1. Carolina Panthers - Will Campbell (OL)

It would be a troubling sign if the Carolina Panthers felt the need to replace Bryce Young at this point. However, we’re optimistic that Young will demonstrate enough potential this season to convince the Panthers to focus on bolstering their offensive line. Using the first overall pick to secure Will Campbell makes a lot of sense. 

2. New England Patriots - James Pearce Jr. (DL)

James Pearce Jr. from Tennessee has all the attributes of a top 3 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. With his robust build, Pearce Jr. would bring a vital dynamic element that the New England Patriots' defense currently lacks.

3. Denver Broncos - Mason Graham (DL)

The Denver Broncos have the opportunity to assemble another strong defense, but doing so hinges on making the right choices with their early draft picks during their rebuild. Mason Graham fits the profile of a standout candidate who could significantly enhance their defensive line.

4. New York Giants - Carson Beck (QB)

A strong argument can be made that Carson Beck is the most pro-ready quarterback in this draft class. Given the New York Giants' evident need at quarterback, selecting Beck would be a logical choice.

5. Tennessee Titans - Deone Walker (DT)

Deone Walker stands out as a likely top pick in this draft class. As the Tennessee Titans aim to bolster their young core, incorporating Walker would significantly enhance their team build. 

6. Washington Commanders - Will Johnson (DB)

While there are other contenders, we're confident that Will Johnson is the premier defensive back in this draft class. The Washington Commanders share this view and are quick to seize the chance to draft him.

7. Las Vegas Raiders - Shedeur Sanders (QB)

The Las Vegas Raiders have yet to find their future quarterback within their current roster. Despite some uncertainties around Shedeur Sanders, the Raiders should not overlook his significant potential upside.

8. New Orleans Saints - Travis Hunter (WR/CB)

It's uncertain what Travis Hunter will become at the next level in terms of position and ceiling. However, his talent is unmistakable, and the New Orleans Saints eagerly take the opportunity to draft him here.

9. Minnesota Vikings - Benjamin Morrison (CB)

Benjamin Morrison remains a formidable force at Notre Dame, proving himself as a significant threat in their secondary. With another strong season for the Fighting Irish, he’s likely to secure a spot in the top 10 range, where we anticipate Minnesota will be picking.

10. Arizona Cardinals - Kelvin Banks Jr. (OL)

To become a contender in the NFC, the Arizona Cardinals must bolster their offensive line. They take a step in the right direction by selecting the talented Kelvin Banks Jr., reinforcing their commitment to improving this crucial area.

11. Seattle Seahawks - Harold Perkins Jr. (LB)

Harold Perkins Jr. has the potential to be a top 10 pick in the upcoming draft. With such a strong class of prospects, some players will inevitably fall, which works out perfectly for the Seattle Seahawks in this scenario.

12. Indianapolis Colts - Luther Burden III (WR)

This draft class features several talented pass catchers expected to go in the high first round. Luther Burden III is among the top prospects, and he seems like a natural fit for the Indianapolis Colts.

13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Emery Jones Jr. (OL)

As the Tampa Bay Buccaneers make a big commitment to quarterback Baker Mayfield, it makes perfect sense to bolster his protection and enhance the run game by adding Emery Jones Jr.

14. Pittsburgh Steelers - Emeka Egbuka (WR)

If the Pittsburgh Steelers don't acquire a wide receiver through a trade this season, it would be wise to invest a high-value pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Emeka Egbuka would be an excellent choice in this range.

15. Jacksonville Jaguars - Jonah Savaiinaea (OL)

It's crucial for the Jacksonville Jaguars to keep strengthening their offensive line. Given their significant investment in Trevor Lawrence, adding a talent like Jonah Savaiinaea would be a smart move.

16. Los Angeles Chargers - Evan Stewart (WR)

After overhauling their wide receiver room last year, the Los Angeles Chargers are set to continue that with the addition of Evan Stewart. Despite this possibly not aligning with Jim Harbaugh's preferred asset allocation strategy, Stewart's talent is too exceptional to overlook.

17. Cleveland Browns - Mykel Williams (DL)

The Cleveland defense has a lot to admire, featuring a strong secondary, Myles Garrett, and now the addition of Mykel Williams from Georgia. The Browns continue playing to their strengths. 

18. Los Angeles Rams - Abdul Carter (LB)

While it's not ideal to say a team is looking for another version of a retired legendary player, the Rams do need help in that area. They address this by selecting Abdul Carter to strengthen their defense.

19. Chicago Bears - JT Tuimoloau (DE)

The Chicago Bears' young core can be further strengthened with another promising talent. JT Tuimoloau, a standout at Ohio State, will integrate seamlessly with the Bears.

20. Atlanta Falcons - Kenneth Grant (DL)

Kenneth Grant possesses multiple NFL-caliber traits from his time at Michigan. The Atlanta Falcons recognize his skills and view him as a great value pick in this range.

21. Miami Dolphins - Tyleik Williams (DT)

The Miami Dolphins could benefit from additional help on their defensive line. Tyleik Williams possesses many traits that make him an ideal fit for what the Dolphins need.

22. New York Jets - Tetairoa McMillan (WR)

With several quarterbacks still available, the New York Jets have the chance to make a funny selection given the circumstances. Instead of selecting a quarterback, they draft the talented wideout Tetairoa McMillan.

23. Green Bay Packers - Jabbar Muhammad (DB)

There are multiple directions the Green Bay Packers can take in this range of the draft. If a player with the talent level of Jabbar Muhammad is still on the board, there's a lot of traits he boasts that the Packers should covet. 

24. Houston Texans - Nic Scourton (LB)

With a standout season at Texas A&M, it wouldn't be shocking if Nic Scourton is off the board by this point. However, for now, the Houston Texans recognize his value and seize the opportunity to draft him here. 

25. Dallas Cowboys - Barrett Carter (LB)

It wouldn't be surprising to see the Dallas Cowboys bolster their linebacker corps in this range. Barrett Carter is a highly talented prospect who meets many of their needs.

26. Buffalo Bills - Tacario Davis (CB)

The Buffalo Bills could benefit from some young talent in their secondary, and Tacario Davis from Arizona perfectly fits the bill late in the first round. 

27. Philadelphia Eagles - Jack Sawyer (DE)

It's well-known that the Philadelphia Eagles have recently favored Georgia Bulldogs for their defense. This time, they choose a potential game-changer from Ohio State, Jack Sawyer.

28. Cincinnati Bengals - Isaiah Bond (WR)

With the potential departure of Tee Higgins in free agency next year, it won't be a surprise to see the Cincinnati Bengals land on another talented wideout here. Isaiah Bond fits the bill. 

29. Detroit Lions - Princely Umanmielen (DE)

There's been considerable buzz around Princely Umanmielen for some time. Despite his stock dipping slightly heading into his draft year, the Lions decide to take a chance on his potential.

30. Baltimore Ravens - Tyler Booker (OL)

It's still early in the process, but Tyler Booker and the Baltimore Ravens already seem like a perfect match. We wouldn't be surprised at all to see this transpire on draft night. 

31. San Francisco 49ers - Anthony Belton (OL)

The San Francisco 49ers' offensive line is aging. With a roster poised for potential changes, the 49ers decide to strengthen their foundation by drafting Anthony Belton to solidify the trenches.

The Kansas City Chiefs have several options at this point. They decide to bolster their offensive line by adding one of the top prospects in this class, Ajani Cornelius.
