The NFL Draft starts today, so I’m here to give you a mock draft so that you can maybe mock me when we see how accurate I was. Last year I correctly chose the first four picks. With trades in the first round and secrets deep in the front office, we never really know how the night will unfold. Here are our NFL Mock Draft 2025 first-round picks.
- Tennessee Titans – Cam Ward – QB – This could be a huge boom or bust pick, but Ward is the best quarterback available in this draft.
- Cleveland Browns – Travis Hunter – CB/WR – The Browns have a big question mark at quarterback, but I believe they take the best player left on the board and get the versatile playmaker from Colorado.
- New York Giants – Abdul Carter – The Giants added not one but two QBs in free agency and could be cleaning house after another unsuccessful year, so they won’t have the green light to draft a QB.
- New England Patriots – Will Campbell – OT – A total gamechanger on the line, this is how Mike Vrabel instills hard-nosed football back into the New England Patriots building.
- Jacksonville Jaguars – Mason Graham – DT – The Jags get the best interior defensive lineman in the draft at five and fix a huge area of weakness.
- Las Vegas Raiders – Ashton Jeanty – RB – The Raiders get a generational running back who put up eye-popping numbers in college to revamp their offense.
- New York Jets – Armand Membou – OT – The Jets put an investment into Justin Fields to be their QB so how about protecting him up front with a replacement for free agency losses.
- Carolina Panthers – Jalon Walker – EDGE – Anytime you have the worst defense in the league the year before, you should probably address it. That’s exactly what the Panthers do here.
- New Orleans Saints – Jaxson Dart – QB – WOAH! This is the first big surprise of the night, Dart goes over Shedeur Sanders, and the Saints get their next QB.
- Chicago Bears – Tyler Warren – TE – This guy was a beast in college and could be the next really great NFL tight end, as the Bears give Caleb Williams a new weapon.
- San Francisco 49ers – Shemar Stewart – EDGE – The 49ers want a guy who can get after the QB opposite of Nick Bosa and Stewart fits that need.
- Dallas Cowboys – Tetairoa McMillan – WR – The best wide receiver in this draft is finally off the board at 12 as CeeDee Lamb gets a partner in crime.
- Miami Dolphins – Jahdae Barron – S – As they look to trade Jalen Ramsey, Barron is the successor and an accomplished one at that.
- Indianapolis Colts – Colston Loveland – TE – The Colts have been looking for a franchise tight end and get it with Loveland, the second best one on the board.
- Atlanta Falcons – Mykel Williams – EDGE – The Falcons get lucky here and they draft a terrific EDGE rusher who fell further than expected.
- Arizona Cardinals – Will Johnson – CB – The Cardinals get much needed help in their secondary and nab the best corner in the draft late in the first.
- Cincinnati Bengals – Derrick Harmon – DT – The Bengals desperately need help on their defensive line and Harmon is a big (literally) pick.
- Seattle Seahawks – Kelvin Banks Jr. – OT – The Seahawks get a break with Kelvin Banks Jr. dropping all the way to 18, an immediate day 1 starter.
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Jihad Campbell – LB – Lavonte David isn’t getting any younger and the Bucs need his replacement in-house to learn this year.
- Denver Broncos – Omarion Hampton – RB – Jeanty is getting all the shine but watch out for Hampton who is quick and bursty and will start on day 1.
- Pittsburgh Steelers – Shedeur Sanders – QB – There he goes, Sanders falls to 21 but still gets drafted in the first round and goes to a great franchise.
- Los Angeles Chargers – Matthew Golden – WR – They have added a wide receiver at the top of nearly all their drafts and that doesn’t stop here as they look to boost Herbert’s game.
- Green Bay Packers – Maxwell Hairston – CB – They missed out on Will Johnson and Barron and need a DB badly, so they go with the Kentucky star.
- Minnesota Vikings – Nick Emmanwori – S – Brian Flores needs help on the backside of his defense and he gets a steal here with the South Carolina DB.
- Houston Texans – Tyler Booker – G – The Alabama guard gets a home in Houston where he gets to protect C.J. Stroud from the second he walks into the building.
- Los Angeles Rams – Josh Conerley – OT – This is a safe pick for the Rams who get protection on the line and a starter.
- Baltimore Ravens – Malaki Starks – S – He can play deep, he can transition inside and play nickel, this is an excellent pick late in the first.
- Detroit Lions – Mike Green – EDGE – Green could’ve been top 10 but off-the-field issues pushed him down the board and he falls to Detroit.
- Washington Commanders – Donovan Ezeiruaku – EDGE – The Commanders add a pass-rusher but could even trade out of this spot and stockpile picks.
- Buffalo Bills – Trey Amos – CB – The Bills lost in free agency at the cornerback position and build it up here with a talented CB.
- Kansas City Chiefs – Josh Simmons – OT – With so many questions on their offensive line, you don’t pass up a chance to protect Patrick Mahomes here.
- Philadelphia Eagles – Walter Nolen – DT – The Eagles lost a lot up front this offseason so they replenish here, and Howie Roseman does what he does best.
