Top 5 Picks of the NFL Draft 2025

A wild first round was just the beginning of an entertaining night at the NFL draft 2025. The Jacksonville Jaguars made a blockbuster move up three spots to select wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter and a number of other trades took place before the night was over.

The Texans addressed an urgent team need by grabbing this dynamic edge rusher, who can also play inside linebacker and safety. He flashed elite speed (sub-4.4 40-yard dash) and ball skills at the combine, and he should immediately help this defense.

This versatile defensive back has the tools to be a big-time starter in the NFL. He’s a physical tackling machine who can run through blocks, and his ball-swiping ability gives him the potential to be a dangerous return specialist.

He may not be the most polished player on this class’s interior, but he has the physical traits to succeed as an NFL starter. He has the quickness to evade tacklers and the strength to overpower them, which is a valuable combination for an interior lineman.

The Eagles grabbed this SEC star to bolster their defense. They need more pressure from their front seven after losing edge rushers Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham and linebacker Nakobe Dean to free agency. Campbell, a first-team All-SEC selection in 2024, can step in and help right away.
