    NFL Mock Draft 7.0: What Changed from the Last Projection?

    In Yahoo Sports’ NFL Mock Draft 6.0, Hunter was projected to the Giants at No. 3 as a top CB/WR, while Sanders landed with the Raiders at No. 4 (via trade), seen as a potential franchise QB.

    In Mock Draft 7.0, Hunter moved up to No. 2 with the Browns, while Sanders slid to No. 3 with the Giants. These changes highlight Hunter’s rise and Sanders’ slight drop in the QB debate.

    Sanders is a great fit for the Giants’ rebuild in Yahoo’s Mock Draft 7.0, landing at No. 3 due to his polished skills and long-term upside. He has the arm strength, accuracy, and pocket toughness to stabilize a struggling offense with a 74% completion rate, 4,134 passing yards, and 37 touchdowns in 2024-25.

    Pairing him with young wide receiver Malik Nabers could jumpstart the Giants’ passing attack. Nabers’ explosiveness and ability to create separation give Sanders a dynamic weapon with which to build chemistry, helping transform New York’s offense and providing a foundation for long-term success.

    Another big change between Yahoo’s Mock Draft 6.0 and 7.0 is Abdul Carter dropping from No. 2 to No. 7. In 6.0, the Browns saw him as a top pass rusher to pair with Garrett, but in 7.0, they picked Hunter instead for his versatility. Carter’s slide may be due to strong edge depth in the draft and the Browns prioritizing a player who can contribute right away.
    However, landing Carter at No. 7 could be a steal for the Jets. He’s ranked as the No. 2 overall player on some boards and brings explosive athleticism to a defensive front that struggled in 2024. Under new coaching leadership, Carter could provide an immediate boost and become a key piece in their defensive rebuild.

    With these shifts in Yahoo’s latest mock draft, it’s clear that teams are refining their priorities as the 2025 NFL Draft approaches. Hunter’s rise, Sanders’ fit with the Giants, and Carter’s unexpected slide highlight how fluid the draft process can be.
