We know that Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders are going to be all over NFL mock drafts ahead of 2025, but will there be other first-round QBs projected?
Our latest NFL mock draft from Christian D’Andrea had three taken — Ward, Sanders and Alabama’s Jalen Milroe. That’s it, and I’ve seen mocks that don’t have Milroe in them.
And in a mock from The Sporting News, Vinnie Iyer projected four of them to go — Ward, Sanders, Milroe and Texas QB Quinn Ewers, who went to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Why is Ewers in the mix given the year he’s had? Here’s Iyer’s take on the selection:
This might seem like too soon after the Kenny Pickett flameout, but Russell Wilson still feels like a bridge and Justin Fields can’t be more than a run-oriented fill-in. Ewers’ blend of accurate downfield passing from the pocket and athleticism would mesh well with Arthur Smith’s offense, even if the Steelers would need Wilson to start another year.
There you have it. Make sure to check out the latest NFL mock draft from D’Andrea!
