The NFL Draft is officially less than a month away, meaning that Mock Draft season is in full swing. At The Two-Point Conversion, we’re committed to bringing you quality draft coverage all month.
A few things before we get into this Mock Draft:
1. This is based on what is projected to happen, rather than our expert rankings.
2. Our draft team is set to release a full draft guide early this month – so please stay tuned for that.
3. We are excited to announce a live draft show coming on the first day of the 2025 NFL Draft. We’ll be streaming live on Twitter and YouTube, so be sure to follow The Two-Point Conversion on those platforms to tune in.
Let’s get into it:
1. Tennessee Titans – Cam Ward, QB, Miami
It looks as though Cam Ward is on his way to Nashville, as things stand now. Perhaps one of Abdul Carter or Travis Hunter is still in play – but the Titans signing Dan Moore and Kevin Zeitler indicate they are looking to protect a young quarterback.
2. Cleveland Browns – Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
The Browns don’t have an answer at quarterback despite spending three first-round picks and $250M on he-who-shall-not-be-named. Travis Hunter would be really tough to pass up – but so long as the Browns don’t sign another veteran, it’s hard to see them not taking a QB at 2.
3. New York Giants – Travis Hunter, WR/DB, Colorado
Travis Hunter is the best overall player in this draft. Yes, the Giants miss out on a quarterback, but this would be the best long-term pick for New York, even if Sanders was still available.
4. New England Patriots – Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State
The Patriots spent a ton of money on their defense this free agency, but they simply cannot reach on a tackle if Carter is available.
5. Jacksonville Jaguars – Mason Graham, DL, Michigan
Jaguars General Manager, James Gladstone, indicated they would be selecting a defensive lineman early in the NFL Draft, and Graham fits the type of DL that the Rams targeted when he was a part of that staff.
6. Las Vegas Raiders – Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State
Jeanty is arguably the best offensive player in this draft class. Pete Carroll loves to fortify the running game, and the Raiders desperately need RB help.
7. New York Jets – Armand Membou, OT, Missouri
While this could be a trade-back candidate depending on the offensive lineman available, the Jets still need help up front after Morgan Moses left in free agency. Membou is the best tackle in this class, and slots in right across from 2024 first-round pick Olu Fashanu.
8. Carolina Panthers – Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia
Mykel Williams has all of the potential in the world. He was hurt during 2024 and didn’t quite play a role conducive to racking up pass-rushing stats, but he has the floor of being an elite run defender and fits as an EDGE in Ejiro Evero’s scheme.
9. New Orleans Saints – Kenneth Grant, DL, Michigan
The Saints desperately need help in the interior of their defensive line. Kenneth Grant is a space-eating nose tackle who can play on three downs. That’s a rare skill set – and an investment that New Orleans really needs.
10. Chicago Bears – Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina
Omarion Hampton will go earlier than people expect. He perfectly fits Ben Johnson’s offense and should immediately have Pro Bowl type of contributions.

11. San Francisco 49ers – Will Campbell, OT, LSU
Will Campbell falling into Kyle Shanahan’s lap might be the best fit in this entire first round. He can start at right tackle or left guard and slide over to left tackle once Trent Williams retires.
12. Dallas Cowboys – Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
The Cowboys need front-seven help, and Campbell is someone that should contribute right away.
13. Miami Dolphins – Kelvin Banks, OT, Texas
Banks is another offensive lineman fit that projects to Mike McDaniel’s offensive system very well. Terron Armstead looks to be retiring, and the Dolphins haven’t invested in the offensive line in a major way (in terms of draft capital) since selecting Austin Jackson several years ago.
14. Indianapolis Colts – Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
Warren should be a weapon in both the run and passing game for the Colts – who have needed better tight end play for the better part of a decade now.
15. Atlanta Falcons – Mike Green, EDGE, Marshall
The Falcons will likely trade down on draft night with very limited draft capital, but Green is a juiced-up edge rusher who should provide immediate production.
16. Arizona Cardinals – Jahdae Barron, DB, Texas
Barron is a versatile DB who can contribute to a team that has a very creative defensive play caller.
17. Cincinnati Bengals – Jalon Walker, EDGE, Georgia
Jalon Walker can do a lot of different things well, and the Bengals need, well… a lot of different things. New defensive coordinator Al Golden is a former linebackers coach who should get the most of Walker.
18. Seattle Seahawks – Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan
One of the more fun fits in this draft is Loveland to the Seahawks. Seattle continues to build around Darnold, who now has Kupp, Smith-Njigba, and Loveland.
19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Will Johnson, DB, Michigan
Todd Bowles hasn’t invested in the defensive back room in quite a while. Johnson would be by far the best talent they’ve drafted into their secondary in years.
20. Denver Broncos – TreVeyon Henderson, RB, Ohio State
Henderson may not work for all teams in the first round, but he would be an extremely fun fit in a Sean Payton offense.
21. Pittsburgh Steelers – Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State
George Pickens is someone who may be on the trade block following the team’s acquisition of DK Metcalf. Egbuka provides a different skill set to a team that may be adding Aaron Rodgers in the near future.
22. Los Angeles Chargers – Gray Zabel, IOL, North Dakota State
Jim Harbaugh will forever invest in the trenches. Zabel is the best interior lineman available with this pick.
23. Green Bay Packers – Shemar Stewart, EDGE, Texas A&M
Many Packers fans may scoff at the idea of another raw defensive end – but Stewart has traits that can’t be denied – especially by Brian Gutekunst.
24. Minnesota Vikings – Malaki Starks, DB, Georgia
Defensive coordinator Brian Flores loves versatile chess-piece-type players – and Starks has his fans. This would be a slam-dunk pick for the Vikings, who continue to add defensive playmakers this offseason.
25. Houston Texans – Derrick Harmon, DL, Oregon
The Texans have a huge need on their offensive line this offseason after trading away Laremy Tunsil. But they still need to add a run-stuffing defensive lineman. Harmon is as good as you can do in the late first round this year.
26. Los Angeles Rams – Mason Taylor, TE, LSU
Mason Taylor is a player who could go much earlier than expected. It may not be this early, but I’d expect the Rams to be interested if they move back from pick 26.
27. Baltimore Ravens – Kevin Winston, DB, Penn State
Another player who could go earlier than expected is Nittany Lions DB Kevin Winston, who reportedly ran a 4.5-second 40-yard dash just six months after ACL surgery.
28. Detroit Lions – Tet McMillan, WR, Arizona
Tet McMillan is such an interesting prospect – he has his fans in the media, but the NFL does seem to be lower on him. Under the right circumstances – I wonder what the odds are that he could fall this far. Regardless, the Lions pick up a new X-WR after being reportedly interested in Xavier Legette in last year’s draft.
29. Washington Commanders – Nick Emmanwori, DB, South Carolina
The Commanders need to add pieces to their secondary, and Emmanwori should be a supercharged version of what safety Jeremy Chinn gave them last year.
30. Buffalo Bills – Matthew Golden, WR, Texas
Matthew Golden could go as high as pick 12 to the Dallas Cowboys. Here, he falls a little bit but lands on a team in which he should see immediate playing time as a field stretcher.
31. Kansas City Chiefs – Walter Nolen, DL, Mississippi
The Chiefs lost Turk Wharton to the Panthers in free agency, and Chris Jones is only getting older. Nolen is much more talented than the 31st pick.
32. Philadelphia Eagles – TJ Sanders, DL, South Carolina
The Eagles relied on Milton Williams generating interior pressure last season. Even if they had players behind Williams that could step into such a role, Sanders would be another piece for a team willing to spend endless resources on their defensive line.
