The 2025 NFL Draft is upon us, and so is your need to be prepared for all of tomorrow’s stars. Dive into our spotlight on Mike Green, featuring his scouting report, strengths and weaknesses, his recent draft projection, and where all the experts predict he could land.
Mike Green’s NFL Draft Scouting Report
Mike Green’s dismissal from Virginia must be properly vetted, but if he passes the character check for NFL teams, he has the talent to be a top-15 player in the 2025 NFL Draft. Green is the most prolific pass-rush producer in the class, coming off a 2024 campaign that featured 17 sacks and 23 TFLs.
At 6’3″, 251 pounds, with 32″ arms, Green’s length and mass are visibly non-elite, but Green nonetheless terrorizes tackles with his explosiveness, bend, agility, and thorough execution.
His three-cone time near the 99th percentile is evidence of his athleticism and fluidity, and he also has surprising play strength as an edge-setter in run support. Best utilized as a wide-alignment rusher in odd and hybrid-front schemes, Green has impact starter potential.
Mike Green’s NFL Draft Projection
In CSN’s 7-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft from April 12, Green landed in Round 1 with the 17th pick to the Cincinnati Bengals. James Fragoza has this to say:
Trey Hendrickson remains a Bengal on paper, but after the mishandling of his contract, he seems mentally checked out. Even if he returns, the franchise is desperate for pass-rush reinforcement following Sam Hubbard’s unexpected retirement.
Enter Mike Green—the top true pass rusher in the class who knows exactly how to get home in a hurry.
Green has seen his stock rise following a dominant showing at the 2025 Reese’s Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama.
