As we inch closer to Thanksgiving, here’s BroBible’s 2025 NFL Mock Draft version 1.0
We’re getting towards the end of the college football season, and it’s officially mock draft season. This NFL mock draft isn’t one that is saying what teams should do. Rather, it’s saying what we think teams will do.
In a rarity, all 32 teams own their own first round pick for next April’s NFL Draft. The draft order is the official draft order heading into Week 12.
Jacksonville Jaguars: Colorado CB/WR Travis Hunter
The Jacksonville Jaguars need a lot of help in the secondary, and the franchise needs a jolt of energy. Travis Hunter solves both of those problems. It will likely be a new GM/head coach pairing in Jacksonville, and they’ll have to figure out how they want to use a guy who wants to play both ways in the NFL.
2. Tennessee Titans: Miami (FL) QB Cam Ward
The Will Levis experiment is not working out in Tennessee. Right now, Cam Ward is the top quarterback on many people’s big boards. The Titans would have a new face of the franchise to rebuild around.
3. Cleveland Browns: Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders
Who knows if Deion Sanders would allow Shedeur to go to Cleveland. If he does, it’s hard to see the Browns passing up Sanders. His accuracy, anticipation, and toughness all project as above-average NFL traits.
4. New York Giants: Michigan CB Will Johnson
The Giants miss out on the top two quarterbacks, and I don’t think the next guy in this mock draft is the right fit, as I think they want someone more NFL ready. They need a lot of help in the secondary, and Will Johnson will help immediately. He projects as a number-one corner from day one, with serious All-Pro upside.
5. Las Vegas Raiders: Alabama QB Jalen Milroe
The Raiders desperately need a face of the franchise, and that’s exactly what Jalen Milroe will be. Make no mistake, he needs significant development as a passer. But all the tools are there for him to be a solid starting quarterback in the NFL. He would benefit from being eased into the starting role.
6. New England Patriots: WR Tetairoa McMillan
Drake Maye looks like a long-term answer at quarterback. The two biggest needs are on the offensive line and at wide receiver. There’s not an offensive lineman that provides enough value here, so they go with McMillan. McMillan is a phenomenal player in the Mike Evans mold. They’d gladly take the career Mike Evans had from McMillan.
7. New York Jets: Michigan DT Mason Graham
The Jets have been susceptible to the run all year, and this pick gets them one of the best three or four players in the entire draft at a position of need. Graham has the potential to be a true difference maker in the middle of any NFL defense.
8. Carolina Panthers: Penn State Edge Abdul Carter
The Panthers desperately need to improve the pass rush. While Abdul Carter is still a bit raw, he’s improving every week for Penn State and is dominating Big Ten offensive tackles in his first year with his hand in the dirt. In terms of potential, he’s the best edge in the class.
9. Dallas Cowboys: Texas OL Kelvin Banks
The Cowboys have lots of needs. They love to build through the trenches on both sides, and Kelvin Banks is a perfect pick with Zach Martin like to move on in free agency. Banks could stick at tackle, or move inside to guard. It’s hard to see him not having a long and productive NFL career at either spot.
10. New Orleans Saints: Texas A&M Edge Nic Scourton
While Abdul Carter is a quick-twitch bender around the edge, Scourton is all power. The Purdue transfer is relentless, strong, and physical at the point of attack, using great hands to overpower offensive linemen. That’s the kind of player the Saints need.
11. Cincinnati Bengals: Georgia Edge Mykel Williams
Trey Hendrickson is a likely trade candidate, as the Bengals may not be able to afford to extend him. Enter Mykel Williams. Williams has shown flashes of dominance at Georgia, even if he is a bit raw. He should dominate the pre-draft process, and could turn into a sack artist in the NFL.
12. Miami Dolphins: LSU OL Will Campbell
Tua Tagovailoa is the key to the Dolphins franchise, and protecting him is paramount. Terron Armstead has been fantastic at left tackle. Campbell should step in at right tackle, Tua’s blindside, as a solid starter from day one.
13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Georgia LB Jalon Walker
The Buccaneers desperately need speed and athleticism on defense. Enter Jalon Walker. Walker can play both as a box linebacker as well as a pass-rusher. He’s one of the most athletic players in the NFL Draft, and would provide a huge boost to the Bucs defense.
14. Chicago Bears: Georgia S Malaki Starks
The Bears have made it clear in recent drafts that they want to draft the best player available. While safety may not be ahead of offensive line in terms of need, it’s still a position that could be upgraded. If Starks lives up to his potential, he is a perennial Pro Bowler.
15. Indianapolis Colts: Michigan TE Colston Loveland
The Colts have a dire situation at tight end, and Colston Loveland can solve that problem. Despite poor quarterback play this year, Loveland has been very productive, just as he was last year with good quarterback play. He shows potential as a blocker, even if he’s not quite there yet. He could become Anthony Richardson’s security blanket.
16. Seattle Seahawks: Arizona OL Jonah Savaiinaea
Offensive line continues to be a need for the Seahawks. Enter Savaiinaea, who projects as a swing guard/tackle at the next level. He has the ability to be a true differnce maker at guard, and a solid starter as a tackle.
17. Los Angeles Rams: Notre Dame CB Benjamin Morrison
The Rams invested in their defensive front last draft. Now, it’s time to invest in the back end. Morrison suffered a season-ending hip injury earlier this year, otherwise he’d be going as early as the top ten. He’s a sticky cover guy with great hips that should lock down NFL wide receivers for a long time.
18. San Francisco 49ers: West Virginia OL Wyatt Milum
The 49ers need help along the offensive line. Wyatt Milum has arguably been the best offensive lineman in college football this year. While he’s unlikely to stay at left tackle in the pros, he projects as a Pro Bowler at every other spot on the line.
19. Denver Broncos: Missouri WR Luther Burden III
Bo Nix has impressed this year. A jitterbug wide receiver like Luther Burden would be an awesome chess piece for Nix and Sean Payton.
20. Atlanta Falcons: Tennessee Edge James Pearce Jr.
Pearce was much higher than this on a lot of preseason mock drafts. A slow start moved him down some big boards, but he’s played good last six weeks. He’s still raw, but his prototypical frame and solid athleticism could be molded into a very good pass rusher.
21. Arizona Cardinals: Michigan DT Kenneth Grant
The Cardinals have serious holes on the defensive line. Enter Kenneth Grant. The bohemoth will add serious size, power, and athleticism to the Arizona front from day one.
22. Washington Commanders: Ohio State OL Josh Simmons
Protecting Jayden Daniels is going to be top priority in Washington for the foreseeable future. Enter Josh Simmons. Before suffering a season-ending injury, Simmons had showed considerable growth as a pass blocker, and has the potential to be a long-term starter as a blindside tackle.
23. Houston Texans: Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty
The Houston Texans are the benefactors of the fact that NFL teams are anathema to using early picks on running backs. Jeanty, the best player in college football this year, could certainly go higher than this. But, if he falls this far, I’m sure Houston would love pairing a special talent at running back with CJ Stroud.
24. Baltimore Ravens: Minnesota OL Aireontae Ersery
The Ravens have a huge problem at right tackle. Enter Aireontae Ersery. He’s a behometh who has showed sharp improvement in his college career. He’s going to be dominant in the run game, and has the tools to grow into a solid pass blocker.
25. Los Angeles Chargers: Penn State TE Tyler Warren
Jim Harbaugh loves his tight ends, but the group for the Chargers is pretty weak. Enter Tyler Warren. The best tight end in college football this year is both an apt route runner and a fantastic player after the catch, good enough with the ball in his hands that Penn State frequently lines him up at quarterback, his high school position. Warren is going to be a very good tight end for a very long time. Justin Herbert will love him.
26. Green Bay Packers: Ole Miss DT Walter Nolen
The interior of the defensive line is a problem for Green Bay, especially someone who can help a so-so pass rush. Nolen is athletic enough to play as far wide as a five-technique, and hasn’t even scratched the surface of his potential.
27. Pittsburgh Steelers: Texas WR Isaiah Bond
The Steelers desperately need to find a second wide receiver to pair with George Pickens. Isaiah Bond is a speedster with a much different skillset than Pickens, make him a fantastic fit in Pittsburgh.
28. Minnesota Vikings: UNC RB Omarion Hampton
Aaron Jones has been solid, but is aging and slowing down. If not for Ashton Jeanty, Hampton would be getting a lot more attention. He’s dynamic both as a runner and as a pass-catcher, something that head coach Kevin O’Connell values.
29. Philadelphia Eagles: Texas A&M Edge Shemar Stewart
The Eagles are going to be in the market for a pass rusher. Enter Shemar Stewart. Don’t be fooled by his lackluster stats. Stewart gets consistent pressure, and his 6-foot-6 290LB frame can play across the defensive line. The sky is the limit for Stewart, and few franchises develop players better than Philadelphia.
30. Buffalo Bills: Ohio State WR Emeka Egbuka
Keon Coleman was a good start in the effort to rebuild Josh Allen’s weapons. Now, the Bills get a technician to pair with the physical freak Coleman and the YAC specialist Khalil Shakir. Egbuka isn’t an elite athlete, but he knows how to get open and leverage defensive backs. He’s NFL-ready.
31. Kansas City Chiefs: Stanford WR Elic Ayomanor
Ayomanor may have as much upside as any receiver in the NFL. And, unlike the Chiefs’ other young receivers, he’s a true X receiver that can physically overwhelm defensive backs. Patrick Mahomes will love throwing the ball to Elic Ayomanor.
32. Detroit Lions: Alabama Edge LT Overton
The Lions don’t have a lot of holes, and LT Overton is a luxury pick. Overton, who will start his NFL career at just 20 years old, has immense physical production that is starting to show up on tape. The Lions can afford to work him in slowly and wait for that potential to emerge even more.
