The NFL postseason has arrived and that means the top 18 picks are locked in for the 2025 NFL Draft. Who will teams like the Titans, Browns, and Giants select? Let’s take a look at a 2025 NFL Mock Draft.
2025 NFL Mock Draft
The Titans score the number 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft and they are on the clock. The Browns fall at no. 2 and the Giants are no. 3. Let’s see what we think each team might end up doing when the draft rolls around.
1. Titans – Cam Ward (QB, Miami FL)
The big debate from now until draft day will be should the Titans take Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders. Ward has made a big jump this season and has shown great arm strength along with the ability to work quicker from the pocket. He’s gotten better with each college season and looks like he has the tools to be a quality starter as the Titans move on from Will Levis.
2. Browns – Shedeur Sanders (QB, Colorado)
We are not going to rule on the Browns trading down and getting value for the no. 2 pick. Teams like the Giants (no. 3) or the Raiders (no. 6) could easily move up to get a quarterback if the Browns make them believe Shedeur Sanders goes right after Ward. The Browns have a sticky QB situation themselves and could easily grab Sanders at no. 2 to build for the future with Deshaun Watson’s massive contract running through 2026.
3. Giants – Travis Hunter (WR/CB, Colorado)
The Giants are in a tough spot as they have to deal with the potential of missing out on a quarterback when they have a massive need at the position. Travis Hunter is an elite wide receiver and cornerback with so much versatility he will be hard to pass up. The Giants have needs in the secondary and could use Hunter in a variety of ways.

4. Patriots – Kelvin Banks Jr. (OT, Texas)
The Patriots need to build a strong offensive line around young quarterback Drake Maye and they will definitely be looking to add a talented tackle like Kelvin Banks Jr. at number 4 overall. After a year of injuries and inconsistent play on their line, the Pats need to add talent and depth quickly in the draft.
5. Jaguars – Will Johnson (CB, Michigan)
The Jaguars need a boost in their secondary as several players are hitting contract years in 2025. Will Johnson is an elite corner with the ability to shut down top wideouts. While he was hurt most of the 2024 season, we saw what he could do in 2023 when he helped Michigan win a national title. He’s long (6’2″) and has the athletic ability to match up with anyone.
6. Raiders – Mason Graham (DT, Michigan)
The Raiders could consider trying to trade up because they are desperate for a quarterback heading into 2025. If they stay put, it would be hard to pass on Mason Graham would is a monster defending the run and is a legitimate pass rusher from the inside. The Raiders could add him to their defensive front and try to address their quarterback situation in free agency with players like Sam Darnold, Justin Fields, and Russell Wilson set to hit the market.
7. Jets – Adbul Carter (Edge, Penn State)
The Jets are also in quarterback limbo but they need help on the defensive line to give some help to Quinnen Williams. They can scoop up one of the top talents in the draft in Abdul Carter to give them another strong option in their pass rush.
8. Panthers – Mykel Williams (Edge, Georgia)
Well, the Panthers defense was absolutely horrible in 2024. They gave up an insane 534 points (most since the 1981 Colts) and they were last in the league in QB pressures. Adding a strong edge rusher like Mykel Williams here would be huge for Carolina as they look like they might have something in Bryce Young at quarterback.
9. Saints – Nic Scourton (Edge, Texas A&M)
The Saints struggled on both sides of the ball and ended up 5-12 with quarterback Derek Carr missing much of the season. The defense could use a boost when it comes to getting after the quarterback and the edge rusher class is strong for 2025. Adding Nic Scourton here makes sense for a team looking to get after the quarterback.
10. Bears – Will Campbell (OT, LSU)
The Bears need upgrades on the offensive line and they are likely going to be taking the best available offensive tackle here. Will Campbell is an instant upgrade and should develop into a solid starter who can protect quarterback Caleb Williams.
11. 49ers – James Pearce Jr. (Edge, Tennessee)
The 49ers need depth on the defensive line and especially players who can rush the passer. Joey Bosa could really use another solid edge rusher to free him up in 2025. James Pearce Jr. has slid slightly down draft boards but he is still a great talent coming off the edge.
12. Cowboys – Ashton Jeanty (RB, Boise State)
The Cowboys need a running back as their run game in 2024 was awful. Ashton Jeanty is a top-5 talent in the draft and showed just how dominant he can be with 2,601 rushing yards and 29 touchdowns at Boise State in 2024. He is probably too good for the Cowboys to pass up.
13. Dolphins – Malaki Starks (S, Georgia)
The Dolphins will need to add depth everywhere in their secondary and they could add the best safety in the draft in Malaki Starks here. Starks has played all over the field at Georgia and is an extremely versatile player with a great football IQ. He has the tools to be an immediate impact player for Miami.
14. Colts – Tyler Warren (TE, Penn State)
While the Colts need help on the interior offensive line, it looks like they will be able to score a solid guard in round 2. This frees up the first round for them to add talent at tight end like Tyler Warren to give QB Anthony Richardson another weapon on offense.
15. Falcons – Jalon Walker (Edge, Georiga)
The Falcons are losing a few pass rushers to free agency and will need to replace them early in the draft. Jalon Walker is one of many talented edge rushers in 2025. The Falcons were sixth worst in the NFL in pass rush win rate. They also haven’t had a double-digit sack defender since 2016.
16. Cardinals – Walter Nolen (DT, Ole Miss)
The Cardinals have plenty of decisions in free agency as pass rushers like Dennis Gardeck, Baron Browning, and Julian Okwara are set for free agency. The defensive front is going to need depth moving forward and Walter Nolen is good at slipping blocks to get into the backfield. He has great range and high motor that will be great in Arizona.
17. Bengals – Josh Simmons (OT, Ohio State)
The Bengals have to figure out what to do with WR Tee Higgins but their offensive line could use depth too to keep Joe Burrow healthy. The Bengals really need help on defense and could easily scoop up an edge rusher like Pearce Jr. or Walker if they fall this far.
18. Seahawks – Tyler Booker (OG, Alabama)
The Seahawks biggest question mark heading into 2025 is the offensive line. Recent draft picks have not performed well as Geno Smith has been beaten up over the last two seasons. Tyler Booker from Alabama adds a nice piece to the interior offensive line in Seattle.
19. Steelers – Benjamin Morrison (CB, Notre Dame)
The Steelers have received inconsistent play from CB2 in the past couple of seasons and will likely address their secondary here. Benjamin Morrison would be a nice addition to the secondary to team up with Joey Porter Jr.
20. Texans – Tetairoa McMillan (WR, Arizona)
The Texans need to beef up the interior offensive line but it looks like they will have the ability to do that in the second round. In round 1, they add the talented wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan from Arizona to boost CJ Stroud’s confidence after he took a step back in year 2.
21. Broncos – Colston Loveland (TE, Michigan)
Sean Payton loves utilizing the tight end position and adding Colston Loveland to the mix will give a growing offense another option. Bo Nix has really improved throughout 2024 and adding Loveland to team up with wide receiver Courtland Sutton could make this offense even more dangerous next season.
22. Rams – Josh Conerly Jr. (OT, Oregon)
If a tight end like Tyler Warren or Colston Loveland is available here, the Rams would likely scoop him up. It doesn’t look like that is the case and the Rams add another solid player on the offensive line with Josh Conerly Jr. from Oregon.
23. Bucs – Jihaad Campbell (LB, Alabama)
The Bucs can add Jihaad Campbell at no. 23 to give them a linebacker with great range and instincts. He can also rush off the edge and will be a great three-down option for the Bucs alongside Lavonte David.
24. Packers – Shavon Revel Jr. (CB, ECU)
Cornerback is high on the Packers’ list of needs as we saw Jaire Alexander deal with injuries this year and Eric Stokes is headed for free agency. Shavon Revel Jr. will be coming off an ACL injury but he is great on tape with excellent length and athleticism.
25. Chargers – Shemar Turner (Edge, Texas A&M)
If a top tight end falls this fall, we wouldn’t be surprised to see Jim Harbaugh scoop him up. It looks like his best options will be gone so the Chargers will add to their pass rush with the best available edge rusher in Shemar Turner from Texas A&M.
26. Commanders – Cameron Williams (OT, Texas)
The Commanders will be looking at an edge rusher or offensive line in the first round and Cameron Williams from Texas makes sense to protect Jayden Daniels. If one of the better edge rushers slides, they could go that route too.
27. Ravens – Jonah Savaiinaea (OT, Arizona)
The Ravens play a physical style of football and it makes sense they will add more depth to their offensive line at the end of the first round. Jonah Savaiinaea has the size and strength to anchor which is great news for QB Lamar Jackson.
28. Vikings – Jahdae Barron (CB, Texas)
Free agency could be cruel to the Vikings cornerback room and that means we could see them targeting the secondary in the draft. Jahdae Barron is the best available cornerback here and Minnesota won’t pass on him. Barron can cover in the slot as well as on the outside which would be a huge boost for the Vikings.
29. Bills – Derrick Harmon (DT, Oregon)
The Bills were in the middle of the league in rush yards given up per game as well as sacks. They can address that here by adding a beast on the interior like Derrick Harmon from Oregon. He was second-best in pressure rate in the FBS when he lined up on the inside.
30. Eagles – Tre Harris (WR, Ole Miss)
The Eagles need help at wide receiver as well as edge rusher. With edge rushers flying off the board in round 1, the Eagles could easily add a wide receiver like Tre Harris late in the first round. Harris is a big target who can stretch the field.
31. Chiefs – Aireontae Ersery (OT, Minnesota)
The Chiefs have been picking late in the first round for years and it can be hard to predict what they will do depending on what falls in their lap. They have needs up front on the offensive line and it would not be surprising to see them add depth with Aireontae Ersery.
32. Lions – Jared Ivey (Edge, Ole Miss)
The Lions need another edge rusher to complement Aidan Hutchinson on the outside. This was made very clear when the Lions lost Hutchinson for the season back in week 6. You can expect Detroit to be looking at the best available edge rusher at the end of the first round. Jared Ivey for Ole Miss fits that criteria here.
