2025 NFL Mock Draft: Shedeur Sanders isn't the first QB off the board
The 2024 college football season is drawing to a close. That only completes half the puzzle when it comes to the 2025 NFL Draft.
Performances on the field mean plenty, but they’ll soon butt up against Scouting Combine performances and pro day workouts as all 32 teams plot out their road map to the Super Bowl. For some players, a slow 40-yard dash could dim the bright lights of a brilliant season. Others will have the chance to redeem their value after sloppy play or an injury-affected campaign.
That makes this five-months-early mock draft a tricky proposition. We know which players have improved their draft stock. We have a vague idea of who’ll pick where. But marrying the two is immensely difficult this far out.
Instead, we can provide a blurry estimate of how the 2025 NFL Draft will unfold. Here’s how it looks as December football looms — and who your favorite team could wind up targeting next spring.
