This is a 2025 NFL Mock Draft with Senior Bowl players only. This is an annual feature made to showcase the players at the Senior Bowl.
Follow me @walterfootball for updates.
1. Tennessee Titans: Jaxson Dart, QB, Ole Miss 
There’s no Shedeur Sanders or Cam Ward in this mock draft because it’s for Senior Bowl players only. The best quarterback at the Senior Bowl was Jaxson Dart, who had some terrific practices.
Dart is instinctive and tough, but has some shaky pocket presence.

Also, if you haven’t visited the site in a while, you may have noticed the new look. Yes, after nearly two decades, we’ve finally re-designed our site to be more modern. This was not done on a whim, but rather out of necessity because of what occurred during the 2023 NFL Draft. Our site crashed during the entire first day of the draft, which was disastrous for our revenue stream because we make more money during the draft than any other time. The site crashed because a line of code conflicted with the old format of the site, so we had to transition to this new look.
Because we lost so much money during the draft, I want to point out that you can really help support the site by paying for the ad-free version of it. It’s $7.99 per month, but you’ll get a super-fast site with no ads. My developer will be adding new features to paid subscribers as well, so look for that in the near future. If you don’t want to pay, please spread the word about the site through word of mouth. That would also be a big help!
2. Cleveland Browns: Jalen Milroe, QB, Alabama 
Jalen Milroe hasn’t been very good in Senior Bowl practice, but there’s still enough upside for him to be considered at No. 2 overall in a mock draft with only Senior Bowl players. The Browns are desperate for a quarterback, after all.
Milroe is a dangerous runner who has a solid arm. He needs to improve his ability to read coverages.
3. New York Giants: Jonah Savaiinea, OT, Arizona 
There’s no quarterback for the Giants to take, and there’s no Travis Hunter in this Senior Bowl-only mock draft. Instead, New York can work on finally fixing its offensive line.
Jonah Savaiinea is a quick blocker with plus athleticism.
4. New England Patriots: Emery Jones, OT, LSU 
The Patriots arguably have the worst offensive line in the NFL, so there’s no doubt that they’re carefully scouting the tackles playing in the Senior Bowl.
Emery Jones is a talented tackle with a basketball background. He has impressive athleticism to play left tackle in the NFL.
5. Jacksonville Jaguars: Azareye’h Thomas, CB, Florida State 
The Jaguars lost out on the chance to land Travis Hunter with their win over the Titans. Perhaps they’ll still land a cornerback to help their dreadful secondary. They could even trade down to do so, but I’m obviously not going to project that in this Senior Bowl-only mock draft.
Azareye’h Thomas is a very tall cornerback who provided tight coverage on receivers all year.
6. Las Vegas Raiders: Riley Leonard, QB, Notre Dame 
The Raiders are so desperate for a quarterback that they could reach like this. They really wanted Michael Penix Jr. last year, but were beaten to the punch by Atlanta.
Riley Leonard has plus size, arm strength, and accuracy.
7. New York Jets: Princely Umanmielen, DE, Ole Miss
Haason Reddick has his issues and will be entering free agency anyway, so the Jets may decide to add another edge rusher to further enhance the defense.
Princely Umanmielen has good size, as well as speed and athleticism off the edge.
8. Carolina Panthers: Omar Norman-Lott, DT, Tennessee 
The Panthers had the worst run defense in the NFL last year. Sure, they were down some players, but they really need help on their defensive line.
Omar Norman-Lott is a big defensive tackle who generates a quality pass rush despite his impressive size.
9. New Orleans Saints: Shemar Turner, DT, Texas A&M 
The Saints are undoubtedly taking a close look at the defensive tackles at the Senior Bowl, given the huge hole they have at the position.
Shemar Turner had a down final season. He needs some improvement to his game.
10. Chicago Bears: Deone Walker, NT, Kentucky 
I have this pick in the second round of my real 2025 NFL Mock Draft. It makes sense, as this prospect can help Chicago improve its poor run defense.
Deone Walker is a massive nose tackle, but he can generate pressure on the quarterback despite his size.
11. San Francisco 49ers: Josh Conerly, OT, Oregon 
The 49ers desperately need offensive line help. They have no successor for Trent Williams, who missed seven games last year.
Josh Conerly is a quick and athletic pass protector.
12. Dallas Cowboys: Walter Nolen, DT, Ole Miss
The Cowboys have taken chances on troubled players like Walter Nolen in the past. He can really help their poor defensive tackle situation.
Walter Nolen was a highly recruited player who has shown a ton of upside.
13. Miami Dolphins: Aiereontae Ersery, OT, Minnesota 
The Dolphins have major offensive line issues. They can’t rely on Terron Armstead, and that’s the least of their problems. They need a right tackle for the present and a left tackle for the future.
Aiereontae Ersery is an explosive lineman, and he is a very physical blocker at the point of attack.
14. Indianapolis Colts: Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky
The Colts had a defense that couldn’t stop anyone down the stretch, so I imagine they’ll be drafting the best player on that side of the ball. They were set to take Terrion Arnold in the 2024 NFL Draft before Laiatu Latu fell to them, so this could easily be a cornerback pick.
Maxwell Hairston has plus size and has performed on a high level thus far in school.
15. Atlanta Falcons: Landon Jackson, DE/DT, Arkansas 
The Falcons improved their awful pass rush after the bye, but it still needs some help. There are many talented defensive linemen at the Senior Bowl who could help.
Landon Jackson has high upside and can play end in the 4-3 and five-tech in the 3-4.
16. Arizona Cardinals: T.J. Sanders, DT, South Carolina 
The Cardinals have had defensive line issues since losing J.J. Watt and Chandler Jones, so it’s about time that they fix those problems.
T.J. Sanders had a breakout ’23 season. He possesses a ton of upside.
17. Cincinnati Bengals: Tommi Hill, CB, Nebraska 
The Bengals have a horrible defense, so they could easily pick the best defensive player available.
Tommi Hill has plus size, instincts, and ball skills.
18. Seattle Seahawks: Jonah Monheim, C/G/OT, USC 
I have this pick in the second round of my real mock draft. It makes sense, as the Seahawks had a horrible guard-center-guard situation last year.
Jonah Monheim can play every position on the offensive line, but looks to be best at center.
19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Josaiah Stewart, OLB, Michigan 
Tampa Bay’s pass rush has taken a hit in recent years, so they could rectify that with this pick.
Josaiah Stewart is undersized, but he’s a dangerous pass rusher.
20. Denver Broncos: Mason Taylor, TE, LSU
As stated in my real mock, Bo Nix needs another weapon. This could come in the form of a tight end, as Sean Payton may want to obtain his next Jimmy Graham.
Mason Taylor is an athletic receiving tight end.
21. Pittsburgh Steelers: Ollie Gordon, RB, Oklahoma State 
The Steelers have shown us that they’re willing to draft a running back in the first round. They could do that here, given that Najee Harris will be entering free agency.
Ollie Gordon is a big back, but showed functional receiving ability along with his impressive vision and contact balance.
22. Los Angeles Chargers: Donovan Edwards, RB, Michigan
Here’s another team that could draft a running back. J.K. Dobbins was great last year, but he’s an impending free agent.
Donovan Edwards has a great combination of size and speed.
23. Green Bay Packers: Jared Ivey, DE, Ole Miss
The Packers need to improve their pass rush, which is in the bottom half of pressure rate.
Jared Ivey is a quick and strong defensive lineman who can play in both the 4-3 and 3-4.
24. Minnesota Vikings: Dante Trader, S, Maryland 
Harrison Smith doesn’t have much time remaining. The Vikings could use another safety.
Dante Trader is undersized, but he was a solid player for Maryland.
25. Houston Texans: Arian Smith, WR, Georgia 
Receiver was not a need for the Texans a year ago, but Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell are both coming off serious injuries. Diggs also happens to be an impending free agent.
Arian Smith has great speed and major upside.
26. Los Angeles Rams: Anthony Belton, OT, N.C. State 
The Rams could be in the market for a left tackle, depending on what happens with Alaric Jackson’s expiring contract.
Anthony Belton is a massive tackle, but has enough quickness and athleticism to remain on the edge.
27. Baltimore Ravens: Damien Martinez, RB, Miami 
Derrick Henry was a great addition, but at 31, he won’t be around much longer.
Damien Martinez is a big downhill runner who can punish tacklers.
28. Detroit Lions: Wyatt Milum, G/OT, West Virginia 
The Lions always make the offensive line a priority, and they will be interested in finding an eventual replacement for Kevin Zeitler.
Wyatt Milum has the size and ability to be considered at tackle or guard.
29. Washington Redskins: Da’Quan Felton, WR, Virginia Tech 
The Redskins need to give Jayden Daniels another receiver to pair with Terry McLaurin.
Da’Quan Felton wasn’t productive at school, but showed some nice ability at times.
30. Buffalo Bills: Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa State 
Khalil Shakir was Buffalo’s only viable receiver down the stretch. This obviously must change.
Jayden Higgins is a massive receiver and a potential matchup nightmare in the NFL.
31. Philadelphia Eagles: Jalen Rivers, OT/G, Miami
The Eagles like to build for the future, and Lane Johnson turns 35 right after the 2025 NFL Draft.
Jalen Rivers is a versatile blocker who played both tackle and guard at Miami.
32. Kansas City Chiefs: Terrance Ferguson, TE, Oregon
I’ve mocked this prospect to the Chiefs in the fourth round, given that they’ll need a successor for Travis Kelce.
Terrance Ferguson was a quality contributor for Oregon.
