NFL mock draft 2025: Titans take Carson Beck No. 1; Giants select Shedeur Sanders in top 10
Even before the 2023 college football season kicked off, there was a fairly clear pecking order among quarterback prospects.
Southern California’s Caleb Williams was the presumptive QB1 and likely first overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft and North Carolina’s Drake Maye was considered the most likely challenger to Williams.
There was one big riser from the QB class in LSU’s Jayden Daniels, who went from potential Day 2 selection to Heisman Trophy winner to No. 2 overall pick.
As we look toward the 2024 college football season and the 2025 NFL draft, the depth of the talent pool looks deep ( thanks, NIL ) and unlike this season there should be plenty of defensive players in the first round.
The quarterback pecking order is not so clear. Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders, Georgia’s Carson Beck and Texas’ Quinn Ewers enter the season with the most buzz.
