NFL Draft 2025 – 17 Prospects Invited to Attend

Travis Hunter, Cam Ward, Abdul Carlter & Ashton Jeanty Highlight Event in Green Bay

Frank Coyle/ Head scout

Seventeen prospects have accepted invitations to attend the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay, Wisconsin, which begins at 8 p.m. ET on April 24. The group includes three of the top quarterbacks in this year’s class and one of the most fascinating draft prospects in recent memory. QB Cam Ward is expected to hear his name called #1 overall by the Tennessee Titans and will be at the event in Green Bay. He heads a trio of QBs in attendance, including talented SEC passers, Jaxson Dart (Mississippi) and Jalen Milroe (Alabama).

Among the 17 attendees are nine offensive players, seven defensive prospects and one unique two-way blue chip prospect, Travis Hunter of Colorado. Hunter won the Heisman Trophy playing both sides of the ball — excelling at wide receiver and cornerback and probably lines up at both positions in the NFL.

The Heisman runner-up, Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty, will also be in attendance. Jeanty, who ran for 2,601 yards last season, is seeking to join Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson as the only running backs drafted in the top 10 since 2018.

Three of the highly touted talents at wide receiver — Hunter, Texas’ Matthew Golden and Arizona’s Tetairoa McMillan — will be in Titletown for this year’s draft.  They head a deep group of receivers which probably will provide the most draft selections over the seven rounds.  The offensive line will be represented by Alabama’s Tyler Booker, LSU’s Will Campbell and Ohio State’s Josh Simmons. Most of the 17 prospects will be selected on the first round, though a couple may have to wait until day two to hear their name called. It always create drama as the 32 selections are made to see if all know their pro destination. Regardless, any remaining player will probably go very early in the 2nd round and still a core member of their new club.

NFL Draft 2025

 Wide Receivers – Grade: A

NFL Teams need:

1. Jaguars           5 Cowboys
2. Chargers        6 Browns
3. Bears               7 Cardinals
4. Rams               8 Commanders

Travis Hunter of Colorado is the only prospect in Draft Insiders’ history to rank at two positions. He is both the #1 receiver and #1 cornerback – an amazing feat considering that each position is one of the premier groups in the NFL. Hunter is unrivaled with players to compare to overall. At wideout, we compare him to John Jefferson is size, athleticism and overall development. As a cornerback we compare him to Champ Bailey who saw some actioin at receiver and returner.  He did not average anywhere near 110 snaps per game like Hunter. Truly a generational prospect and capable of being an impact regular performer on both sides of the ball.  He has been our #1 overall prospect since last August and we never considered moving him down at any time.

Positional Overview: With the evolution of the expanded NFL passing game over the past decade, receivers have become the dominant performers in a pro-offense. At this year’s NFL Combine, another record number of receivers (26) ran sub 4.5 forty times.  Matthew Golden led the class with a blazing 4.29 time, though it fell short of the new NFL Combine record an amazing 4.21 sprint by Xavier Worthy during last year’s combine. Nine other players ran sub 4.4 times as the advanced training methods produce new manufactured speed. This year’s group is an exceptionally deep and a quality class which may rival the best of recent classes. This is a very strong group from the top ten through the middle rounds. This deep class has many blue and red chip prospects. This class has the talent and depth at the position to be a bumper crop which should produce many new NFL starters and a record number of overall selections. This position could provide many playmakers with as many as 5-6 with 1st round choices. The top four prospects, Travis Hunter, Tetairoa McMillan, Matthew Golden and Luther Burden are playmakers at a high level of development to provide rookie impact. Each is rated as 1st round receivers. Hunter is a multi-position blue chip athlete at both wideout and cornerback. He is unrivaled as a two-way prospect with elite skills on both sides of the ball. Another receiver Emeka Egbuka is a possible 1st round pick after strong 2024 performance. The top 100 could provide a new record of prospects with 15+ chosen. Unheralded prospects, Jayden Higgins, Jack Bech, Isaiah Bond and Jalen Royals are all potential early NFL starters with above average developed skills. Probably 35+ receivers could go over the seven-round event. The underclassmen will once again play a huge factor here. There are a few fast-rising prospect like Jaylin Noel and Kyle Williams are moving up quickly off impressive postseasons. There will be many rookie FAs who carry make it grades entering camp and most likely practice squad members.

NFL Draft  2025 – Cornerback Class A

Frank Coyle/ Head Scout & Staff
www.draftinsiders.com

Cornerbacks – Top 40 Prospects – Grade: A

Positional Overview:
This year’s cornerback class is a high-quality group which is very deep and especially top heavy with a few premier prospects. There are a few blue chips expected to go in the ton ten selections. Travis Hunter is our #1 overall prospect with rare talent and impact at two positions. He will go in the top 4 prospects in the 1st round. Will Johnson shows prototypical skills and is expected to go in the top 10-12 overall selections. Underclassmen dominate our top ten prospects, though the senior group is a very solid with nice development. Jahdae Barron is a developed versatile prospect and probable mid-first round selection. He could be selected in the top 10 overall picks with a rookie starting grade. Maxwell Hairston has the skill set to start early and is NFL ready after an awesome final performance and NFL Combine effort. He probably goes in the later 1st round area. Shavon Revel Jr. and Benjamin Morrison are highly regarded defenders who missed extensive time in 2024 to injuries which cost them 1st round grades. They most likely go on the 2nd day and great value for clubs. Azareye’h Thomas is another in a long line of FSU corners to enter the NFL. He is a physical cover man with the NFL makeup to excel on the outside. Trey Amos has prototypical shutdown skills for the pro game. He is rising fast and could earn a late 1st round selection. Darien Porter, Dorian Strong and Nohl Williams are rising cover men with well-developed talent to press for early starting time. Both Jacob Parrish and Denzel Burke are battle tested and figure is coming off an impressive career finish. Parrish is one of the best ball hawks in this class and has the length DCs like in outside defenders. Both are well developed athletes who are NFL ready. Bihlal Kone, Caleb Ransaw and Jordan Hancock are coming off impressive final performances plus strong postseason workouts. They could go early in the 3rd day. This is a deep group that will supply many NFL starters well into the 3rd day of the process. There could be at least 12 prospects selected in the top 100 choices. There will probably be 15+ prospects selected in the top 150 picks with the expected run-on corners from the mid-1st round through the early 3rd day. This class has very good depth and will provide a number of middle round steals. This position has annually provided the most overall selections and could duplicate that again. This group could supply as many as 35 total drafted prospects and another 40 high priority FA. This deep crop will supply a huge group of big corners with some versatility to also slide to safety in the nickel and dime sub packages.

NFL Teams in need:

1. Patriots      5 Rams
2. Saints          6 Commanders

Quarterbacks
Positional Overview:

This year’s QB class is an average group with the top two prospects expected to be selected in the top ten picks. Cam Ward is an outstanding looking prospect with accuracy, mobility, and a very high level of development. His complete skill set elevated him to the top of the class by far as the most NFL ready prospect. Shedeur Sanders is a fast-rising prospect after an amazing career at Colorado. He did not complete during the postseason when he sat out both the East-West and NFL Combine weeks. He was considered a guaranteed top ten selection, but that could be in jeopardy with a few clubs scared off by his lack of participation. He is clearly the biggest enigma in this draft class. Jaxson Dart has an excellent skill set and had impressive weeks at the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine. He could surprise and get selected in the mid-1st round. Kyle McCord is a rising prospect off an excellent 2024 performance and postseason. He flashed blue-chip talent with a strong arm and good mechanics. He is one of the fastest rising prospects in this draft class and could move into the early rounds with the pressing need at the position. Tyler Shough is a hot prospect off his fine Senior Bowl and NFL Combine. He shows a very strong arm with good footwork along with fine leadership and playmaking talent. Veterans, Jalen Milroe. Quinn Ewers and Will Howard have won a lot of games and titles over their careers. All have strong arms and running skills with the fast decision making and delivery to make consistently sound plays. Riley Leonard looked sharp at the Senior Bowl which impressed many scouts. He has shown fast development at the position and is a long-term gem. Seth Henigan and Kurtis Rouke are sleepers and can surprise if they land in the right coach/system. Both have had fine success and shown NFL talent with development. They could be major surprises in the right setting. Good group at top with 10-12 prospects chosen over the 3-day event. Expect 8-9 prospects chosen in the top 100 selections.

Quarterbacks

  1 Cam Ward #1 – Miami               6-2, 220 – Sp. 4.60         Rating 90
                        NFL Comparison: Jordan Love

Gifted athletic four-year starter at three schools excelled in his only season with the Hurricanes. Earned first team ACC honors in 2024 after an excellent two-year career at Washington State. Quality athlete with strong arm, quick feet and good mechanics to make all the throws.  Developed well in the Washington State advanced passing game designed originally by former HC Mike Leach which accelerated his development tremendously after starting Incarnate Word and putting up elite statistics from his first season. Shows a quick setup with the ability to retreat well and set his feet while scanning the field. Moves well in the pocket under pressure with the ability to slide and create passing lanes. He has developed into a special passer whose arm strength, mobility, vision and accuracy allows him to make all the throws from a variety of platforms. Won Offensive Player of the Year in the ACC, throwing for over 4300 yards 39 TDs and 7 picks. Savvy leader with excellent vision and mobility to move in the pocket. Top arm talent with good power, a very quick tight release, fine accuracy and capable of throwing from the pocket or on the move. Very good mobility to escape the pocket and maybe more dangerous outside, throwing when improvising. His production improved annually despite the changing supporting cast. Matured well learning to deal with adversity and maintain his poise and lead the team. Good size (just under 6’2”) and frame (219) and reliable durability to be available weekly. Tough in the face of pressure to make the difficult throw. Highly probable 1st QB and overall pick who excels on big stage with few mistakes and top results. At his pro day, he put on a display of throwing, movement and versatility. He displayed a strong arm with a compact delivery and quick release. Dropped the ball in the bucket on the deep ball and showed power and accuracy on the intermediate throws. Good movement in the pocket and made fast adjustments on the move. Clear #1 overall QB in this class. If he was in last year’s draft class, he would be #5 or 6 at best. With the top three teams this year all seeking a starting QB, he will hear his name called early. Titans looking to get a contract signed prior to the NFL Draft. Excellent RPO passer with ceiling and early quality starter. Expected #1 pick.

Colorado stars Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders are set to headline the Big 12 Pro Day at   The Star in Frisco, Texas. Big 12 Conference will partner with the NFL for the second annual event. The NFL Network will provide coverage of Pro Day from the Dallas Cowboys’ global headquarters as Big 12 football athletes begin the next chapters of their careers in front of NFL franchises inside Ford Center at The Star.

Big 12 athletes scheduled to attend this year’s Pro Day include Colorado’s Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter and QB Shedeur Sanders, the Arizona tandem of Tetairoa McMillan and Jonah Savaiinaea, as well as star wideouts including Colorado’s Jimmy Horn Jr. and Jack Bech and Savion Williams from TCU, among others.

The running back class will be represented by names such as Arizona State’s Cam Skattebo, UCF’s RJ Harvey, Cincinnati’s Corey Kiner, KU’s Devin Neal, DJ Giddens from Kansas State, Ollie Gordon II from Oklahoma State and Tahj Brooks from Texas Tech.

A complete list of the 200+ participants and final workout schedules will be announced at a later date.

Last year was the first-ever Big 12 Pro Day, which saw over 130 Big 12 student-athletes participate in front of NFL scouts and executives. Among those participants was former West Virginia and current Pittsburgh Steelers offensive lineman Zach Frazier.

NFL Network will bring its talent and production teams to Frisco for live broadcasts with analysis of the event from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. CT on March 19 and 20. The Big 12 Pro Day coverage will also be featured within additional NFL Network programming.

Important 2025 NFL Offseason Dates

Frank Coyle/ Don Hope
www.draftinsiders.com

While the 2025 league year does not technically begin until March 12th, there are many key calendar dates that are part of the NFL offseason process. The following are the key dates on the league calendar between now and week 1 of the NFL season.

February 10th – As of the Monday after the Super Bowl, teams are allowed to start releasing players without any repercussion on the 2024 Salary Cap. All veteran players with more than four (4) accrued seasons are immediately free agents and not subject to waivers. All non-vested veterans (i.e. less than four (4) accrued seasons) are subject to waivers. If they clear waivers, they immediately become free agents and are free to sign a contract at any time (even if before March 12th).

With the new league year set to commence on March 12th, teams generally start making salary cap moves in late February and early March.

February 24th – March 3rd – NFL Draft Combine

Early March – The date that the NFL has announced the list of Compensatory Draft picks has varied over the years from the Friday of the NFL Combine to more recently, just before the new league year (March 10th in 2020 and 2021; March 15th in 2022; March 9th in 2023; March 11th in 2024). Each year 32 additional Compensatory selections are distributed to teams who lose more Free Agents than they sign. Additionally, teams are compensated for losing minority coaches or personnel men the prior season.

February 18th – March 4th – As of February 18th, teams can begin designating pending Unrestricted Free Agents (UFAs) with the Franchise or Transition Tag. If a team wants to use either Tag, they must do so by 4:00 pm on Tuesday, March 4th.

March 10th – The “legal tampering” window opens. At Noon on March 10th, teams and pending UFAs can start discussing contract offers and terms with potential free agents, though a contract cannot be agreed upon until March 12th.

March 12th – At 4:00 pm on Wednesday, March 12th, the 2025 NFL League year begins:

Teams must have submitted tender offers to all of their Restricted Free Agents (RFAs) and Exclusive Rights Free Agents (ERFAs) who they want to retain.
Teams must exercise all 2025 contract options tied to the first day of the league year.
Free agency begins for Unrestricted Free Agents (UFAs) and Restricted Free Agents (RFAs)
The trading period begins. Any trades agreed to before this date can now be officially consummated.
All teams must be under the Salary Cap and the Rule of 51 Cap computation begins.

The 2025 Salary Cap has yet to be officially announced, but most reports are expecting it to be in the $270-275M range.  This number will obviously change between now and March 12th as teams  make other moves – RFA/ERFA tenders, signing, re-signings, restructures and/or contract extensions – aimed at creating additional Cap space.

April 18th – The deadline for teams to sign RFAs to an offer sheet. If another team signs a RFA to an offer sheet, the player’s present team has five (5) days to match that offer or potentially (depending on the tender given to the player) receive draft pick compensation if they decline to match. With the draft starting on April 24th, the deadline to sign a player to an offer sheet and allow for the required 5-day match period is April 23rd.

April 24th-26th – The NFL Draft 2025 – Green Bay, Wisconsin

May 1st – May 1st is the CBA-mandated date (Monday after the NFL draft) by which 5th Year Options must be exercised for 4th year players who were drafted in the 1st round.

May 1st – The “May 1st Tender” date. This date, which was moved forward from June 1st a couple of years ago, is essentially the last date that the signing or losing of a free agent will count toward the Compensatory Draft pick calculation. The May 1st Tender is also a way a team can potentially obtain exclusive negotiating rights with a player later in the summer (after July 22nd). It also provides extended Comp pick eligibility if the player is tendered a contract of at least 110% of his prior year’s compensation by May 1st. Otherwise, if the player is not given the Tender, he no longer counts toward the Comp pick formula and the team does not gain any special negotiating advantage later in the off season.
