Boise’s Ashton Jeanty Pens Heartfelt Letter to NFL Scouts, GMs

Boise State football has wrapped up a very successful season during which the team played dominant, made the first-ever College Football Playoff bracket, and saw their star player do what nobody has come close to since the days of Kellen Moore--get an invite to the Heisman Trophy Ceremony.

That star player, Ashton Jeanty, made quite a name for himself and for Boise State University.

Some fans consider Boise State standout Ashton Jeanty--a KING! 

It's tough to disagree, to be honest... 

Now, the NFL draft approaches and most experts say that there is no way Ashton Jeanty is 'on the board' for very long. Teams are going to want to scoop him up--if they have a need at Running Back (Jeanty's position).

Kellen Moore's New Orleans Saints would be a dream come true for many Boise State fans.

Jeanty has said that he'd love to play for Dallas--which is his home team.

Experts project he may end up with the Raiders in Las Vegas.

No matter where he goes--it's going to be early. Jeanty wrote a heartfelt open letter to managers ahead of the Draft that not only shows his heart--but shows just how much he's ready to play!

The letter is quite long--but our favorite part comes at the end. 

I truly believe I was born to do this. And I truly believe what makes me different — it isn’t about the position I line up at. It’s about the mindset I bring to it.

Those 11 dudes on defense … they’re on a football field playing football.

Me — in my mind? I’m still in the backyard with my friends, playing “no one can touch me.”

I’ve taken the long way. I’m done with that way. If you pick me, it’s simple: I’m coming to your franchise to do what Saquon and the Eagles just did. I’m coming to win, big, soon.

It’s TACKLE football … you know what I’m saying?

I’d draft the guy they can’t tackle.

Honestly, does it get any more motivating than that!?
