Jeanty proved this season to be unquestionably the best offensive player in the nation with a Heisman worthy season (finishing as the runner up). With incredible contact balance, high end speed, excellent power, and the ability to perform as a pass catcher and a blocker, Jeanty has it all a team could be looking for in a three down back.
