2025 NFL Mock Draft 

(3/24/2025)

First Round

  1. Tennessee Titans: Cam Ward, QB, Miami (FL)

The first overall selection will be Cam Ward in this draft. If the Titans choose not to take Ward, they will move it for a boatload of picks. As it stands now, it appears the Titans will stay at 1 and take Ward. He is NFL ready and can start early on in the season. The Titans have a lot of holes so they will need to surround him with upgrades along the offensive line.

  1. Cleveland Browns: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado

In a recent interview, Myles Garrett alluded to the Browns sharing with him a plan at quarterback that he was unable to convey. Now, Garrett has not always been afraid to mislead the media intentionally but in this scenario the Browns have been doing plenty of homework on their quarterbacks both in the draft and in free agency. I believe that in this scenario the Browns are committed to taking Sanders and building their team around him.

  1. New York Giants: Abdul Carter, Edge, Penn St.

With both quarterbacks off the board the Giants could very well go with their best player available and Abdul Carter would be a great fit. Carter is an elite pass rusher with exceptional athleticism and there is no doubt he is going to be a very productive player in the NFL. Kayvon Thibadeuax will be due for a sizable raise as his option will most likely be exercised for next year. The Giants could, and should, move him immediately after making this selection. 

  1. New England Patriots: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado

There are a variety of ways that the Patriots can go with this first overall selection. Hunter is supposedly on top of the Patriots wish list at both receiver and cornerback and gives them a player that not only they can utilize on both sides of the ball but can also sell some jerseys. 

  1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Mason Graham, DL, Michigan

The Jaguars could look to move down as they do have a few holes they need to fill but if they stay at 5, Mason Graham is a great pick. Graham is a game wrecker in the middle of the defensive line and is exceptional against the run and pass. 

  1. Las Vegas Raiders: Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise St.

The Raiders are set up to win now after hiring Pete Carroll and trading for Geno Smith. The defense is very good but they need to add some playmakers on offense. Ashton Jeanty is a very special running back who can do it all. 

  1. New York Jets: Armand Membou, OT, Missouri

The Jets brought in Justin Fields and they are going to need to protect him and someone to open holes up for Breece Hall. Membou has been flying up draft boards as he has had a great pre-draft process and his athletic ability will allow him to stay at tackle or slide into guard. 

  1. Carolina Panthers: Shemar Stewart, Edge, Texas A&M

Stewart had a great combine and a great week at the Senior Bowl. He is an incredible athlete who has all the tools to be a very good pass rusher. The Panthers need to find help along the defensive front and Stewart has a very high upside.

  1. New Orleans Saints: Jaxson Dart, QB, Mississippi

Derek Carr will not be Saint in 2026 and may not even make it to the start of 2025. Jaxson Dart is a polarizing prospect but he has all the tools to be a potential very good quarterback in the league. The Saints can get their quarterback of the future and build around him.

  1. Chicago Bears: Tyler Warren, TE, Penn St.

The Bears could go in a variety of directions. They really did a great job upgrading the offensive line early in the offseason but they could still look to find a tackle. Tyler Warren is a dynamic tight end who brings a different element to an offense. Cole Kmet is a very solid player but he holds a cap hit of $11.6 million each season for the next 3 years. 

  1. San Francisco 49ers: Will Campbell, OL, LSU

Campbell has been a reliable tackle for LSU and will make an excellent pro but his arm length is a concern for him sticking at tackle. He may be best served sliding inside and playing guard where he could be an All Pro.

  1. Dallas Cowboys: Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona

Jerry Jones needs to make a splash and pairing McMillan up with CeeDee Lamb gives the Cowboys one of the better duos in the NFL. McMillan is a tall, lanky receiver who can do a little bit of everything.

  1. Miami Dolphins: Tyler Booker, iOL, Alabama

The Dolphins need to upgrade the trenches and this pick being anything other than an offensive or defensive linemen is crazy. Tyler Booker is a strong, mauling guard and while he isn’t the most athletic, he has one of the best characters of anyone in the draft. He has an unbelievable work ethic and will be a starter for a long time in the NFL.

  1. Indianapolis Colts: Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas

Barron is a playmaker in the secondary and something that the Colts could use more of. They could look to add an interior offensive linemen or snag Tyler Warren if he falls here but Barron is a very good, versatile defensive back. 

  1. Atlanta Falcons: Jalon Walker, Edge/LB, Georgia

The Falcons need to find edge rushers and they may acquire one before the draft (ie Trey Hendrickson) but even if they do, adding another edge rusher should be high on their priority list. Jalon Walker was very good for the Bulldogs this year and has a high ceiling. 

  1. Arizona Cardinals: Will Johnson, CB, Michigan

WIll Johnson is a very good cornerback prospect but he has not been able to run yet and teams are weary of his lack of athleticism. If he has a good workout in April he may go higher.

  1. Cincinnati Bengals: Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina

The Bengals spend so much money on the offensive side they need to use a lot of draft picks on their defense. Emmanwori is a big, athletic freak of a safety who can play centerfield and move into the box. He can make a big impact in the middle of the field.

  1. Seattle Seahawks: Kelvin Banks, OT, Texas

The Seahawks could use an upgrade along the offensive line and Banks is worthy of being a top 10 pick. However, there are some that believe he needs to play guard in the NFL but either way he’s a good fit for Seattle.

  1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Mykel Williams, Edge, Georgia

Williams is another Bulldog who has a ton of athletic ability but his stats don’t jump off the page because of how good the entire team is. Williams has a high upside and is a great athlete who just needs to refine his pass rush technique. 

  1. Denver Broncos: Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina

The Broncos need to find players to surround Bo Nix to help elevate the team. Hampton is a great running back with good power and speed. He can do everything out of the backfield but has been somewhat underrated because of Jeanty.

  1. Pittsburgh Steelers: Walter Nolen, DL, Mississippi

This pick will be either a defensive lineman or possibly a quarterback. If the Steelers go with a lineman, the type of player they pick will depend on where they want Keeanu Benton playing. Nolen is a complete tackle who can do everything and specializes in getting into the backfield. 

  1. Los Angeles Chargers: Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan

Harbaugh knows how good Loveland is and what a difference he can make for the Chargers. His injury pushes him down draft boards a little but his upside makes him a near lock for a first round selection.

  1. Green Bay Packers: Matthew Golden, WR, Texas

The Packers have some good receivers, but not many great ones. Matthew Golden adds a vertical threat with his blazing speed that the team needs. Golden paired with Reed, Watson and Doubs would give Jordan Love a deep receiving corps. 

  1. Minnesota Vikings: Derrick Harmon, DL, Oregon

The Vikings added Javon Hargrave and Jonathan Allen in via free agency. However, both missed significant time in 2024 and both are not signed to long term deals (2 and 3 years respectively). The Vikings are very high on Harmon and have been strongly connected to him. 

  1. Houston Texans: Kenneth Grant, DL, Michigan

The Texans could very well go with an offensive linemen with this pick as they are doing a total revamp but they already have brought in 5 new players. Along the defensive line they could use an upgrade and Grant is a very big but surprisingly athletic big man who can stuff the run.

  1. Los Angeles Rams: Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama

Campbell is a versatile linebacker who can rush the passer and drop into coverage. He is capable of covering tight ends and linebackers but also be an effective blitzer. He can certainly go much higher but a team needs to know how they are going to utilize his talents.

  1. Baltimore Ravens: Mike Green, Edge, Marshall

The Ravens need to add some help on the edge and Green is a perfect fit for their defense. He led FCS in sacks and had a great combine showing his athleticism. He is another guy who could go in the middle of the first round. 

  1. Detroit Lions: Donovan Ezeiruaku, Edge, Boston College

The Lions don’t have a lot of glaring needs but they just need to stay healthy. Aidan Hutchinson was on pace to be the defensive player of the year in 2024 prior to his injury. The Lions could use another pass rusher and Ezeiruaku is a very good compliment to Hutchinson. Ezeiruaku was very good for Boston College in 2024. He is a quick, twitchy athlete who can get into the backfield very quickly. 

  1. Washington Commanders: Azareye’h Thomas, CB, Florida St.

The Commanders are doing a good job of putting together a complete roster. Thomas was one of the few bright spots on a disappointing Seminole team and he was often avoided in the passing game. He did run a disappointing 40 at his Pro Day which could see him slip to round 2. He is, however, an extremely talented cornerback. 

  1. Buffalo Bills: Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky

The Bills could use a bit of a youth movement in the secondary and Hairston has great athletic ability and can move around the defense. He is a good fit for McDermott and what the Bills like to do.

  1. Kansas City Chiefs: James Pearce, Edge, Tennessee 

The Chiefs usually aren’t scared off by off the field concerns and while Pearce is an extremely talented pass rusher, his character is a concern for teams. If he can get good leadership (from a guy like Chris Jones) then he can be very successful in the NFL. 

  1. Philadelphia Eagles: Josh Conerly, OT, Oregon

Lane Johnson is still a very good right tackle, one of the best in the league. But he will be 35 in May and his best football is behind him. Conerly can serve as his heir apparent and not be forced into starting right away.
