2025 NFL Draft Live Tracker

Welcome to the 2025 NFL Draft Live Tracker, where we provide real-time updates and analysis on each first-round selection. As the draft unfolds, we'll compare the actual picks to the consensus projections, offering insights into team strategies and player fits. Here's the projected selection for each team based on expert mock drafts:

1). Tennessee Titans - Cam Ward, QB, Miami

Big Board Rank: 9th

Pick Analysis: Ward is an elite arm talent with plus athleticism, strong pocket mobility, and off-platform creativity. He thrives when attacking downfield and extending plays but struggles with mechanical inconsistency and decision-making under pressure. He has experience in multiple offensive systems, including Air Raid and pro-style concepts, which should help his transition. Ward fits best in an aggressive, vertical passing offense that lets him use his arm strength and mobility to create explosive plays while working to clean up his hero ball tendencies and turnover risk.

2). Jacksonville Jaguars – Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado

Big Board Rank: 3

Pick Analysis: Travis Hunter’s rare versatility as a true two-way player makes him one of the most dynamic athletes we’ve seen enter the NFL in decades. As a cornerback, he brings elite ball skills, sharp instincts, and the fluidity to mirror top-tier wideouts, particularly thriving in zone schemes. While his slight frame can pose challenges in press coverage, he compensates with excellent recovery speed and anticipation. On offense, Hunter is a vertical weapon with outstanding ball-tracking ability and YAC skills. For Jacksonville, he’s a matchup chess piece on both sides of the ball and a potential game-wrecker in the return game. Think Deion Sanders meets today’s hybrid NFL demands. A true culture-setter for a young Jaguars core.

3). New York Giants – Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State

Big Board Rank: 2

Pick Analysis: Abdul Carter is an explosive, dynamic, and twitchy edge defender with elite-level traits. He possesses rare first-step quickness, violent hands, and the ability to bend and flatten at the top of the arc, making him a terror off the edge in both 3-4 and 4-3 alignments. His transition from off-ball linebacker to EDGE has only expanded his value, as he can drop into coverage or close from depth. Carter projects as a Day 1 starter and scheme-diverse playmaker with Pro Bowl/All-Pro potential.

4). New England Patriots – Will Campbell, OT, LSU

Big Board Rank: 7

Pick Analysis: Will Campbell is an athletic and powerful tackle prospect with strong positional versatility, having excelled at left tackle for LSU but projecting effectively to guard or center due to his skill set. His excellent balance, anchor strength, and quick hands make him reliable in both run and pass protection. In the NFL, Campbell may be best suited on the interior to maximize his strengths, where his power and efficient technique can shine against interior defenders. Ideal for both zone and power schemes, Campbell offers immediate impact with the potential for Pro Bowl-level performance as a guard or tackle.

5). Cleveland Browns – Mason Graham, IDL, Michigan

Big Board Rank: 1

Pick Analysis: Graham is a dominant, explosive interior defensive lineman with elite leverage, block-shedding ability, and short-area quickness. His violent hands, motor, and pass-rush upside make him a top-tier prospect at the position. While lacking elite arm length, he wins with pad level, power, and technique. Best suited as a 3-tech in an attacking 4-3 scheme, though he has the versatility to play 1-tech or even 5-tech in a 3-4 front. He is NFL-ready from Day 1 and should be a disruptive force in both the run and pass game.

6). Las Vegas Raiders – Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State

Big Board Rank: 4

Pick Analysis: Jeanty is an elite-level, do-it-all back who combines vision, burst, contact balance, and underrated receiving chops in a compact, powerful frame. He thrives in zone-based schemes, particularly outside zone or pin-pull, where his ability to manipulate second-level defenders and explode through gaps shines. With rare elusiveness, generational contact balance, and a track record of dominant production, Jeanty projects as a Day 1 impact starter. The only concern is pass protection, but he offers too much in every other facet to keep off the field. His skill set profiles as a franchise back in a modern run-oriented offense.

7). New York Jets – Armand Membou, OT, Missouri

Big Board Rank: 20

Pick Analysis: Armand Membou is a highly athletic and powerful lineman with positional versatility to play right tackle or slide inside to guard at the NFL level. His elite body control, smooth footwork, and functional power allow him to be effective in both gap and zone-blocking schemes. While his lack of ideal height for an NFL tackle might push him inside, he has shown the ability to handle edge rushers with good foot quickness, hand timing, and balance. He plays with a mean streak and finishes blocks, but needs refinement in strike placement and anchor consistency to reach his full potential. Best suited as a right tackle in a zone-heavy scheme but could become an elite guard in power-based offenses.

8). Carolina Panthers – Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona

Big Board Rank: 16

Pick Analysis: Tetairoa McMillan is an enticing WR prospect who blends exceptional size and body control with the versatility to align at X, Z, or in the slot. At 6'5", McMillan combines a wide catch radius with a natural feel for leveraging his frame against defenders. While his speed is not elite, his smooth acceleration and hip fluidity enable him to separate and create mismatches. He is a strong fit for a vertically-oriented offensive scheme that can take full advantage of his downfield contested catch ability.

9). New Orleans Saints – Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas

Big Board Rank: 21

Pick Analysis: Kelvin Banks Jr. is an elite tackle prospect with smooth athleticism, refined hand technique, and versatile blocking skills that translate well to the NFL level. His lateral agility and strength make him an exceptional pass protector, and his fluidity as a run blocker fits well in both zone and gap schemes. With minimal technical improvements, Banks projects as an early high-impact starter with All-Pro potential at left tackle.

10). Chicago Bears – Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan

Big Board Rank: 10

Pick Analysis: Colston Loveland is a versatile, athletic tight end prospect with a high ceiling due to his size, catch radius, and ability to separate on short and deep routes. His strength lies in his unique blend of speed and physicality, giving him mismatch potential against linebackers and safeties alike. With further development in his blocking consistency and refinement in concentration during catches, Loveland projects as a versatile weapon in both traditional and spread formations. His athletic profile and basketball background make him a fit for offenses that value tight ends with vertical and horizontal stretch capabilities.

11). San Francisco 49ers – Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia

Big Board Rank: 23

Pick Analysis: Mykel Williams is an alignment-versatile edge rusher who has all the physical tools to develop into a premier player in the NFL. His ability to play various positions along the defensive front makes him a valuable asset in multiple schemes. Williams has been utilized as a stand-up edge rusher, head-up over the center in a 0-tech, and in other roles within Georgia’s complex defensive scheme. His best fit in the NFL would be as a 4-3 defensive end or a 3-4 outside linebacker, where his athleticism and versatility can be maximized.

12). Dallas Cowboys – Tyler Booker, OG, Alabama

Big Board Rank: 14

Pick Analysis: Tyler Booker is a physically imposing interior lineman with elite size, strength, and upper-body power, making him a high-end run blocker and a tone-setter on the offensive line. His powerful punch, strong anchor, and ability to displace defenders make him dominant in downhill run schemes. As a pass protector, Booker is a stout, square-bodied guard who anchors well against power rushers but can struggle against quick interior rushers and stunts due to limited lateral agility. He projects best as a day-one starting guard in a power/gap-heavy scheme that allows him to maximize his strength at the point of attack.

13). Miami Dolphins – Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan

Big Board Rank: 22

Pick Analysis: Grant is a massive, athletic defensive tackle with impressive quickness for his size and dominant run-stopping ability. His power and first-step quickness allow him to collapse the pocket, but his pass-rush plan and pad level need improvement. Best suited as a nose tackle in a 3-4 defense or a 1-tech in a 4-3, where he can clog lanes and generate interior disruption while refining his technique.

14). Indianapolis Colts – Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State

Big Board Rank: 11

Pick Analysis: Tyler Warren is a versatile tight end suitable for various offensive schemes. He excels as a blocker and is also a reliable receiving target, particularly in red-zone situations. His ability to line up in multiple positions, whether in-line, in the slot, or split wide, makes him a valuable asset. His combination of size, athleticism, and blocking prowess makes him ideal for teams that utilize tight ends extensively in both the run and pass game.
