NFL mock drafts 2025: Compare latest from Mel Kiper, Daniel Jeremiah, Dane Brugler, other experts | Sporting News

The NFL offseason has arrived, meaning it's officially "Mock Draft Season." While the 2025 NFL Draft won't arrive until April 24, plenty of the league's analysts, media members, and writers take the weeks following the Super Bowl to predict where the top draft-eligible players will land.
With the NFL Combine beginning Thursday and prospects putting their skills on display, anticipation for the draft is building.
The combine can help boost the draft stock of undervalued talent, giving front offices an idea of the athleticism a player may bring to their squad.
As scouts further evaluate the pool of players for the draft, mock drafts will be evolving and there are already some differing predictions on how the NFL Draft will go.
Especially without a clear-cut No.
1 choice this year, there's some uncertainty on how things will play out in April.
