final 2025 nfl mock draft full 1st round with trades bears move up

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. Welcome to my final mock draft of the 2025 NFL Draft cycle, where I spew incorrect takes throughout the first round that will kick off from Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Thursday night.

Well, they won't all be wrong. The first three picks (and maybe even the Patriots' selection at No. 4) seem to be set with Cam Ward going to the Titans, Travis Hunter ending up with the Browns, Abdul Carter landing with the Giants and Will Campbell off to New England. But from when the Jaguars are on the clock at No. 5 to when the Eagles close out Round 1 at No. 32?

Who the hell knows. In my attempt at predicting the unpredictable, I have the Bears trading up to the fifth pick for Ashton Jeanty and the Jaguars moving back to 10th to snag Tetairoa McMillan. The Rams and Bills also trade up -- one for a tight end, the other for a cornerback -- while the Giants jump back into the first round, but not for Shedeur Sanders. And to close things out, Philadelphia gets yet another playmaker in an offense full of them. We'll know soon enough who your favorite team selects in Round 1, but for now, sit back, relax, and take a gander at who your franchise will almost certainly not take (aside from the...

You can find "With the First Pick" wherever you get your podcasts: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, etc. Listen below! 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 Alright.

We’re finally here. The 2025 NFL Draft kicks off tonight at 8:00 p.m. ET from Green Bay, Wisconsin. This is my final mock draft of the 2025 cycle. In this one, I’ll attempt to be as predictive as possible, given the latest reports, and trying to sort through the noise. Lock it in.

The Titans get their (hopeful) quarterback of the future. Despite getting calls to trade out of this pick, the Browns stand pat and take arguably the best player in the draft. While Abdul Carter isn’t necessarily a “need,” he’s too good to pass on. Kayvon Thibodeaux could be upset about this, but that’s something worth dealing with. This would give the Giants a ferocious pass rush. Andrew Lalama provides his final 2025 NFL mock draft with trades before the NFL Draft begins on April 24.

Full one-round predictions for the top NFL rookie prospects The NFL Draft is my favorite day of the year, and the picks made tomorrow night will have an enormous impact on the future of the NFL. The top three picks appear to be locked in, but the rest of the top ten is up in the air. This mock draft aims to predict each pick in an attempt to be as accurate as possible. Last year, my final mock draft was the 6th-most accurate in TheHuddleReport's annual contest. Hopefully, we can finish in the top five in 2025.

1) Tennessee Titans – Cam Ward, QB, Miami The Titans appear locked in on Cam Ward to be their next franchise quarterback. After a deep dive into his film, Ward has all the traits you want in a modern pro QB. The Titans need to get him more weapons on day two.
