The NFL season has cruised past its midway point, but there's only a tiny fraction of clarity surrounding next year's draft. The uncertainty starts with the quarterbacks, with only two passers – Colorado's Shedeur Sanders and Miami's Cam Ward – truly establishing themselves as worthy of first-round consideration, while several other previous candidates – including Georgia's Carson Beck and Texas' Quinn Ewers – have seemingly faded a bit. A similar dynamic is in place for many other positions, with a shortage of surefire top-10 selections. And the top of the order still looks volatile, with 11 teams having either two or three wins. With all that in mind, here's our latest 2025 NFL mock draft projection, with the current first round order via Tankathon:
