2025 NFL Mock Draft: First round predictions and picks for all 32 teams

3 hours ago 1

A Mock Draft with a twist; 32 of them to be clear.

The sports bettors’ NFL Mock Draft returns in 2025 with 32 betting picks to enjoy over the course of a long first round.

Why not watch on Thursday and have money riding on literally every pick?

In the sports bettor’s mock draft, we’re not giving analysis or projections. I am not a talent evaluator.

Sure, there could be some spots where I believe in a player more than others, but that doesn’t mean we’re going by gut feel.

Instead, you’re essentially looking at a compilation of mocks from the top prognosticators in the business, such as Peter Schrager, Daniel Jeremiah, Mel Kiper Jr., Charlie Campbell (aka Walter Football), and more, as we attempt to slice through the disinformation game in the NFL Draft.

It’ll be two-plus hours of chaos starting on Thursday at 8 p.m. Eastern, where hopeful draftees will hear their names called and their dreams of playing in the NFL come true.

The Tennessee Titans are now on the clock.

Cam Ward (-10000, Fanatics)

It’s a poorly kept secret that the Titans will draft Cam Ward at No. 1 overall, and the odds reflect that.

Looking to snag some rewards points from your sportsbook? Many typically give a rakeback of 1 to 3 percent. This is your time to shine.

A $1,000 bet nets you just $10, although you could boost that to another $10 on Fanatics Sportsbook with their rewards points.

If you have the means, by all means, go ahead and take your shots further down the board.

Colts select a tight end (+100, DraftKings) | Rams select a tight end (+550, FanDuel)

Two tight ends are worthy of a first-round pick; Tyler Warren or Colston Loveland are excellent options to be selected by these two squads.

The Rams had famously tried to trade up for Brock Bowers, and multiple reports indicate they will try to do so again while sitting at No. 26.

With Warren and Colston within range, it’s best to wager on these two teams to snag a tight end, rather than pick the individual player.

The Colts have had Mo-Allie Cox as their tight end far too long, it’s time for a difference maker from the tight end position.

These two tight ends are going to be highly coveted, and I suspect trades will need to be executed for either team to acquire them.

Take the long shot on the aggressive Rams, with the Colts acting as a floor of sorts for the best available tight end.

Sanders draft slot over 10.5 (-380, Bet365)

This is priced as a lock, and it really seems like it is.

Shedeur Sanders teased being drafted by the Steelers on Thursday, with No. 21 in the draft looking a lot like his floor this year.

Previously, the Giants were interested, and then the Saints, but neither feels like a spot according to most reports.

Russini added that the Giants and Saints won’t pick a quarterback in the top 10, but could trade back up into the first round to get him if he’s hanging around later.

No elite mock drafters have Sanders in the top 10 at this time, so this would require some major surprises as we go to draft day.

How much you like Jaxson Dart has a lot to do with this bet.

The Giants are sitting at No. 34 in the second round, and it makes a ton of sense that the Giants would attempt to trade back into the first round and draft a quarterback.

Schrager has the Giants trading with the Rams to select Dart later in the draft, which is surely possible if Los Angeles can’t make a move up to get a tight end.

That extra year of control of a potential franchise quarterback is that much more valuable for prospective teams.
