2025 NFL Mock Draft (Final Mock)

The 2025 NFL Draft is finally here, and all signs point to the Tennessee Titans locking in Cam Ward as their quarterback of the future with the No. 1 overall pick. The top of the board feels mostly set, with picks 1 through 4 shaping up as expected—but that fifth pick? That’s where things get interesting. Will it be Michigan’s Mason Graham or Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty? Or could a team make a bold move and trade up into the top 5? Will Shedeur Sanders slide down in the Draft? We’ve got a lot to unpack before the clock starts ticking tomorrow night.

2025 NFL Mock Draft: Full First-Round Breakdown

Note: This mock draft does not predict trades.

1. Tennessee Titans — Cam Ward, QB, Miami.

The Titans are pressing reset at quarterback, and Cam Ward gives them the dual-threat playmaker they’ve lacked. With a strong arm, elite mobility, and impressive poise under pressure, Ward has all the tools to build around. It’s a bold new era for Tennessee.

2. Cleveland Browns — Travis Hunter, WR/CB, Colorado.

Travis Hunter is the most dynamic athlete in this class. The Browns can use him on either side of the ball, but his electric playmaking skills will shine in their receiving corps. Cleveland grabs a unicorn at No. 2.

3. New York Giants — Abdul Carter, Edge, Penn State.

The Giants need a defensive tone-setter, and Carter is exactly that. A relentless pass rusher with sideline-to-sideline speed, Carter gives New York a franchise cornerstone on defense.

4. New England Patriots — Will Campbell, OT, LSU.

The Patriots continue rebuilding their offensive line with a mauler in Campbell. He’s plug-and-play at left tackle and will give their young quarterback the protection he desperately needs.

5. Jacksonville Jaguars — Mason Graham, DT, Michigan.

Graham is a game-wrecker in the middle and fits perfectly with Jacksonville’s evolving defense. This pick gives the Jags a consistent disruptor in the trenches.

6. Las Vegas Raiders — Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State.

With Josh Jacobs out of the picture, Jeanty steps in as the new face of the Raiders’ backfield. A shifty, versatile runner with great hands, he fits today’s NFL mold of a true three-down back.

7. New York Jets — Armand Membou, OT, Missouri.

Protecting Justin Fields (or the next man up) is priority number one. Membou brings athleticism and tenacity to an offensive line that needs stability.

8. Carolina Panthers — Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona.

McMillan gives Carolina a big-bodied target who can win downfield and in contested catches. He’s exactly what their young QB needs to take the next step.

9. New Orleans Saints — Jalon Walker, LB, Georgia.

Walker is a sideline-to-sideline thumper who can blitz, cover, and lead. He’s a Saints-type linebacker through and through and adds youth to their aging core.

10. Chicago Bears — Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas.

Caleb Williams will appreciate this pick. Banks is athletic, strong, and technically sound — a blindside protector for the next decade.

11. San Francisco 49ers — Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State.

Kyle Shanahan gets his next chess piece. Warren can line up all over the field and form a dangerous duo with George Kittle while eventually taking over as TE1. Worth noting, Kittle and the Niners have made no progress on a new contract.

12. Dallas Cowboys — Matthew Golden, WR, Texas.

CeeDee Lamb needs help, and Golden brings crisp route-running and reliable hands to a Dallas offense that needs more consistency in the passing game.

13. Miami Dolphins — Will Johnson, CB, Michigan.

With some aging talent in the secondary, Johnson helps retool Miami’s pass defense. A fluid, intelligent cover man who can shadow top receivers.

14. Indianapolis Colts — Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan.

Loveland gives Anthony Richardson a big, athletic target over the middle. He stretches the seam and will be a favorite red-zone option.

15. Atlanta Falcons — Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas.

Barron brings physicality and ball skills to a Falcons secondary in need of depth and versatility. He can play inside or outside.

16. Arizona Cardinals — Mike Green, Edge, Marshall.

Green is a freaky athlete who brings juice to the Cardinals’ pass rush. He’s still raw, but his upside is massive.

17. Cincinnati Bengals — Shemar Stewart, Edge, Texas A&M.

Stewart gives the Bengals a high-ceiling edge rusher with great size and bend. A needed complement to Trey Hendrickson (if they re-sign him).

18. Seattle Seahawks — Grey Zabel, OG, North Dakota State.

Zabel is an under-the-radar mauler who dominates in the run game. He fits the physical brand of football Seattle wants to reestablish.

19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers — Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State.

Egbuka is a polished, savvy route-runner who can step in right away as a WR2 or WR3. He adds depth and insurance behind Mike Evans.

20. Denver Broncos — Walter Nolan, DT, Ole Miss.

Nolan brings needed beef and explosiveness to the Broncos’ interior. A game-changer up front if he continues to develop.

21. Pittsburgh Steelers — Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado.

The Steelers land their next franchise QB. Sanders is poised, smart, and accurate, with the leadership to handle the pressure in Pittsburgh.

22. Los Angeles Chargers — Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina.

With Austin Ekeler gone, Hampton gives the Chargers a new workhorse. A physical back with good burst and contact balance.

23. Green Bay Packers — Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon.

Harmon is a disruptive force up the middle who can anchor against the run and collapse pockets. He fits Green Bay’s defensive front well.

24. Minnesota Vikings — Donovan Ezeiruaku, Edge, Boston College.

Minnesota continues building out its pass rush with Ezeiruaku, a high-motor edge who consistently produces pressure.

25. Houston Texans — Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State.

C.J. Stroud gets more help up front. Simmons is athletic and technically sound, a good fit for Houston’s fast-paced offense.

26. Los Angeles Rams — Kenneth Grant, DL, Michigan.

The Rams add size and power in the trenches with Grant, a space-eater who can collapse the pocket and plug run lanes.

27. Baltimore Ravens — Malaki Starks, S, Georgia.

Starks gives the Ravens another rangy safety who can roam the back end and fly downhill. A perfect fit for their aggressive defense.

28. Detroit Lions — Tyleik Williams, DT, Ohio State.

Williams gives Detroit another monster up front to pair with Aidan Hutchinson. A smart, physical interior defender.

29. Washington Commanders — James Pearce Jr., DE, Tennessee.

Pearce brings speed and explosiveness off the edge. He’ll help restore the Commanders’ once-feared pass rush.

30. Buffalo Bills — Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky.

Hairston has the size, speed, and instincts to help Buffalo’s secondary get back on track. A much-needed addition in coverage.

31. Kansas City Chiefs — Donovan Jackson, OG, Ohio State.

Jackson adds power and versatility to a Chiefs O-line that needs to stay elite as Mahomes enters his prime years.

32. Philadelphia Eagles — Tyler Booker, OG, Alabama.

Booker is a bruiser who fits Philly’s physical style. He’ll be an anchor inside for years as the Eagles retool their dominant line.
