The 2025 NFL Draft class won’t be a bad one. But it might be a weird one. The best player in this class isn’t sure what his position will be. The best position in this class (cornerback) is one teams typically shy away from toward the top of the first round. The position usually most in demand (offensive line) is certainly intriguing, but nowhere near on the level of what the ’24 class offered. And the quarterbacks? Insert the concerned Larry David face here. That’s not to say this class is lacking terrific prospects or players who can help NFL teams next season, but there might not be much of a consensus come April. To set the order for this mock, we’re using Austin Mock’s NFL projections model. Let’s get into it.
