A brand new mock draft
The 2025 NFL Draft is right around the corner, and there are plenty of big questions we have about this class. Is Cam Ward truly worthy of the No. 1 overall pick? Is Shedeur Sanders undervalued at this point? Does Jalen Milroe sneak his way into opening night?
This class is much more than just the quarterbacks, however. Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty is undoubtedly one of the best players in this group, but where will he be selected? The same can be said about Penn State tight end Tyler Warren, who will immediately help any offense as a pass catcher. There are a number of polarizing defensive prospects as well. Is James Pearce an elite EDGE in this class, or will the University of Tennessee product fall due to character concerns? What about Georgia’s Jalon Walker? Does he have the frame to be a full-time pass rusher?
Below, I will release my only NFL mock draft, which should contain a few surprises. If you would like to view seven-round mock drafts for each NFL team, make sure you click here.
