NFL Spin Zone

The 2024 NFL season continues to roll along and while the playoffs are still within reach for a lot of teams, the focus is slowly (but surely) shifting to the 2025 NFL Draft. And the 2025 NFL Draft class is going to be interesting in the way it’s perceived by NFL teams. There are a lot of players generating hype right now, but are there enough? Every NFL team currently owns its own 1st-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft and there are only a couple of teams that have traded away their 2nd-round picks, but this class is not projected to be the “deepest” we’ve seen in recent years. NIL has a lot to do with that as players have less incentive to leave school early unless their draft stock is where they want it. They can make more on NIL contracts than they can on an NFL contract. Perhaps that’s something the NFL will revisit at some point to try and load up these classes again. For now, there remains plenty of quarterback intrigue with a handful of potential top 10 candidates and possibly another emerging 1st-round player out at LSU. We’re going to do our best to project the first two rounds in our latest 2025 NFL mock draft with fun twists and turns all over the board.
