The stage is set for the 2025 NFL Draft.
Starting on Thursday night, the entire incoming class of rookies will begin to learn where they will start their professional football journeys, and we here at SB Nation will follow along from Cam Ward — expected to be the first player drafted by the Tennessee Titans — all the way to “Mr. Irrelevant” on Saturday night.
While Ward is expected to come off the board first to the Titans, what happens after that remains a mystery. The Cleveland Browns seem to be locking in on Travis Hunter Jr. with the No. 2 pick, as the Heisman Trophy winner can contribute on both sides of the football as both a wide receiver and a cornerback. With the No. 3 selection, there is every expectation that the New York Giants will bolster their pass rush with Abdul Carter from Penn State.
As for the New England Patriots at No. 4, there continue to be rumors of LSU offensive lineman Will Campbell in that spot, as New England hopes to protect second-year quarterback Drake Maye.
Then the fun really begins with the Jacksonville Jaguars at No. 5.
When it comes to positions to watch, you might want to start with pass rusher. Beyond Carter several EDGE defenders will likely come off the board on Thursday night, including the Georgia tandem of Jalon Walker and Mykel Williams, Shemar Steward and Nic Scourton from Texas A&M, Mike Green from Marshall, James Pearce Jr. from Tennessee, and Donovan Ezeiruaku from Boston College.
Wide receiver is another fascinating position, and one to watch deeper into the draft. Arizona’s Tetairo McMillian is likely the first WR off the board, with Matthew Golden from Texas and Ohio State’s Emeka Egbuka potential first-round picks. Day Two might see several receivers coming off the board, as that position group has lots of solid players in that range of the draft.
Running back might just be the most fascinating position to watch. Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty leads the way, but Omarion Hampton from North Carolina could join him in the first round. The second round could see both TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins from Ohio State come off the board, as well as Kaleb Johnson from Iowa. Then there is Cameron Skattebo, who powered Arizona State to a spot in the College Football Playoff.
Regardless of how the board falls, we will have every pick for you here throughout the entire 2025 NFL Draft.
