DRAFT NEWS

The Niners are trying to rebuild on the fly and decide to get a pass rushing partner for All-Pro Nick Bosa. Williams, a former 5-star has elite skills that he just started to tap last season in Athens. Williams has difficulty staying healthy but flashes superb burst and natural strength. The Niners believe his talent is too good to pass.

Coach Jim Harbaugh played for Bo Schembechler, who espoused running the football. The apple does not fall far from the tree. The Chargers select the big, fast, and strong Hampton, who can run between the tackles, run wide, and has reliable hands as receiver out of the backfield.

Chicago desperately needs to upgrade OLT but feel that there is no prospect worth selecting here. Surprisingly, Loveland gets selected before Tyler Warren but he fits what new coach Ben Johnson wants in a TE - a mismatch piece used over the middle to take advantage of safeties and LBs in coverage, much like Lions use TE Sam LaPorta.

Shedeur Sanders' free fall has officially started as the Saints decide to lock down OLT for the next decade with the Outland Trophy winner. Banks, SNS' #1 ranked OT and #3 prospect overall, is a well-rounded player with All Pro potential.

The Jags deal up to get the second pick in the draft. But the cost was steep - pick #5, a second round pick (#36), a fourth round pick (#126), and a 2026 first round pick for the second pick, a fourth rounder (#104), and a sixth round pick (#200). Jacksonville uses the second selection on Travis Hunter, the Heisman Trophy winner who will try to play offense and defense in the NFL. Hunter figures to start at WR and play situationally at CB as a rookie.

Booker and Ezeiruaku address team needs after the retirement of Zack Martin and the departure of DeMarcus Lawrence in free agency. Revel has excellent size and length and displayed quality ball skills in his last healthy season in 2023. Blue is an explosive RB that has been missing in Dallas for years. Mafah is a powerful inside runner who has had a heavy workload in college and is likely to have a short NFL career. James is a fast, rangy LB in the mode of DeMarvon Overshown.

The Bills pass defense was the albatross around the Bills' neck last year that the team could never overcome. Hairston, who led the SEC in interceptions in 2023, is both very fast (4.28 40) and exceedingly quick. Hairston will most likely play slot but has the size and experience to man the outside in upstate NY.

The 2025 NFL Draft has concluded but the process of acquiring additional talent to compete for roster spots never truly ends. After the draft, the more than 1,000 undrafted prospects that had entered the draft are still hoping to be signed to a free agent contract or at least receive a mini-camp invite. But only a couple of hundred of these undrafted prospects will get a call from an NFL team.

Saturday (Day 3) of the NFL Draft is where a team builds depth, selects their kickers and punters (and hey, even a long snapper!), and sometimes even finds a diamond in the rough.

Shedeur Sanders has fallen out of the first three rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft. How far will he wall down the draft board and how many other QBs go before him (McCord, Leonard, Howard)? Saturday's draft is drama packed!

The Seahawks traded picks #52 (second round) and #83 (third round) for the right to draft Emmanwori, a huge and physical ball hawk who tackles like a LB and catches the ball like a TE. He becomes a natural successor to the Kam Chancellor-era safeties of a decade or so ago in Seattle.

Night one of the 2025 NFL Draft concluded with the shocking (to some) fall out of the first round of Shedeur Sanders. The Colorado Buffaloes QB had an inconsistent post season where his interviews left many teams frustrated with his maturity level and his game film left many scouts scratching their heads. Sanders' processing is very slow and he typically waits for the receiver to break open before throwing the ball - and that just does not work at the NFL level. So, where doe

Draft Day is here! After evaluating hundreds of prospects over the last eight months, conducting mock drafts, ranking prospects, and assessing teams needs, all of this effort begins to payoff as the seven round, 257 pick draft kickoffs tonight at 8 ET from Green Bay, Wisconsin. Let’s take a look at what to expect this weekend as the NFL welcomes a new class of prospects into the ranks.

SNS presents the final mock draft in the run up to the 2025 NFL Draft, that kickoffs Thursday evening in Green Bay, Wisconsin. This mock takes a crack at predicting how the 32 teams use their 257 combined picks over three days and seven rounds. SNS utilized the Comprehensive Eligibility Tracking (CET) database, NFL Teams Needs reports, and the SNS Big Board 300 (ALL AVAILABLE HERE AT SNS!) to conduct this simulated draft.

The SNS 2025 BIG BOARD 300 is the final rankings of the best 300 draft-worthy prospects available in this weekend's draft, which will select 257 prospects in seven rounds over the three-day event.

SNS presents, for the fourth consecutive year, a deep dive analysis of the 2025 NFL Draft class to reveal prospects that are likely to be late Saturday draft picks or UDFAs (Undrafted Free Agents) who will sign with a team after the draft and have to earn their NFL job the hard way. Prospects identified in previous editions of Deep Dive include Zach Tom, starting guard for the Green Bay Packers, former Detroit Lions rookie phenom EDGE James Houston, Josh Newton, CB, Cincinnat
