The 2025 NFL Combine is upon us, but there are still endless possibilities in this 2025 NFL Mock Draft. That is because this class is deemed more unpredictable than ever.
In this 3-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft, we explore some different fits and take a look at where some of the stars of the NFL Combine could land.
2025 NFL Mock Draft | Round 1
1) Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State
Tennessee Titans
Abdul Carter is the top overall prospect on many analysts’ big boards, and his dominant athleticism is worthy of the No. 1 selection. The Penn State edge rusher registered 12 sacks and an FBS-leading 24 tackles for a loss in 2024 and hasn’t scratched the surface of his potential at the next level.
2) Cameron Ward, QB, Miami (FL)
Cleveland Browns
With DeShaun Watson on a huge contract and sidelined with another severe injury, the Browns need a fresh – and cheap – quarterback.
Cam Ward is a creative playmaker who has excellent arm strength and instincts. He will need to stop putting the ball in harm’s way so often at the NFL level. That said, the Miami Hurricanes quarterback possesses the attributes of a modern NFL passer, which should secure him a high selection in the 2025 NFL Draft.
3) Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
New York Giants
Shedeur Sanders is an impressive, game-manager-like quarterback with an NFL-ready skill set. While his arm strength is average at best, the Colorado passer has the accuracy, vision, and athleticism to be a starter as a rookie.
4) Will Campbell, OT, LSU
New England Patriots
Is he a tackle, or is he a guard? The NFL scouting community seems split on Will Campbell’s evaluation. With an arm length that is expected to measure sub-33 inches, the LSU left tackle’s projection is murky.
However, what isn’t questionable is Campbell’s talent. With technical hand placement, strong anchor, and physicality, the Tiger’s offensive lineman can be a Day 1 starter in New England as they look to bolster the trenches with Mike Vrabel as their new head coach.
5) Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado
Jacksonville Jaguars
A two-way player at Colorado, Travis Hunter projects as a cornerback at the next level who can contribute on sub-packages as a receiver. As a corner, the Buffaloes playmaker can use his elite instincts and anticipation to take the ball away.

Meanwhile, the Heisman Trophy winner’s magnificent athletic profile means he will continue to dominate against NFL competition.
6) Mason Graham, DT, Michigan
Las Vegas Raiders
One of the top overall players in the 2025 NFL Draft, Mason Graham is a physical, violent, and intelligent defensive tackle who can dominate every down.
A strong pass rusher who has refined hand usage, the Michigan defensive lineman also has the strength profile and explosiveness to stop the run.
7) Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
New York Jets
A dynamic playmaker, Tyler Warren has the refined route running, natural athleticism, and strong hands to be a top-ten pick.
With elusive YAC ability, the Penn State tight end is nuanced in his routes to create space while having the expansive catch radius to haul in passes.
8) Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona
Carolina Panthers
At 6’5” and 212 pounds, Tetairoa McMillan has the frame to be a quarterback’s best friend in the NFL. His large catch radius and fluid movement allow the Arizona receiver to catch everything, and he is precisely the type of receiver the Panthers need to add if they are to get more out of Bryce Young.
9) Jalon Walker, EDGE, Georgia
New Orleans Saints
Jalon Walker is an elite athlete who has the skill set to be a Swiss army knife at the next level.
Labeled as a tweener, the hybrid EDGE/LB can be a moveable chess piece in the NFL, where his movement skills, agility, and bend will allow him to get after the passer from multiple alignments.
10) Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State
Chicago Bears
It is rare to see a running back mocked to the Bears. However, having been a part of the Detroit Lions, Ben Johnson has seen how drafting for value can take an NFL roster to the next level. The Lions took Jahmyr Gibbs at No. 12 overall, which shocked the football world. Could we see a repeat?
With 2,497 rushing yards and 29 touchdowns, Ashton Jeanty is a dynamic rushing threat who collects yards after contact for fun.
His 157 forced missed tackles led college football in 2024, and the elite rusher has the strength profile, vision, and elusive movement to be a game-changing weapon in the NFL.
11) Armand Membou, OT, Missouri
San Francisco 49ers
Right tackle Colton McKivitz has just one year left on his deal in San Francisco, while left tackle Trent Williams turns 37. The 49ers need to get ahead and find their future starting tackles.
Armand Membou is a true right tackle with effortless athleticism, consistent strength, and violent hands. The Missouri offensive tackle is the top tackle prospect for many analysts heading into the 2025 NFL Combine, and his refined but energetic playstyle will entice NFL teams.
12) Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina
Dallas Cowboys
This may feel early for Omarion Hampton, but it isn’t. The North Carolina rusher is a top prospect in his own right, and his powerful playstyle, violent leg drive, and explosive burst could be drafted earlier than many imagine in April’s draft.
Able to compete on all three downs as a strong pass protector and natural receiving option, the all-around skill set of the Tar Heels’ lead rusher will continue to generate a lot of buzz.
13) Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas
Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins are reportedly moving on from Terron Armstead, which means they must continue to secure the offensive line in the 2025 NFL Draft.
MORE: Scouting Reports on the Top 100 Prospects
Kelvin Banks Jr. has the skill set to play either tackle or guard in the NFL, where his punch hand placement, grip strength, and anchor make him a secure pass protector. However, with some clunky footwork and lack of leverage creation in the running game, he could slot in as a guard as a rookie.
14) Will Johnson, CB, Michigan
Indianapolis Colts
Will Johnson is now going under the radar. However, the Michigan cornerback is still among the top prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft and will be a steal outside the top 10.
With nine interceptions in his three-year career, the Wolverines’ defensive back showcases intelligence, awareness, and anticipation, alongside his athleticism to be scheme versatile in the NFL.
15) Shemar Stewart, EDGE, Texas A&M
Atlanta Falcons
The Falcons have the NFL’s worst pass-rushing unit in the NFL, and Shemar Stewart has the prototypical size (at 6’6” and 281 pounds) and ceiling to become Atlanta’s key pass rusher.
With elite athleticism, players this size shouldn’t move like Stewart does. His aggressive demeanor and physical traits demand attention at every snap, and he has the unteachable strength and size to be a top-15 selection.
16) James Pearce Jr., EDGE, Tennessee
Arizona Cardinals
With 17.5 sacks in the last two seasons, James Pearce Jr. has proven his production in the SEC. His elite twitch and explosive burst have double-digit sack upside at the next level.
The Volunteers’ pass rusher is tactical in his pass-rush plan, and while he will need to bulk up to see every down at the NFL level, his technique, instant change of direction, and athleticism will see him pressure quarterbacks from Day 1.
17) Walter Nolen, DT, Ole Miss
Cincinnati Bengals
At 6’3” and 293 pounds, Walter Nolen flashes the lateral mobility, instant acceleration, and twitchy agility to be a dominant force on the interior defensive line.
The Ole Miss defensive tackle needs to become more consistent. However, if he can turn his flashes into constant pressure, he has the intangibles to be a game-wrecker.
18) Tyler Booker, OG, Alabama
Seattle Seahawks
A solid all-around prospect who rarely puts a foot wrong, Tyler Booker would be a plug-and-play starter in Seattle who has one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL.
At 6’5” and 352 pounds, the Alabama guard is a natural leader who has the power to maintain leverage and the athleticism and active footwork to correct stunts and take on combo blocks.
19) Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
A versatile linebacker who can split time between coverage and pass rushing, Jihaad Campbell can operate as a movable option for a defensive coordinator.

At 6’3” and 244 pounds, Campbell registered five sacks in 2024, and his physicality, sideline-to-sideline range, and explosive athleticism will be a talking point of the 2025 NFL Combine and have NFL scouts swooning over his potential.
20) Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan
Denver Broncos
The Broncos need to further surround Bo Nix with offensive options. At 6’5” and 245 pounds, Colston Loveland will be a mismatch at the next level, where his athleticism, natural route running, and grippy hands could make him a quarterback’s go-to option.
21) Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan
Pittsburgh Steelers
Kenneth Grant is another potential 2025 NFL COmbine star. The hulking Michigan defensive tackle has unnaturally freakish movement ability for his size and comes alive in critical moments. The 6’3”, 339-pound nose tackle can generate leverage with his strength and speed and dominates the A-gap.
22) Azareye’h Thomas, CB, Florida State
Los Angeles Chargers
Per PFF, Azareye’h Thomas allowed only 141 yards in coverage all season and was the bright spot of an overwhelmingly disappointing season for the Florida State Seminoles.
The 6’2”, 198-pound corner possesses the body control, instincts, and ball skills to make plays at the catch point. Meanwhile, he also has the athleticism and fluid footwork to mirror routes and breaks.
23) Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia
Green Bay Packers
Mykel Williams is physically gifted at 6’5” and 265 pounds. The Georgia defensive end has great size, athleticism, and strength but has yet to put together a complete season.
However, Williams’ run blocking is among the best in the 2025 edge rusher class. He would be a steal drafted in this spot if he can turn his agility, bend, and burst into consistent pressure.
24) Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina
Minnesota Vikings
Nick Emmanwori is expected to put on a show at the 2025 NFL Combine, so don’t be surprised if he is a staple of first-round mock drafts when the dust has settled in Indianapolis.
An elite athlete, Emmanwori is physically gifted at 6’3” and 227 pounds and possesses violent quickness to be physical in run support. His size negates conceivable mismatches against tight ends in coverage, while the South Carolina defensive back’s movement and tracking skills allow him to narrow in on potential playmakers.
25) Grey Zabel, OT, North Dakota State
Houston Texans
Grey Zabel can genuinely play all five spots on the offensive line but projects best as an interior player due to his 32 1/4-inch arm length. A Day 1 start, the NDSU offensive lineman has a low pad level, punchy hand usage, and a secure anchor to create leverage and counter.
26) Luther Burden III, WR, Missouri
Los Angeles Rams
A twitched-up, explosive route runner, Luther Burden has the elusive movement and natural feel for space to continue creating highlight reel plays.

The Missouri wide receiver’s ability to create separation is unique and will prove a mismatch in the NFL, where he can use his exceptional RAC ability and impressive turn of speed to turn defenders inside out.
27) Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State
Baltimore Ravens
If it weren’t for his season-ending ACL tear in October, Josh Simmons would be a contender for OT1 and would be challenging higher up in this draft.
The Ohio State left tackle is an experienced starter, having started 31 career games. He uses his intelligence and awareness to anticipate blocks and pass-rush moves. The 6’5”, 310-pound offensive lineman displays excellent burst, urgent movement, and overwhelming strength to dominate his opponent.
28) Mike Green, EDGE, Marshall
Detroit Lions
With rumors swirling regarding some off-field issues, there is a world where Mike Green doesn’t go as highly as his skillset should project in the NFL Draft.
The Marshall Edge rusher had an FBS-leading 17 sacks in 2024 and displayed incredible bend, explosive first step, and a variety of pass rush moves to turn over 25% of his pressures into sacks.
29) Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State
Washington Commanders
A polished, refined wide receiver technician, Emeka Egbuka has the potential to be the most productive pass catcher out of this draft.
An advanced route runner who manipulates defenders and maximizes separation and space, the Ohio State wide receiver has fluid speed through all phases of the game and enters the NFL with a high floor after an incredibly productive college career.
30) Malaki Starks, S, Georgia
Buffalo Bills
Despite his fall in recent mock drafts, Malaki Starks still has one of the best overall profiles in the 2025 NFL Draft. The Georgia defensive back is a true difference-maker in the secondary and has showcased elite anticipation, innate intelligence, and refined athleticism.
Starks may not have had the interception production that many expected him to generate in 2024, but he still possesses an NFL-ready skill set that should be a first-round selection.
31) Josh Conerly Jr., OT, Oregon
Kansas City Chiefs
Josh Conerly is an experienced left tackle who has started 28 games. The 6’4”, 313-pound Oregon offensive tackle is an excellent athlete with fluid kick slides and initial quickness.
His agility allows him to recover, while his mobility will enable him to mirror twitchy pass rushers. However, Conerly’s issues stem from a lack of lower half mass, which impacts his play strength.
32) Nic Scourton, EDGE, Texas A&M
Philadelphia Eagles
After an impressive 2023 campaign with the Purdue Boilermakers, which saw him register 10 sacks in the Big Ten, Nick Scourton didn’t hit the heights he expected at Texas A&M in 2024. It appeared he was carrying too much bad weight, meaning he didn’t look the same player.
Nevertheless, Scourton is a natural pass rusher who has shown complete, developed tape. The Philadelphia Eagles are the best team to get the Aggies’ pass rusher back to his best.
