That was the text response from an NFL scout when I asked how he would stack the 2025 NFL Draft’s quarterback prospects. Teams are not excited about this group of passers because each feels more like a risky bet than a safe one. That doesn’t mean one or two won’t be drafted in the top 10. That doesn’t mean a few of these quarterbacks won’t eventually become established NFL starters. But with all of the varying opinions throughout the league, the only consensus at this stage in the process is that teams are struggling to find positive conviction on any of these QBs. We still have more than five months until the 2025 NFL Draft kicks off from Green Bay, including several pivotal games on college football’s regular-season schedule and the expanded College Football Playoff, which will create fluctuation in these rankings. After that, the underclassmen deadline, all-star games and pre-draft workouts will play crucial roles in shaping the final board.
