2025 nfl mock draft bears take swing in final first round projections

The 2025 NFL draft is just days away, where teams are finalizing their draft boards before things kick off in Green Bay on April 24. There are plenty of storylines to monitor heading into the first round, including how the Top 10 unfolds behind the Tennessee Titans (who are expected to select quarterback Cam Ward at first overall), how... We're unveiling our final NFL Wires mock draft of the 2025 offseason. Our editors made player selections for all 32 picks in the first round. Here are the results. There are only two scenarios facing the Titans at No.

1 overall: Select Miami quarterback Cam Ward or trade down. Although Tennessee remains open to such a trade, it’s becoming increasingly less likely. Ward will be the pick when things kick off in Green Bay and then the true madness of the NFL draft will begin. – Dan Benton, Titans Wire The stars are aligning for the Browns to land the best player in the draft. With Cam Ward going first overall to the Titans, the Browns keep it simple here and take the blue-chip player, Travis Hunter, rather than trying to force the pick on a quarterback despite their...

Their offense gets a dynamic playmaker, and their defense gets an elite lockdown corner who will come on the field in obvious passing situations. This is the best-case scenario. –Cory Kinnan, Browns Wire With the NFL Draft kicking off tonight, here's a final compilation of what local and national reporters are predicting the Bears will do with the No. 10 pick: Brad Biggs, Chicago Tribune Pick: Georgia edge rusher Mykel Williams Comment: If Cam Ward is the only quarterback selected in the first nine picks and the Bears can't get one of the elite prospects...

If no suitable move is available, they can use the pick on Michigan tight end Colston Loveland, take the first true cornerback off the board, roll the dice on an imperfect left tackle prospect... Williams is a high-ceiling prospect who can bring juice to the pass rush. Bucky Brooks, NFL.com Pick: Texas offensive tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. Comment: New head coach Ben Johnson's experience with a dominant line while running the offense for division-rival Detroit could prompt him to add more resources to the Bears' front, even after it was fortified... Banks is a natural left tackle with the athleticism and shadowboxing skills to protect Caleb Williams' blind side. Dane Brugler, The Athletic Pick: Penn State tight end Tyler Warren Comment: This is a pairing that grew on me the more and more I considered it.

Ben Johnson runs a decent amount of "12" personnel, which would get both Warren and Cole Kmet on the field. Warren can be for Chicago what Sam LaPorta was to Detroit the last two seasons. Walter Cherepinsky, Walter Football Pick: Penn State tight end Tyler Warren Comment: The Bears have Cole Kmet, so this selection could be confusing until you consider that they lost Keenan Allen and didn't replace... With Allen gone, the Bears could draft an elite tight end and go to a two-tight end set. Soon enough, the 2025 NFL Draft will begin. The newest crop of hopeful stars will officially make the jump from college to the professional level.

We'll know where Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders will ultimately land. Just how much teams truly value Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty will finally be revealed. How far will Arizona WR Tetairoa McMillan fall? Is Will Campbell really the first offensive lineman off the board? All of this will be answered soon enough — but let's try and predict it before it happens with one final 2025 NFL mock draft. One of the strangest things about this year's NFL Draft is the simple fact that it feels like we know so little at this point.

There has undoubtedly been a steady barrage of rumors and buzz for weeks but, in terms of the things you can truly feel confident in, there isn't much. That makes the draft itself exciting but it makes an NFL mock draft a bit more difficult. What we have to do in that case is take the rumors, reports and buzz that we've heard, weigh how real we think that is, then use a bit of common sense and predictive... Easy enough, right? Let's do it, then. It's a full first-round prediction for the 2025 NFL Draft.

Of all the things it's hard to feel confident in, this doesn't fall in that category. The Titans are taking Cam Ward first overall and they shouldn't think twice about it. Ward might have fallen in the bottom-half of last year's quarterback class but his combination of floor and upside with his improvisation, mobility and arm make him the tops in this class. Will Levis has proven unviable in Tennessee, so it's time to hand the keys to the former Miami signal-caller. I'm not buying the buzz of the Browns trading down. Could they take a quarterback early in Round 2?

Absolutely, but I think that's where Cleveland's trade investment lies. General manager Andrew Berry has stated he feels confident in allowing Travis Hunter to play both ways at wide receiver and cornerback, and I'm starting to convince myself of the same. The Heisman winner is a freak athlete with unlimited potential on either side of the ball with his traits, football IQ and the possibility for refinement. The 2025 NFL Draft is shaping up to be one of the more unpredictable drafts in recent memory. Outside of blue-chip prospects like Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter, many players carry similar draft grades—creating the potential for surprise picks throughout the first round. In my final mock of the year, I take a swing at projecting some of those unexpected moves.

Among the biggest surprises: the Chicago Bears make a bold move up the board to secure an elite defensive talent, three quarterbacks come off the board in the top ten, and the first tight... One of the safest predictions in the 2025 NFL Draft is the Titans selecting Miami quarterback Cam Ward with the No. 1 overall pick. With no viable starting quarterback currently on the roster, Tennessee is in desperate need of a franchise signal-caller, and Ward—widely viewed as the top quarterback in this class—fits the bill perfectly. The Browns make a smart, high-upside move by selecting Colorado’s Travis Hunter, a dynamic two-way player who will primarily line up at wide receiver in Cleveland, according to GM Andrew Berry. With limited weapons beyond Jerry Jeudy, Hunter would immediately upgrade the pass-catching group and give the Browns' future quarterback—whether drafted in the second round this year or in 2026—a true playmaker to build around.

With fewer holes to fill after addressing the offensive line in free agency, the Bears package picks 10, 39, and 41 to trade up with the Giants and select Penn State edge rusher Abdul... 3 overall. One of the rare blue-chip talents in the 2025 class, Carter would provide Chicago with the dominant pass rusher they’ve been missing and elevate their defense. This, Bears Nation, is my final top-to-bottom 2025 first-round mock draft. I know, I know, that’s difficult to hear—my 32-pick mocks are a tasty treat, beloved by football fanatics all around the world—but on the plus side, no more full-blown prognostications means there’s finally an... Anyhoo, enough of my yakking.

Let’s get mocking. Fait accompli. The Titans need a signal caller, and Ward is the best one available…or at least the safest one available. After two years of the failed Will Levis Experiment, first-year head coach Brian Callahan could use a bit of comfiness. The 2025 NFL draft is finally here! The Tennessee Titans will kick things off on Thursday night in Green Bay, Wisconsin, before the rest of the league locks in on improving their rosters.

This draft is loaded with talent, but most of it may require some development once they turn pro. Each scouting department will determine which players are worth taking the risk on. Will teams prioritize the trenches? Are skilled positions on offense going to dominate the headlines? Will any big trades take place? With the draft just hours away, here’s our final 2025 NFL mock draft before the Titans are officially on the clock.

There’s no surprise with this one. The Titans select the man they hope is their future franchise quarterback in Cam Ward at first overall.
