2025 NFL Mock Draft: Bengals add blocker for Joe Burrow; Broncos select another receiver for Bo Bix

Hunter is the best player in college football with immense two-way abilities. The Jaguars could use an elite talent at cornerback, and Hunter’s dynamic receiving skills would help a sputtering offense, too.

McMillan is having a Drake London-type season for Arizona in a similar frame with similar traits. And the Titans desperately need receiving weapons for Will Levis.

Can’t shake this pairing for now. Milroe has massive upside but probably isn’t ready to start until 2026, which is when the Browns can more reasonably move on from Deshaun Watson.

The Giants will be drafting a quarterback in 2025, and Ward, while not someone with premier traits, has looked like a quarterback with high-level starting skills in the right NFL situation.

Sanders in Las Vegas — potentially with his dad at head coach — is sensible. I like the idea the more I think about it. With a high-caliber tight end in place and plenty of cap space, the Raiders can surprise with quality quarterback play in 2025.

Williams has All-Pro traits, and with the correct development in New England can maximize those reasonably raw skills.

The Jets go the prudent route with the steady LSU tackle to build the offensive line in the future.

Carter is having a tremendous season at Penn State and has Micah Parsons-like physical traits. The Panthers have to add a premier edge-rushing talent to the roster.

If any team would pick a running back in the top 10, it’d be this Jerry Jones club. Jeanty is a premier talent.

The Saints get Derek Carr another polished Ohio State receiver in Egbuka, who’s looked ready for the NFL since last season.

Banks would help solidify what’s been a shaky Bengals offensive line this season protecting Joe Burrow.

The Dolphins stop the Johnson slide to pair him with Jalen Ramsey before eventually taking over as the No. 1 corner spot.

The Buccaneers plan for the future at receiver with Burden, who’s demonstrated first-round traits and production since his early days at Missouri.

Starks is simply too good and NFL-ready of a player for the Bears to pass on him here. Three-down playmaker.

The Colts get a multidimensional linebacker-edge rusher to add more juice to the defense.

The Seahawks have a clear need at linebacker, and Perkins, when healthy, is probably the most dynamic prospect at the position in this class.

The Rams get a high-upside blocker to plug in at either tackle spot in 2025. Simmons has been awesome in pass pro this season,.

Scourton looks like he’ll be ready to rock as a rookie because of his length, power, and ascending hand work. Exactly what the 49ers need.

The Broncos snag the lightning-quick Restrepo, who’s demonstrated fantastic hands in 2024, to be the chain-moving slot for Bo Nix.

The Falcons don’t even have 10 sacks as a defense entering Week 12. They desperately need a genuine No. 1 outside rusher, and Pearce has those traits.

Another NFC team with an edge need, and Overton has been the classic breakout star on Alabama’s defense this season.

The Commanders roll the dice with the injured star cornerback from outside the Power 4. When healthy, Revel looks like a first-round talent with ball skills and plus athleticism.

The Texans probably feel fine with their tackle situation, but this Milum selection is about simply playing the five best blockers in front of C.J. Stroud.

Graham is too talented and too productive for the Ravens to pass on here. He and Justin Madubuike would formulate a tremendous interior tandem in Baltimore.

Jim Harbaugh calls this pick in immediately when he sees the best tight end in the class, whom he recruited and coached at Michigan, still available.

The Packers need more girth inside, and Sanders is a wide-bodied, three-down defender who’s flashed upfield as a pass rusher on South Carolina’s stellar defensive front this season.

Grant is an upfield rusher who’s played like an early-round pick across multiple seasons at Michigan. He and Keeanu Benton would be a fun complementary tandem inside.

The Vikings add an enormous and athletic defensive tackle to make life easier for their outside rushers in Brian Flores’ blitz-obsessed scheme.

Another speedy wideout for Jalen Hurts in Nick Sirianni’s offense.

Umanmielen has pieced together yet another magnificent season rushing the quarterback in the SEC. He’d be a steal here for the Bills this late in Round 1.

Nolen would give Chris Jones a legitimate running mate getting upfield as a rusher. The Ole Miss star has demolished offensive lines with regularity this season.

The Lions add another boundary weapon to the offense in Royals, who’s dangerous over the top of the defense and when needing to make a defender miss in space.
