super Bowl-champion Eagles have increased the premiums on running backs around the league.

It’s also much easier to integrate a tier-one running back into an offense than it is to integrate a rookie QB. Jeanty is going to be a huge part of the offense for whichever team drafts him (side note: the latest Ashton Jeanty odds heavily favor him going #5 to the Chicago Bears).

Also working in Jeanty’s favor is that the 2025 QB class is not good. Cameron Ward is the clear-cut #1 and is widely expected to go first overall to the Tennessee Titans, whose offense is in disarray. It’s much easier to see Jeanty turning a middling Bears attack into an upper-echelon unit than Ward transforming the Titans attack in his first season under center.

Hunter Listed Third Despite Positional Questions

It’s somewhat puzzling that dual-threat WR/CB Travis Hunter is the third favorite. Hunter has been adamant that he wants to play on both sides of the ball but there’s no doubt that he’s seen as a better cornerback prospect than wide receiver prospect. Whichever team takes him is almost certainly going to want him to play at corner. If they can use him on offense without sacrificing his effectiveness on defense, great. But that’s a big if.

There’s no way to be certain Hunter will get enough offensive snaps to warrant him being the third favorite in the 2025 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds.
