1) Cam Ward, QB, Miami
Tennessee Titans
The Titans could go a lot of directions with the number one overall pick, but here they take the best QB in the 2025 draft class in Cam Ward.
Ward has a live arm with great accuracy and great composure in the pocket. He isn’t the most mobile QB, but he’s mobile enough to extend plays and make throws outside of the pocket. While he isn’t a top-three talent, his positional value makes him the No. 1 overall pick.
2) Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State
Cleveland Browns
Myles Garrett recently requested a trade out of Cleveland, and that leaves a massive need at EDGE. I previously had mocked Abdul Carter here, and that stays true in this mock.
Abdul Carter is the consensus best EDGE prospect in this class. He’s a freak athlete with elite speed off the line of scrimmage and elite bend. He’s got excellent play strength and physical toughness and is the most surefire prospect in this draft class.
3) Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
New York Giants
In previous mocks, I’ve had the Giants pass up on QB to take a better prospect, but here I have New York taking Shedeur Sanders.
I think Sanders is around a top-40 prospect. I don’t think he excels in any single trait, but he’s overall a consistent QB. He’s accurate and mobile enough but lacks big-time pro-football arm strength. The Giants take him with hopes that he can develop into a franchise guy.

4) Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
New England Patriots
The Patriots have holes all over their roster, and for that reason, they take a player that can play both ways.
Hunter can play both CB and WR, although I project him to be predominantly a cornerback. He’s an insane athlete with elite endurance and the most unique draft prospect of all time. He would come in and immediately make the Patriots better.
5) Mason Graham, IDL, Michigan
Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jaguars desperately need to fix their defense, and for that reason, they take the best defensive player available.
Mason Graham is an interior defensive lineman who is elite against the run. The former Wolverine also can effectively rush the passer and get after the quarterback. He’s a complete prospect at DT and should come in and start right away for the Jags.

6) Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State
Las Vegas Raiders
The Raiders would love to get their hands on a top QB in this class, but with both Sanders and Ward off the board, they opt to address their major need at running back.
While this may seem high for an RB, Jeanty is a top-5 talent in this draft class and will immediately be a top-tier Back in the NFL. Jeanty is a complete RB prospect. He can run the ball very well, he’s a receiving threat, and he’s great in pass pro. The Raiders boost their offense by picking him here.

7) Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona
New York Jets
The Jets are another team that could go a lot of different directions in the draft, but with some of the top QBs and defensive players off the board, I have them getting a receiver to potentially replace Davante Adams and Garrett Wilson, who might both leave New York this offseason.
McMillan is a terrific receiver talent with a good frame, solid route running, strong hands, and elite body control. He can track the ball well and consistently shows his ability to make contested catches. He goes to NY as a potential WR1 of the future.
8) Will Johnson, CB, Michigan
Carolina Panthers
This one’s simple. The Panthers had a horrible secondary last year, and they get a top corner in the class.
Will Johnson has the ideal CB frame. He’s got long arms, can run well, is fluid, and tracks the ball very well. He’s the most complete corner prospect in this class, and he’s consistently great on tape. Panthers pair him up with Jaycee Horn to drastically improve their secondary.
9) Mike Green, EDGE, Marshall
New Orleans Saints
The Saints could go offensive line or defensive line, but with Trevor Penning’s growth last season, I have New Orleans going with EDGE.
Mike Green is one of my favorite prospects in this class. He racked up 17.0 sacks with Marshall last year and demonstrated his ability to dominate top-tier talent at the Senior Bowl. The Saints take him to replace an aging Cam Jordan.

10) Will Campbell, OL, LSU
Chicago Bears
The Bears must protect Caleb Williams next season, and lucky for them, the best offensive line prospect has fallen in their lap.
Will Campbell was fantastic at left tackle his entire college career, but he has the ability to slide in and play guard at the NFL level. The Bears could use some help at both, and Campbell gives them options.

11) Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State
San Francisco 49ers
Trent Williams is aging at left tackle, and the 49ers have major problems at right tackle. They take Josh Simmons to help out their offensive line.
Simmons played left tackle for the majority of his college career but has the versatility to slide to right while Trent Williams is still in the league. This would be a great pick up for the 49ers to help their offensive line out.
12) Kelvin Banks, OL, Texas
Dallas Cowboys
Dallas would probably love to get Jeanty at this spot, but with him off the board, they opt to help their offensive line.
Kelvin Banks played left tackle at Texas, however, a lot of GMs project him at guard. I think he’s got the ability to play both and could start at tackle and then eventually slide inside to take over for Zach Martin.
13) Malaki Starks, SAF, Georgia
Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins need help on both the EDGE and in their secondary, so here they take the best player available.
Malaki Starks is my favorite safety in this class. He’s rangy, explosive, and is great running downhill in the run game. Overall, I think Starks is a top-10 prospect, and the Dolphins grab him at 13.
14) Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
Indianapolis Colts
With Tyler Warren falling this far and Starks off the board, the Colts have no other choice than to take the Penn State Swiss Army Knife.
Warren isn’t the most fluid route runner or even the best receiving TE in this draft class, but he can do everything on the football field. He played snaps at RB, WR, and even QB in college. He’s a great blocker and a weapon with the ball in his hands.

15) Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia
Atlanta Falcons
The Falcons must address their pass rush this offseason, so here they take a swing on Mykel Williams.
Williams isn’t the most pro-ready prospect, but his athleticism is through the roof. He reminds me a lot of Nolan Smith in the sense that he’s not the biggest guy or polished, but if you develop him correctly, he can be a superstar in this league.
16) Walter Nolan, IDL, Ole Miss
Arizona Cardinals
Arizona still has a lot of holes on their roster to fill before they can become true contenders, but they definitely must address defense.
Walter Nolan is a surefire home-run selection at defensive tackle. He’s not as physically dominant as Mason Graham is, but he is great against the run and wreaks havoc as a pass rusher. If he falls to 16, I don’t see the Cardinals passing him up.
17) Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas
Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals’ secondary was the worst in the NFL last season, so with this pick, they get the most technically-sound corner in this draft class.
Jahdae Barron isn’t going to test as well as guys like Travis Hunter and Will Johnson, nor does he have the length that those guys do. However, he’s got an unreal football I.Q., has elite instincts, and does everything very technically sound. I think that aside from Will Johnson, he is the most pro-ready CB in this class.
18) Tyler Booker, IOL, Alabama
Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks offensive line was abysmal last season, especially on the interior, so here they select the best IOL prospect in this draft class.
Booker doesn’t do anything extremely well, but he’s solid in every aspect of play at guard. He’s strong, anchors well, is athletic enough to play a zone scheme, and is great in a gap scheme. He would be an instant boost to Seattle’s offensive line.
19) James Pearce, EDGE, Tennessee
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are another team that must look to address their pass rush this offseason, so they select James Pearce with this pick.
Pearce is an unreal prospect. He is a freak athlete, was consistently productive in college, he’s got an entire bag of pass rush moves, and has a very good situational pass rush plan. However, he’s undersized and struggles against the run. But the Bucs are in need of a guy that they know can be a pass-rush specialist, so they take Pearce here.
20) TreVeyon Henderson, RB, Ohio State
Denver Broncos
Sean Payton said that the Broncos need a “joker.” In his description of a joker, he talked about a running back like Alvin Kamara who can both run and catch the ball very well. To me, that screams TreVeyon Henderson.
Henderson isn’t the fastest back, but he is great between the tackles and in a zone scheme, which is exactly what Sean Payton likes to run. Henderson has great contact balance, can pass-protect, and is an explosive and decisive runner. Not only that, but Henderson has proven to be a weapon as a receiver.
21) Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State
Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers have a lot of offensive problems, but since they can’t get their top selection of QB, they go WR at 21.
Emeka Egbuka can play both out wide and in the slot at the next level. He was productive as heck in college, he’s a fluid route runner with great hands and good run after catch ability. He reminds me a lot of a former OSU receiver in Chris Olave, and I think he’d be a good fit alongside Pickens in Pittsburgh.
22) Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan
Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers got Ladd McConkey in last year’s draft, and this year, they take another weapon for Justin Herbert.
Colston Loveland isn’t as versatile of a player as Tyler Warren is but he’s an excellent receiver who runs routes and gets in and out of his breaks very well for a TE. Not only do the Chargers need a weapon, but Loveland played for Harbaugh at Michigan, so this pick makes a ton of sense.
23) Luther Burden, WR, Missouri
Green Bay Packers
Well, you heard Josh Jacobs, the Packers need a true WR1. Here, they take Luther Burden to become their premier wideout.
While Burden isn’t an X receiver, I do believe that he’s a guy that can easily get 10 targets a game. He’s a great route runner and projects to play in the slot. He’s got great hands and body control, but the best part of his game is his YAC ability. He is so good with the ball in his hands and gains yards after the catch anytime he has the ball.
24) Kenneth Grant, IDL, Michigan
Minnesota Vikings
The Vikings’ interior defensive line was probably the worst part of their defense last year, so they address that with this pick.
Kenneth Grant was outshined most of his career due to playing next to Mason Graham, but he’s still a high-level NFL talent. Grant can get after the passer as an interior guy, and I project him to play a 3-4 end or a 4-3 DT. Either way, I think he would fit very well in Minnesota.
25) Armand Membou, OL, Missouri
Houston Texans
The Texans need help across their offensive line, so here they take Armand Membou, who has played almost every position.
Membou is the most versatile lineman in this draft class. In his time at Missouri, he played both guard spots and both tackle spots. With the Texans having so many holes, they take him and plug him into wherever they need.
26) Josh Connerly, OL, Oregon
Los Angeles Rams
The Rams need help on their offensive line, especially with Matthew Stafford’s mobility deteriorating. They take their left tackle of the future with this pick.
I don’t think Connerly is the greatest pass blocker, but what he does in the run game is special. He physically dominates in the running game and consistently creates holes for Oregon’s running backs. He would be a great fit in McVay’s system, so they take him here.
27) Shemar Stewart, EDGE, Texas A&M
Baltimore Ravens
The Ravens haven’t had a true dominant edge rusher since Terrell Suggs, so they take a swing on Shemar Stewart.
Shemar Stewart was very unproductive in college and never really filled up the box score, but he created a lot of pressure for A&M’s defense last year. He’s got great speed-to-power combination and has a pretty solid bag of pass rush moves. With his dominant performance at the Senior Bowl, I think he solidified himself as a first-round pick, and the Ravens take him here.
28) Jalon Walker, LB, Georgia
Detroit Lions
The Lions need help at both off-ball linebacker and pass rusher, so here they take a guy that did both in college.
Jalon Walker spent the majority of his college career as an off-ball LB, but in his final year at Georgia, he moved to the EDGE. While his floor as a pass-rusher is very low right now, I think his length and athleticism give him a high ceiling. I think the Lions could put him at either spot and see production.
29) Shavon Revel, CB, East Carolina
Washington Commanders
The Commander’s secondary is the weakest part of their team, so they address it in the first round.
Shavon Revel probably would’ve been a top-15 pick if he didn’t get injured last season. While injuries are a concern, his length and athleticism are not, and if he falls to 29, I don’t see the Commanders passing up the opportunity to get him.
Full Shavon Revel scouting report including strengths, areas to improve, floor, and ceiling
30) Nick Emmanwori, SAF, South Carolina
Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills desperately need a safety, and they address that need at 30.
Nick Emmanwori is a name that I would expect to keep moving up draft boards as teams continue to watch tape. Emmanwori is a beast with great size for a safety. He stands at 6’3 227 and hits hard in the run game. He also is great against the pass and has shown the ability to play and run well in deep coverage.
31) Donovan Jackson, OL, Ohio State
Kansas City Chiefs
The Chief’s biggest weakness is their offensive line. That was obvious in Super Bowl LIX, and they help give a boost at the end of Round 1.
Donovan Jackson played his entire career at guard for Ohio State until Josh Simmons went down with an injury last season, and he had to slide out to left tackle. Jackson can play in the NFL at both positions, and due to that versatility, the Chiefs take him here.
32) Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
Philadelphia Eagles
There are some question marks surrounding the Eagles LB room, even if there were no issues in the Super Bowl, so they address it in the first round.
While Zach Baun just had a great season, he is an unrestricted free agent. I think Jihaad Campbell is the best off-ball LB prospect in this draft class. He’s a leader, plays great downhill, and is athletic enough to be good in coverage.
