The 2025 NFL Draft is approaching just one month away. Let's get into our latest three-round mock draft where a shocking team trades into the top 10. No on truly knows what's going to happen when the NFL Draft rolls around. This is mainly due to the QB class not being nearly as deep this year as it was last year or in previous drafts.
This could create a bit of chaos at the very top, but with the lack of QB talent, the best QB prospects could also be highly sought after at the same given. Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders figure to be the first two QBs taken, and both could actually go in the top three picks.
However, there could be some other quarterbacks who hear their names called earlier than expected, and we could also see prospects going much higher or much lower than usual. Let's get into our latest-three round mock draft where a shocking team trades into the top 10.
2025 NFL Mock Draft: Shocking team trades into top 10 in three-round mock
1. Tennessee Titans - Cam Ward, QB, Miami (FL)
The Tennessee Titans don’t do anything special here at the top and take Cam Ward from Miami (FL). Ward is not the most accurate or polished passer, but he’s got the highest ceiling of any college QB this cycle. Being that the Titans also invested a ton of money into their offensive line this offseason, and have overall made a bigger investment into the unit recently, it could make a ton of sense that they bring in a rookie QB.
Cam Ward is the first choice in our latest NFL Mock Draft.
2. Cleveland Browns - Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State
The Cleveland Browns take Abdul Carter from Penn State. In my opinion, they would take Cam Ward here if he were to fall from pick no. 1, but they instead stick with the best player in the NFL Draft class and grab Carter, who could form the best pass rush duo in the entire NFL alongside Myles Garrett, who just signed a massive contract extension.
The Browns get elite in the trenches with selecting Abdul Carter in this mock draft.
3. New York Giants - Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
The New York Giants signed Jameis Winston to a two-year deal, but this could merely be them wanting to raise the floor of their QB room. Winston is notorious for being a beloved teammate, and it seems like he firmly understands what his role is as a QB in the NFL at this point. He can come in and, with solid coaching, hold the fort down for a little while.
The Giants signing Winston absolutely keeps them in play to not only sign Aaron Rodgers, but if that doesn’t happen, still take to the 2025 NFL Draft to grab Shedeur Sanders from Colorado. Sanders is a relatively polished prospect who is above average from the pocket and who has a very accurate arm.
Sanders does hold onto the ball for too long at times, but head coach Brian Daboll is a solid offensive mind and should be able to get the most out of the QB - whatever that looks like at the NFL level. A QB room of Sanders and Winston is actually substantive.
4. Cincinnati Bengals (via NE) - Mason Graham, DT, Michigan
Trade! After extending both Tee Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase, the Cincinnati Bengals trade into the top 10 and take Mason Graham from Michigan. This is a massive, uncharacteristic move from the Bengals front office - this team is clearly wanting to fix their defense.
And I could absolutely see them doing this even if they were able to also retain Trey Hendrickson on a long-term deal as well. Their defense was their undoing in 2024, so even if this unit is average in 2025, Cincy will be a top team in the entire NFL. Mason Graham heads to a defense where he could be the focal point for years to come. This is an aggressive move by the Bengals.
5. Jacksonville Jaguars - Travis Hunter, CB, Colorado
Travis Hunter has to be one of the most interesting NFL Draft prospects this century. He won the Heisman Trophy in the 2024 college football season and is a first-round caliber prospect at both wide receiver and cornerback. This is extremely conveionent for the Jacksonbille Jaguars, as the Jags need both of those positions filled.
At the NFL level, and to preserve his career, Hunter should and will settle into one position, probably cornerback, and be sprinkled in on the offensive side of the ball here and there. With the Jags having a new, offensive-minded head coach and a young QB who has not hit his ceiling yet, it actually might make more sense for Hunter to primarily play WR with the Jags.
Either way, Jacksonville is getting one of the best prospects in the entire 2025 NFL Draft class at pick five.
6. Las Vegas Raiders - Will Johnson, CB, Michigan
I understand why many mock drafts would have the Las Vegas Raiders taking RB Ashton Jeanty from Boise State, but upon further look, the Raiders defense is horrid on paper, and this is simply more of an urgent need than running back.
The Raiders notably traded for Geno Smith a few weeks ago and will probably have a contract extension for him soon, but they did have the worst RB room in the NFL in the 2024 season. Vegas surely is going to entertain taking Jeanty, but the best course of action, in my opinion, would be to take a CB like Will Johnson to fix the defensive side of the ball.
With how deep the RB class is here in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Raiders can find a RB1 later on. The defense is in more of a need to be fixed. Pete Caroll is an old-school head coach who loves to run the ball and play defense, so you best bet that both units will be efficient for the Raiders in 2025.
7. New York Jets - Will Campbell, OT, LSU
I am not sure what the New York Jets are attempting to do with Justin Fields as their starting QB, but he’ll likely be their starter for the 2025 NFL Season. The 2026 NFL Draft is expected to be a lot deeper at the QB position, so new Jets GM Darren Mougey could be looking ahead a bit.
A great pick for the present and future for this team could be the stud left tackle from LSU, Will Campbell. Campbell could be a Day 1 starter at the position and would help out a huge unit of need along the offensive line. The Jets OL was abysmal in 2024, and it’s simply an area where a brand-new GM should be investing into.
With Campbell now inserted into the equation, the Jets could feature a solid OL and could allow them to easily insert a rookie QB into the mix next year. I would not rule out the team trying to trade up in the first round for one of the top two QBs, but in this mock draft, they stay at pick seven.
8. Dallas Cowboys (via CAR) - Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State
The Dallas Cowboys trade up into the top 10, which gives us two teams doing so in this 2025 NFL Mock Draft. They unsurprisingly take Ashton Jeanty from Boise State, and Jerry Jones simply can’t help himself here. The Cowboys have had another awful offseason if you ask me - they seemed to almost push Mike McCarthy out of the door and now have Brian Schottenheimer as their head coach.
A contract extension for Micah Parsons isn’t there yet, and they did seem to overpay for both CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott. With a top-heavy roster, the Cowboys really should go in a different direction here, but Jones wants Ashton Jeanty in an unsurprising move.
9. New Orleans Saints - Armand Membou, OT, Missouri
The New Orleans Saints need some young, cheap talent on the roster. They take Armand Membou from Missouri at pick nine in this mock draft. The Saints have not embraced any sort of rebuild this offseason. In fact, they have actually been, yet again, adding to their roster with free agency signings.
It’s a seriously odd situation for the Saints. GM Mickey Loomis seems to not have a single clue what he’s doing if you ask me, but his job is safe, and the Saints just hired Kellen Moore to be their new head coach.
At pick nine, the Saints take Armand Membou, who could be both a guard and a tackle at the NFL level. This is a sound selection for the Saints, and Membou could be an instant hit at the NFL. With how weak the NFC South is, I guess New Orleans could realistically compete for the division crown in the 2025 NFL Season.
10. Chicago Bears - Shemar Stewart, EDGE, Texas A&M
The Chicago Bears have added a trio of starting offensive linemen this offseason, trading for Jonah Jackson, Joe Thuney, and signing Drew Dalman in free agency. This gives the Bears a ton of flexibility in the 2025 NFL Draft to perhaps take a top-tier offensive prospect. However, they keep investing into the trenches and grab the toolsy Shemar Stewart from Texas A&M.
If the Bears’ trench play does improve like he think it should in 2025, this team could at least compete for a Wild Card spot in the NFC. I would not be shocked if they even hung around in the NFC North race for a while - with the Detroit Lions losing their coordinators and the Minnesota Vikings turning to JJ McCarthy, the Bears could close the gap a bit.
They grab another player at a huge position of need in the first round of this mock draft.
11. San Francisco 49ers - Tyler Booker, OG, Alabama
The San Francisco 49ers have said goodbye to a ton of foundational players this offseason including Deebo Samuel Dre Greenlaw, and Talanoa Hufanga in what could be a re-tooling offseason. This is the smart, right move by the 49ers front office. They could not keep this up with the same players. Many of them were getting old and failing to consistently stay on the field.
The Niners shift their roster-building focus a bit and actually grab a top OL prospect in Tyler Booker from Alabama. Booker is a sure-fire Day 1 starter at guard, and the 49ers did lose Aaron Banks in free agency.
I would also expect this team to extend Brock Purdy this offseason. Purdy is a good QB, but he might not be the truly elite QB that can lead this team to a Super Bowl. After two Super Bowl appearances in 2019 and 2023, the 49ers turn the page a bit this offseason and reset at positions of need.
12. Carolina Panthers (via DAL) - Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona
With the Dallas Cowboys trading up to pick eight, the Carolina Panthers settle in with the 12th pick, and they are still able to land who many think is the top WR prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft in Tetairoa McMillan from Arizona.
I have seen some people say that McMillan is reliant too much on his physical profile to win on routes and that is route-runner simply isn’t all that good, but I have also seen other people say that this is a top-notch wide receiver prospect. The Panthers take a chance on McMillan, potentially giving Bryce Young an alpha WR1 for the long-term.
If Young can’t hit his stride in 2025, it would not shock me to see the Panthers going in a different direction at the quarterback position.
13. Miami Dolphins - Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
Getting a legitimate tight end who can block and catch passes is going to be huge for the Miami Dolphins. The Shanahan-style offense that Mike McDaniel likes to run does need a legitimate, well-rounded tight end. Tyler Warren is absolutely that kind of player and someone who could seriously go inside the top 10 of the 2025 NFL Draft.
He is the best tight end prospect in this year’s draft and is going to have an instant impact as a rookie. The Dolphins do need to acquire more players who can play with a nastier edge and overall make them more competitive when the weather gets cold. It sounds silly, but this team simply can’t play that well when the temperature drops.
This, coupled with Tua Tagovailoa not being able to stay on the field consistently has prevented the Dolphins from hitting their stride, and it feels like the 2025 NFL Season is the do-or-die year for this current group of Dolphins players and coaches.
14. Indianapolis Colts - Kelvin Banks Jr, OT, Texas
The Indianapolis Colts lost Will Fries and Ryan Kelly in free agency. Kelvin Banks Jr is a tackle, but he could kick inside to guard and be a Day 1 starter at an interior spot along the offensive line for Indy, who actually spent a bit of money in free agency for the first time in a while.
Their most notable signings include Daniel Jones, Chavarius Ward, and Cam Bynum. Jones is likely competing with Anthony Richardson for the starting spot in 2025, which is simply not what the Colts likely wanted.
They surely wanted Richardson to have already established himself at this point, and with how terrible he’s been in the NFL, he might still have a huge hill to climb. Adding a starting offensive lineman to the mix is going to help the offense overall. They take Kelvin Banks Jr at pick 14.
15. Atlanta Falcons - Jalon Walker, LB, Georgia
The Atlanta Falcons have to field a competent defense in the 2025 NFL Season. This isn’t just for the sake of not having a bad defense, but this will also help the development of Michael Penix Jr, their 2024 NFL Draft first-round pick.
The defense being able to push teams off the field earlier does give the offense shorter fields and will tire out opposing defenses who have to come back out earlier than expected. Penix and the Falcons offense is in a good spot with their personnel overall.
The other major thing here with this team is them still having Kirk Cousins on their roster. It seems like they are holding out hope that someone will be brave enough to trade for him, but this is firmly Penix’s team. They take LB/EDGE player Jalon Walker from Georgia at pick 15.
Walker could give them the youth and explosion they are missing along the defensive front. This has to be a do-or-die season for Falcons GM Terry Fontenot.
16. Arizona Cardinals - Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia
Signing Josh Sweat in free agency and reuniting him with Jonathan Gannon was a smart move by Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort. They also retained pass rusher Baron Browning as well. If you ask me, this team still needs another player along their defensive line, so they take Mykel Williams from Georgia and are now in a spot where the DL, a weak point in 2024, is now a unit of strength.
Being able to push opposing offensive lines around is going to raise all tides on defense. The Cardinals can now turn their attention to the offensive side of the ball to try and unlock the rest of that unit’s ceiling in 2025 and beyond. Do not be surprised if Arizona competes for the NFC West in the 2025 NFL Season.
17. New England Patriots (via CIN) - Matthew Golden, WR, Texas
The New England Patriots happily accepted a massive trade down offer from the Cincinnati Bengals. At pick 17 now, the Pats take the polished WR prospect in Matthew Golden from Texas. Golden could instantly become their top target.
Rumors swirled about the Patriots offering free agent WR Chris Godwin a ton of money before he re-signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so you have to figure that the Patriots front office is hungry to give Drake Maye more weapons.
Golden is a very sound pick at the 17th selection, and there is still a good bit of offensive tackle talent left on the board for the Patriots to dip into that pool. The Pats have improved their OL this offseason, but they do need to find a legitimate left tackle prospect after this pick.
18. Seattle Seahawks - Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State
The Seattle Seahawks take tackle Josh Simmons from Ohio State at pick 18 in this 2025 NFL Mock Draft. Seattle has had an interesting offseason - they traded Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders for a third-round pick, and traded WR DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a second-round pick.
They are clearly trying to redo this roster a bit, as they also cut Tyler Lockett and have Sam Darnold as their QB1. It’s an interesting strategy for GM John Schneider. They’ll improve a position of need at the offensive line to try and keep Darnold upright in 2025.
It is important to note that Darnold’s three-year deal with the Seahawks is effectively a one-year pact, so Seattle can move on quite easily after the 2025 NFL Season if they wanted to. Only time will tell if the Seahawks roster moves will end up being for the better.
19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State
This would be a slam-dunk selection for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Some may argue that this team should take a cornerback or a pass rusher, but I would struggle to see how they’d pass up on a prospect like Emeka Egbuka. Ask yourself what the Tampa Bay Buccaneers do the best…
It’s offense. Baker Mayfield played his tail off in the 2024 NFL Season, and with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin getting older, them doing some proactive roster-building at one of their strongest positions is smart. Egbuka is going to be an instant contributor on offense and could still manage to catch 50 passes as a rookie.
The Bucs were able to re-sign Chris Godwin, and that didn’t always seem likely. Tampa Bay lost former offensive coordinator Liam Coen to the Jacksonville Jaguars head coaching job. They will again have to reset at OC.
This team could compete for the NFC South title yet again. They have won it both years of the Baker Mayfield era, which is impressive.
20. Denver Broncos - Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon
The Denver Broncos made a trio of legitimate free agency signings in 2025, signing Evan Engram, Dre Greenlaw, and Talanoa Hufanga. The Broncos triple-down on the defensive side of the ball and take DT Derrick Harmon at pick 20.
The Broncos did also re-sign DJ Jones, their starting defensive tackle, but their DL is among the best in the NFL and should remain that way in 2025. It’s why their defense ended up being so elite in 2025. With the unit likely going through some changes in the next offseason or so, them adding a first-round DT is not out of the question, even if they need some help at running back.
This might not be the most popular pick for Broncos fans, but it’s a valuable one for sure. Denver takes Derrick Harmon from Oregon at pick 20 in our latest NFL Mock Draft.
21. Pittsburgh Steelers - Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas
The Pittsburgh Steelers might sign Aaron Rodgers to be their QB in the 2025 NFL Season. They might not sign Aaron Rodgers. No one truly knows…
The Steelers are a good team and will need to figure out a long-term QB situation at some point. They have totally mishandled the position for multiple years now, and it seemed like they thought they had something going for them with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields.
But Wilson is still a free agent, and Fields is on the New York Jets. With them not being able to trade up for a QB prospect here in the first round of this mock draft, they take DB Jahdae Barron from Texas, who can play all over the secondary.
Until Pittsburgh flips their thinking and starts to invest into the offense more, they will max-out with their nine, 10 win seasons and first-round playoff exits. It’ll be interesting to see who plays QB for them in the 2025 NFL Season.
22. Los Angeles Chargers - Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan
The LA Chargers wanted to sign free agent TE Evan Engram at one point, but he chose the Denver Broncos. The Chargers did just sign TE Tyler Conklin, who is a floor-raiser at the position. The Bolts still need to find a long-term solution at the position and to find Justin Herbert another weapon.
Well, Colston Loveland is as logical of a pick as it gets for LA. Loveland played for Jim Harbaugh when he was still at Michigan and surely understands the expectations that some with playing for Harbaugh. The Chargers were successful in 2024; they went 11-6 but did lose in the Wild Card Round of the NFL playoffs to the Houston Texans.
They haven’t had the best offseason, but having another stellar rookie class from the NFL Draft could truly help the Chargers propel into contention in the loaded AFC in 2025.
23. Green Bay Packers - Luther Burden III, WR, Missouri
The Green Bay Packers could seriously make some strides in the NFC North in the 2025 NFL Season. The Detroit Lions lost both Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn to head coaching jobs, and the Minnesota Vikings are likely handing the keys over to de-facto rookie QB, JJ McCarthy.
With both Detroit and Minnesota in a position to regress a bit, this could help the Packers improve some. Green Bay went 11-6 in the 2024 NFL Season and lost in the first round of the postseason. They are filled with a ton of good players, but will need to find some truly elite difference-makers to take their team to the next level.
Luther Burden III, the explosive WR from Missouri, could be that type of player on the offensive side of the ball. Burden is ridiculous with the ball in his hands and could instantly become a high-end mismatch player for head coach Matt LaFleur and QB Jordan Love.
Jordan Love might be someone to watch as a massive breakout candidate in 2025. The Packers take Burden at pick 23 in this 2025 NFL Mock Draft.
24. Minnesota Vikings - James Pearce Jr, EDGE, Tennessee
I applaud what the Minnesota Vikings have done this offseason. They have bolstered their offensive line with Will Fries and Ryan Kelly, and have also beefed up their defensive line with Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave. It does feel like they are wanting to load this roster up as much as possible for JJ McCarthy, who missed his entire rookie season.
The Vikes keep up with the huge trenches investment and grab James Pearce Jr from Tennessee. Pearce is a hyper-athletic player and someone who could give them a ton of production in certain pass-rush packages on long downs.
If McCarthy can find some sort of instant success in 2025, the Vikings truly might not skip a beat from the 2024 NFL Season.
25. Houston Texans - Grey Zabel, OG, North Dakota State
You really have to wonder what the Houston Texans are doing along their offensive line this offseason. They shockingly traded Laremy Tunsil to the Washington Commanders, but have since signed Cam Robinson, Trent Brown, Laken Tomlinson and traded for Ed Ingram. If nothing else, they seem to be stacking up on OL bodies to at least find some sort of ‘best five-lineman’ solution.
Taking a first-round player along the OL is an obvious choice for the team in the 2025 NFL Draft. Grey Zabel is a Day 1 starter along the interior, and this team truly has to get the offensive line right this coming season. CJ Stroud was running for his life in 2024, and it was a huge reason why the offense regressed.
Despite the obvious regression, Houston still went 10-7, won the AFC South, and won a playoff game - that right there should tell you just how good this team can be. Regressing like they did and still making a some-what deep playoff run is impressive. If GM Nick Caserio did end up making the right OL moves, Houston might ascend to elite status in 2025.
26. Los Angeles Rams - Shavon Revel, CB, East Carolina
A huge need, the Los Angeles Rams address their secondary and take cornerback Shavon Revel from East Carolina in the first round of this NFL Mock Draft. LA seemed to have a bit of a Matthew Stafford scare during the 2024 NFL Season, but the two sides are going to reunite for at least one more year in 2025.
The Rams dealt with a ton of injuries in the beginning part of 2024, which was a huge reason for their shaky 1-4 start. They finished the year with a solid 10-7 record, so if they can stay healthy for the most part, this could be a 12 or 13-win team in 2025. It’s clear that the front office believes they can compete for another Super Bowl, as bringing Matthew Stafford back is an indication of that.
Addressing a huge position of need and taking Shavon Revel is a huge get for the Rams at pick 26.
27. Baltimore Ravens - Azareye’h Thomas, CB, Florida State
It always seems like the Baltimore Ravens need some help in the secondary. I went with Azareye’h Thomas from Florida State at pick 27. We have talked about the Ravens a lot here. They again got bounced out of the playoffs after just one postseason victory in 2024. The last time this team won more than a game in the playoffs was all the way back in 2012. Furthermore, Lamar Jackson got snubbed of his third NFL MVP last season.
You simply have to wonder if certain coaches have hit their max with the Ravens and are the ones holding this team back? We’ll see how 2025 goes, but it’s been pretty tough sledding for Baltimore when the postseason rolls around.
Perhaps improving the secondary can raise all units of the defense in 2025. It’s hard to pinpoint what the Ravens would need on the offensive side of the ball, as Lamar Jackson was outstanding, and the unit overall was magical last year.
28. Detroit Lions - Nic Scourton, EDGE, Texas A&M
Brutal defensive injuries really prevented the Detroit Lions from at least making it to the Super Bowl, which is what many people thought was going to happen with this team in the 2024 NFL Season. They should return many of their injured players in 2025, which is great. They should still continue to invest into their defense, so I went with a young rusher in Nic Scourton.
Slowly but surely, the Lions have extended many of their top players, so they will need to continue hitting on some young, cheap players from the NFL Draft. Nic Scourton could enter into a stellar situation with the Lions defense, being able to play alongside Aidan Hutchinson.
Can the Lions avoid regression in 2025? They did lost both Aaron Glenn and Ben Johnson to head coaching jobs this offseason. Detroit will be a hugely interesting team to follow in 2025.
29. Washington Commanders - Malaki Starks, S, Georgia
You have to respect what the Washington Commanders have done this offseason. They swung to major trades for Deebo Samuel and Laremy Tunsil. This proves that the front office is trying to go all-in with their stud QB, Jayden Daniels.
Daniels took the league by storm during his rookie season, and he may enter year two as one of the favorites to win the NFL MVP award. I am not sure Daniels isn’t a top-10 QB at this point, and with the Commanders on the cusp of turning into a contender, you have to assume that GM Adam Peters is going to try and knock the 2025 NFL Draft out of the park.
In this NFL Mock Draft, they use their first-round pick on safety Malaki Starks from Georgia, adding another key player into the secondary. During the 2024 NFL Season, they swung a trade for CB Marshon Lattimore, so this is a unit that has gotten some attention recently.
30. Buffalo Bills - Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina
Three out of the last four picks in this mock draft have come in the secondary. The Buffalo Bills take Nick Emmanwori from South Carolina. You have to give the Bills credit - a lot of people thought they were going to regress a bit in 2024, but the total opposite happened. Josh Allen won his first MVP award, and Buffalo was able to make it to the AFC Championship Game, where they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Bills have brought in some new faces along the defensive line in free agency, which is a huge job well done by GM Brandon Beane. However, needs still remain in the secondary, so that is my reasoning for taking Emmanwori at pick 30.
I would not be shocked if Buffalo also came away with another wide receiver. Those two groups - secondary and wide receiver, seem to be their most urgent remaining needs. Would this be a solid pick for the Buffalo Bills in this 2025 NFL Mock Draft?
31. Kansas City Chiefs - Tyleik Williams, DT, Ohio State
The Kansas City Chiefs use their first-round pick on Tyleik Williams from Ohio State. The Chiefs got blown out in Super Bowl LIX against the Philadelphia Eagles in what was a total drubbing. The Chiefs have seen some transition along their offensive line this offseason - they traded Joe Thuney to the Chicago Bears and signed Jaylon Moore to be their left tackle.
Both tackle and guard are still needs, but so is their defensive line. To try and become the AFC version of the Eagles, the Chiefs grab DT Tyleik Williams.
Chris Jones is getting up there in age, and this is simply an extremely valuable position for any team to take in the first round. Beyond the DT, guard, and tackle spots, the Chiefs could also use noticeable help at running back, wide receiver, and even tight end.
Kansas City, in my opinion, does not have nearly as good of a roster as some think. They get too reliant on Patrick Mahomes at times, so GM Brett Veach really has to hit this draft class out of the park in 2025.
32. Philadelphia Eagles - Walter Nolen, DT, Ole Miss
The Philadelphia Eagles probably expected to lose Milton Williams and Josh Sweat in free agency. They also moved on from both James Bradberry and Darius Slay, and traded away CJ Gardner-Johnson. Mekhi Becton signed with the Los Angeles Chargers in free agency, so there have been a ton of notable exits for the Eagles this offseason, and that usually does happen when a team wins the Super Bowl.
Philly uses pick 32 in this NFL Mock Draft on Walter Nolen from Ole Miss. It’s a typical Howie Roseman pick, and Roseman’s roster-building is perhaps the best in the NFL. Teams should really try to copy how the Eagles go about building their teams up, as they always seem to have a top-tier roster.
In their quest to repeat as Super Bowl champions in 2025, the Eagles take a player at a huge position of need. With the first round over, let’s get into the second round.
Round 2
Here are the Round 2 picks. Let’s highlight the major ones.
33. Cleveland Browns - Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina
34. New York Giants - Donovan Jackson, OG, Ohio State
35. Tennessee Titans - Donovan Ezeiruaku, EDGE, Boston College
36. Jacksonville Jaguars - Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan
37. Las Vegas Raiders - Benjamin Morrison, CB, Notre Dame
38. New England Patriots - Aireontae Ersery, OT, Minnesota
39. Chicago Bears - Cameron Williams, OT, Texas
40. New Orleans Saints - Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
41. Chicago Bears - Xavier Watts, S, Notre Dame
42. New York Jets - Harold Fannin Jr, TE, Bowling Green
43. San Francisco 49ers - Josh Conerly Jr, OT, Oregon
44. Dallas Cowboys - Jonah Savaiinaea, OT, Arizona
45. Indianapolis Colts - Wyatt Milum, OG, West Virginia
46. Atlanta Falcons - Mike Green, EDGE, Marshall
47. Arizona Cardinals - Tre Harris, WR, Ole Miss
48. Miami Dolphins - Carson Schwesinger, LB, UCLA
49. New England Patriots (via CIN) - Marcus Mbow, OT, Purdue
50. Seattle Seahawks - Jalen Milroe, QB, Alabama
51. Denver Broncos - Kaleb Johnson, RB, Iowa
52. Seattle Seahawks - Trey Amos, CB, Ole Miss
53. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Deone Walker, DT, Kentucky
54. Green Bay Packers - Landon Jackson, EDGE, Arkansas
55. Los Angeles Chargers - Quinshon Judkins, RB, Ohio State
56. Buffalo Bills - Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa State
57. Carolina Panthers - Jaxson Dart, QB, Ole Miss
58. Houston Texans - Elic Ayomanor, WR, Stanford
59. Baltimore Ravens - JT Tuimoloau, EDGE, Ohio State
60. Detroit Lions - Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky
61. Washington Commanders - Princely Umanmielen, EDGE, Ole Miss
62. Buffalo Bills - Darius Alexander, DT, Toledo
63. Kansas City Chiefs - Isaiah Bond, WR, Texas
64. Philadelphia Eagles - Tate Ratledge, OG, Georgia
The Browns kick things off by taking Omarion Hampton from UNC. Hampton could easily hear his name called in the first round, but the Browns get him at pick 33 in our latest mock draft. At pick 50, the Seattle Seahawks grab QB Jalen Milroe. Sam Darnold’s deal is effectively a one-year pact, so it’s clear that the Seahawks did not show a slam-dunk, unquestionably strong level of confidence that Darnold can be their long-term plan.
A few picks later, we actually see another major QB move, as the Carolina Panthers grab Jaxson Dart from Ole Miss. Bryce Young did show a lot after his benching in 2024, but this is some high-end, developmental insurance for the Panthers.
Let’s get into the third and final round of our 2025 NFL Mock Draft.
Round 3
Here are the Round 3 picks. Let’s get into the major selections in the final round out of mock draft.
65. New York Giants - TJ Sanders, DT, South Carolina
66. Kansas City Chiefs - Bradyn Swinson, EDGE, LSU
67. Cleveland Browns - Darien Porter, CB, Iowa State
68. Las Vegas Raiders - TreVeyon Henderson, RB, Ohio State
69. New England Patriots - Mason Taylor, TE, LSU
70. Jacksonville Jaguars - Jaylin Noel, WR, Iowa State
71. New Orleans Saints - Emery Jones, OT, LSU
72. Chicago Bears - Alfred Collins, DT, Texas
73. New York Jets - Xavier Restrepo, WR, Miami (FL)
74. Carolina Panthers - Jared Wilson, OC, Georgia
75. San Francisco 49ers - Kyle Kennard, EDGE, South Carolina
76. Carolina Panthers (via DAL) - Barrett Carter, LB, Clemson
77. New England Patriots - Denzel Burke, CB, Ohio State
78. Arizona Cardinals - Chris Paul Jr, LB, Ole Miss
79. Houston Texans - Hollin Pierce, OT, Rutgers
80. Indianapolis Colts - Gunnar Helm, TE, Texas
81. Cincinnati Bengals - Andrew Mukuba, S, Texas
82. Seattle Seahawks - Kevin Winston Jr, S, Penn State

At pick 68, the Las Vegas Raiders are somehow able to grab TreVeyon Henderson from Ohio State. It’s actually a huge shock that he fell this far, but the Raiders get their bell-cow RB. At pick 93, the New Orleans Saints perhaps do some long-term planning and grab Quinn Ewers from Texas. With Derek Carr likely not being with the team for the long-term, the Saints front office grabs Ewers as a developmental prospect.
And in a pick of a shocking pick, the New York Giants actually double-dip at quarterback. They grabbed Shedeur Sanders in the first round and take Will Howard here at pick 99. Teams who do not have a franchise QB should not hesitate to take two quarterbacks every season until they find their guy, and this is what Giants’ GM Joe Schoen does.
