Unbreakable Beasts: NFL Draft's Top Running Backs Who Defy Tackling
1. Ashton Jeanty, Boise State
Standard worries about drafting a running back in the first round simply should not apply to Jeanty. The 2024 Heisman Trophy runner-up is as good as everyone says, and his numbers are comical.
Jeanty leads our group with 0.295 missed or broken tackles per touch. He also leads by miles in the counting stats âbroken tackles forcedâ and âmissed tackles forced,â with a combined 97.
Jeanty isnât just slippery, heâs durable enough to make defenders miss again and again, even as he carries a heavier load than other running backs. His 374 carries last year led FBS college football by 64, and he averaged nearly 7.0 yards per carry while gaining 2,601 overall (the second-most rushing yards in an FBS season to Oklahoma Stateâs Barry Sanders with 2,628 in 1988).
