On the surface, Kaliakmanis seems like an odd fit as a potential backup to Jayden Daniels but Kaliakmanis has the profile of a long-term NFL back-up QB with the size (6025 / 212 lbs), arm strength, and experience desired. Kaliakmanis has had a long and rocky career in the Big Ten at Minnesota and Rutgers and will be given an opportunity to earn a job as the third QB in DC this fall.

And to be honest, Green needs significant development. Green needs to develop better upper and lower body coordination and step into his throws. Mostly throws fastballs and needs to improve his touch. Sporadic accuracy tied to poor mechanics – when mechanics are in order, he looks like an NFL QB. Excellent athlete with speed, elusiveness, and power in the open field – must be accounted for or he can hurt you with his running. Very good running instincts.

Durant is an undersized (6010 / 290 lbs) but exceedingly quick and twitchy IDL who is stronger against the run than his body would seem to indicate. But Durant excels as an interior pass rusher and will team with Ed Oliver in giving the Bills one of the more potentially dangerous set of interior pass rushers in the NFL. Great pick to wrap up the fifth-round.

The Chiefs have two first-round picks - number nine and number 29 (acquired from the Rams in the Trent McDuffie trade) - and several major needs that have to be addressed. A new ORT is needed after the departure of Jawaan Taylor and the overall aging and degradation of the unit over the last few seasons. And after trading McDuffie, there is a need for a starting-caliber CB to step into the mix.

The Browns have two first round picks - number six and number 24 - and have glaring needs at WR and OT, two of the deepest positions in the draft with multiple prospects who have earned first round grades. Let's analyze where the Browns are likely headed with this year's draft and four prospects that are candidates for Cleveland's two first-round picks.

Nature abhors a vacuum and so in consistency with that thought comes the SNS Comprehensive Draft Eligibility (CET) Database!

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.

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
