Past Mock Draft Consensus
8.0 | 7.0 | 6.0 | 5.0 | 4.0 | 3.0 | 2.0 | 1.0
Travis Hunter is undoubtedly one of the top talents of the 2025 NFL Draft class. He easily could go No. 1 overall to the Tennessee Titans and, in the latest canvassing of post-Super Bowl mock drafts, the Heisman Trophy winner is forecasted to not last past the New England Patriots at No. 4.
What the mock drafting community suddenly can't determine is the most likely landing spot for the two-way star from Colorado. He is the second most popular projection for the Titans (behind Miami quarterback Cam Ward) and the Cleveland Browns (behind Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter).

The good news is that — for the first time in this draft cycle — the NFL Mock Draft Consensus features forecasts for all 32 teams in the first round.
With the draft order finally set (the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl win moved them to No. 32), mock drafters began to have some fun predicting their favorite trades. The most interesting proposed deal had Cleveland sending unhappy star defensive end Myles Garrett to Chicago for a swap of this year's first-rounders and the Bears' 2026 first-rounder.
Not surprisingly, the Eagles are expected to stick to their championship blueprint by drafting another edge rusher, while the Kansas City Chiefs, who were bludgeoned by Philly's defensive line all game in its 40-22 blowout victory, are projected to upgrade their offensive line with the 31st pick.
Quite a few players were consensus selections for multiple teams.
Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders is listed for both the New York Giants at No. 3 and the Las Vegas Raiders at No. 6, and LSU tackle Will Campbell is the top choice for New England at No. 4 and Chicago at No. 10.
Also noteworthy: Michigan tight end Colston Loveland has two destinations in the AFC West — Denver Broncos at No. 20 and Los Angeles Chargers at No. 22 — and Georgia edge rusher Mykel Williams has projections for the New Orleans Saints at No. 10 and the Green Bay Packers at No. 23.
