2025 Mock NFL Draft
Most years I like to take a stab at a mock NFL draft. Everybody else is doing it, so why not me? This draft should be particularly interesting for Michigan fans, because the program could set a school record with four (4!!!) first round picks in the form of Mason Graham, Kenneth Grant, Will Johnson, and Colston Loveland (in no particular order other than alphabetical).
1. Tennessee Titans: Cam Ward – QB – Miami
Why? He seems to be the consensus choice here, and Tennessee has all but announced the pick already.
2. Cleveland Browns: Travis Hunter – CB/WR – Colorado
Why? Cleveland needs a lot of help, but there are no quarterbacks worth taking here. Hunter fills a couple holes. Personally, I think he should be a cornerback and moonlight at wide receiver, because it’s easier to find good receivers than it is to find elite corners. It’s also tough to mostly be a wide receiver and then be ready for whatever a defense throws at you if you’re only a part-time cornerback. If you have special packages on offense, the offense gets to dictate how and when that package is used, instead of the other way around.
3. New York Giants: Abdul Carter – DE – Penn State
Why? I actually don’t love this pick here because I don’t see it as a huge need for the Giants, but they get a chance to pick a player who some people think is the best player in the draft (or second best behind Hunter). In some ways, it could be a good “value” pick even though it’s still a top-three choice.
