Past Mock Draft Consensus
10.0 | 9.0 | 8.0 | 7.0 | 6.0 | 5.0 | 4.0 | 3.0 | 2.0 | 1.0

More than two months after the first canvassing of mock drafts, further clarity on the 2025 NFL Draft should be achieved this week when top prospects are poked, prodded, measured, tested and interviewed at the annual NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.

The mock drafting community dropped new first-round forecasts before workouts begin at Lucas Oil Stadium. So we couldn't resist taking one more glance at the latest projections.

Consensuses for the first six selections haven't changed.

The majority of mock drafters have Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter going No. 1 to the Tennessee Titans, followed by Miami quarterback Cam Ward (No. 2 to the Cleveland Browns) and Colorado cornerback/wide receiver Travis Hunter (No. 3 to the New York Giants). The new wrinkle is Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders joining Hunter as the most popular forecast for the Giants' third overall pick.

By the way, it is not a typo that Georgia edge rusher Jalon Walker appears for the Carolina Panthers at No. 8 and the New Orleans Saints at No. 9. Walker is indeed the consensus pick for both pass-rush deficient teams.

Unfortunately, uncertainty remains in the lower half of the first round. Last week, three teams lacked a consensus selection. This week, six clubs received varied forecasts. Their most popular mock-drafted positions are listed.
