The 2024 NFL regular season and the college football campaign are nearing, and in a few months’ time, they’ll converge with the 2025 NFL Draft.
Here are two prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft class that each NFL team should keep an eye on through the process.
2025 NFL Draft: 2 Prospects To Watch for Each NFL Team
Arizona Cardinals: Luther Burden III, WR; Mason Graham, DT
The outlook of the Arizona Cardinals’ roster certainly took a step in the right direction, but another offseason of talent acquisition is needed before the team returns to the playoffs. Specifically, if they can nail their next first-round pick, they’ll be golden.
In Round 1 next year, the Cardinals will have options on either side of the ball. Offensively, it’s fun to think about the complementary effect Luther Burden III would have as an elite RAC threat in tandem with Marvin Harrison Jr. But defense is just as good a route to take.
On the defensive side, adding a dominant interior defensive lineman could help tie together a unit that’s young and ascending. Mason Graham, in particular, stands out as a strong choice with his alignment versatility, wrecking physicality, athleticism, and strength.
Atlanta Falcons: Isaiah Bond, WR; Nic Scourton, EDGE
If you ask me, the Falcons should have spent their first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft on either a wide receiver or an edge rusher. Now, those stand out as two of their top needs in the 2025 NFL Draft cycle. They’ll at least be able to make up for the missed opportunity.
At wide receiver, Isaiah Bond could be a strong fit alongside Drake London. London functions as the X-receiver, while Bond — at 5’11”, 185 pounds — serves his purpose as a supercharged separator with sharp instincts and size-defying competitive zeal.
At EDGE, there’ll be an embarrassment of riches for the Falcons to sort through. That said, Nic Scourton could be a particularly exciting target with his complete pallet of traits. Despite his size at 6’4″, 280 pounds, he wins with finesse and rushes from 2-point stances.
Baltimore Ravens: Aireontae Ersery, OT; Tyler Onyedim, DT
Roger Rosengarten should grow to become the Ravens’ long-term starter at right tackle. However, left tackle could soon become a need once again. Ronnie Stanley Jr.’s health has been a question mark recently, and he also nears a contract expiration.
At left tackle, one of the Ravens’ more compelling options in the 2025 NFL Draft class could be Minnesota’s Aireontae Ersery. Likely a Day 2 selection at the moment, Ersery has the size and power Baltimore prefers at 6’6″, 330 pounds, and he’s an explosive mover.
Defensively, another penetrating interior lineman would do wonders alongside Travis Jones and Justin Madubuike on the front. Tyler Onyedim fits the bill with his well-proportioned 6’4″, 295-pound frame, his elite explosive athleticism, and his eye-catching flexibility.
Buffalo Bills: Emeka Egbuka, WR; Shavon Revel, CB
Josh Allen has a new weapon in Keon Coleman, and both Khalil Shakir and Curtis Samuel are competent ancillary receivers. That said, Coleman is unproven as an orbiting force, and Buffalo may need more ammunition in the 2025 NFL Draft. Emeka Egbuka is who I’d take.
PLAYOFF PREDICTOR: Will Your Favorite NFL Team Make the Playoffs?
At 6’1″, 205 pounds, Egbuka is a unique WR who offers all-encompassing utility. His medical history may invite doubts, but if he can stay healthy, he brings explosive athleticism, RAC chops, disciplined route running skills, and blocking ability.
Cornerback is a position to monitor for Buffalo, as Rasul Douglas will be a free agent soon. Shavon Revel fits the Bills’ profile with his length and athleticism, and he has the quickness and physicality to suffocate in man coverage while also flowing downhill in support.
Carolina Panthers: Travis Hunter, WR/CB; Jalon Walker, EDGE
The Carolina Panthers made use of the 2024 offseason, making moves to strengthen the roster on both sides of the ball. Now, what they need is playmakers. And on both sides of the ball, Travis Hunter qualifies the most of any prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft.
The Panthers could have use for Hunter at cornerback pending the long-term futures of Jaycee Horn and Dane Jackson, but he’d arguably be even more valuable at wide receiver as a true separator and three-level threat to pair with Bryce Young and Xavier Legette.
On defense, Ejiro Evero’s edge rushing rotation could use an infusion of youth and long-term security. At around 6’2″, 250 pounds, Jalon Walker fits Evero’s preferred mold with his wide-alignment skill set and exciting speed-to-power.
Chicago Bears: Will Sheppard, WR; Mykel Williams, EDGE
The interior offensive line, in general, is an area for Chicago to watch in the 2025 NFL Draft cycle, but two other needs stand out on both sides of the ball: Wide receiver — pending Keenan Allen’s free agency in 2025 — and edge rusher opposite Montez Sweat.
Austin Booker has promise — as he’s shown early in the preseason — but the Bears would do well to add another devastating power profile across from Sweat. At 6’5″, 260 pounds, Mykel Williams has the length and force that Matt Eberflus craves, and he’s a rare athlete.
The WR conversation is a bit trickier, as there are no 1-to-1 replacements for Allen. But Will Sheppard, with his fluidity, route-running chops, size, versatility, and ability to convert in the red zone, could be a strong complementary threat to Rome Odunze and DJ Moore.
Cincinnati Bengals: Chris Brazzell II, WR; Princely Umanmielen, EDGE
The priority for the Cincinnati Bengals is pinpointing a potential replacement for Tee Higgins, who’s playing the 2024 season on the franchise tag. If there’s anyone who could fill that void in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tennessee’s Chris Brazzell II could be the one.
At 6’5″, 200 pounds, Brazzell looks like a contested catch artist at first glance. But then you see him move, and you realize you’ve been mistaken. He’s an incredibly fluid and nuanced separator with a full route tree, and his catch-point skills are borderline immaculate.
If there’s another position for Cincinnati to focus on, it’s the edge. Trey Hendrickson’s contract is a point of contention, Myles Murphy’s returns are uncertain, and Joseph Ossai will be a free agent soon. Princely Umanmielen has the burst, bend, and length to hedge.
Cleveland Browns: Will Campbell, OT; Aeneas Peebles, DT
All eyes are on the trenches for the Cleveland Browns. Jedrick Wills regressed after his fifth-year option was exercised, and if he isn’t extended, left tackle will be a void. Will Campbell is a popular choice as a successor with his balance, mobility, and compact power.
Meanwhile, on the defensive line, Mike Hall Jr.’s off-field uncertainty and incoming free agents combine to create additional precariousness. Virginia Tech’s Aeneas Peebles is one defensive tackle prospect who’d fit the Browns’ mold alongside Dalvin Tomlinson.
Peebles is unique in that he has the build (6’1″, 290 pounds) and the burst off the line you’d expect from a disruptor, but he’s also wholly competent at one-gapping blocks and preventing displacement in run defense.
Dallas Cowboys: Ollie Gordon II, RB; Deontae Lawson, LB
If things go as planned, the Cowboys’ additions of Tyler Guyton and Cooper Beebe will help solidify their front on offense. But until the Cowboys have a true RB1, playing ball control offense with a lead may be challenging. Ollie Gordon II can help in that respect.
A relatively local prospect at Oklahoma State, Gordon is one of the better fits for the “volume back” profile. At 6’2″, 215 pounds, he has the size and physicality you’d expect, but he’s also unnaturally flexible on cuts and incredibly creative as a runner.
Defensively, the Cowboys’ second level abounds with short- and long-term uncertainty. Deontae Lawson is a good Day 2 option to keep an eye on. He has size, length, and quick twitch, and his willing physicality in close quarters is an excellent sign.
Denver Broncos: Tetairoa McMillan, WR; Deone Walker, DT
Bo Nix has already shown promise as the Broncos’ quarterback of the future, but Denver can’t get complacent with his supporting cast. Courtland Sutton’s long-term future is uncertain, Josh Reynolds is on a short-term deal, and other young players are unproven.
The circumstances could be ripe for Denver to give Nix a new WR1 in the 2025 NFL Draft, and Tetairoa McMillan — otherwise known as “T-Mac” — is an especially good fit. He’s a good size-adjusted separator who also serves as a fluid RAC threat and catch-point savant.
If the Broncos decide to go with defense in Round 1, however, infusing the interior defensive line with talent makes a lot of sense. Deone Walker‘s sheer potential in Vance Joseph’s scheme is tantalizing, as he brings rare attacking ability at 6’6″, 348 pounds.
Detroit Lions: Jayden Higgins, WR; Patrick Payton, EDGE
The Lions seem poised to stay in contention for years on end with Dan Campbell at the helm. But there is one glaring need that remains on the record ahead of the 2024 season: Edge rusher opposite Aidan Hutchinson. This could come back to hurt the Lions.
There are many EDGE prospects set to inhabit the early rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft, but for Detroit, Florida State’s Patrick Payton commands additional attention. At 6’5″, 254 pounds, he’s a playmaking albatross with rare burst and bend for his size.
Offensively, the Lions are better situated — but a safety blanket at WR3 could be valuable. At 6’4″, 215 pounds, Jayden Higgins could fill the “Josh Reynolds” role as a well-sized chain-mover, and he might be even more fluid as a separator.
Green Bay Packers: Nofoafia Tulafono, C; Tacario Davis, CB
The Green Bay Packers are unique in that they don’t have too many glaring needs. But one area of focus on the horizon is center. There’s a chance they move on from Josh Myers. If they do, scouring the 2025 NFL Draft for a replacement is the next order of business.
PFN’s top center — Parker Brailsford — might be too light for Green Bay’s taste, but a sleeper to watch is Wyoming’s Nofoafia Tulafono. At 6’2″, 320 pounds, Tulafono is dense, well-leveraged, and incredibly strong, and he brings a mean streak in open space.
For Jeff Hafley’s middle-field-closed defense, Tacario Davis is a CB option to keep tabs on. Davis thrives in side-saddle with his gliding speed and all-encompassing length at 6’4″, but he also has the physicality and discipline to hold up WRs at the line.
Houston Texans: Emeka Egbuka, WR; Denzel Burke, CB
For the moment, the Texans have their “dream team” on offense with C.J. Stroud, Joe Mixon, Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs, and Tank Dell. But Diggs and veteran Robert Woods will be free agents in 2025. WR3 will soon command Houston’s attention once again.

A natural fit for the Texans would be Ohio State’s Egbuka, who played with Stroud in 2021 and 2022, so they’d have pre-existing chemistry. And at 6’1″, 205 pounds, Egbuka could be the perfect movement-Z utility wideout alongside Collins and Dell.
Sticking with the Buckeyes’ loaded roster, Denzel Burke is a player to watch on defense. Boundary CB opposite Derek Stingley Jr. is a potential need, and Burke would fill it nicely with his coverage variability, physicality, and WR-esque ball skills.
Indianapolis Colts: Colston Loveland, TE; Malaki Starks, S
The Colts’ offensive cast is nearly complete, but one thing lacking in Shane Steichen’s offense is a true mismatch at tight end. All of their current options are unproven or have thus far underperformed, and several will be free agents in 2025.
Colston Loveland could be the exact mismatch generator that Steichen and Anthony Richardson need. With his size and speed, Loveland can threaten vertically and work up the seam, but he’s also an elite separator with logic-defying fluidity and grace in his motion.
On defense, it’s simple. The Colts need safety help, and Malaki Starks is a blue-chip prospect. They’d likely have to choose between Loveland or Starks, but Starks is an equally compelling choice with his range, versatility, and two-phase dominance.
Jacksonville Jaguars: Fernando Carmona Jr., OT; Rod Moore, S
Cam Robinson is set to be a free agent, as is the Jaguars’ swing tackle Walker Little. Anton Harrison is a proven bookend on the right side, but left tackle will soon be a need again. If Jacksonville is picking later in Round 1, Arkansas’ Fernando Carmona Jr. could be an option.
At around 6’5″, 324 pounds, Carmona is a powerhouse whose violent torque output is only matched by his desire to bury opponents. While he can be a bit uncontrolled with his pad level, he has all of the athletic and temperamental qualities to thrive in the NFL.
Jacksonville’s defense is looking better with each offseason, but the secondary could be in need of maintenance next offseason. Rod Moore‘s stock is up in the air after a torn ACL in the spring, but he could be the perfect multifaceted safety with his versatility.
Kansas City Chiefs: Nic Anderson, WR; Tacario Davis, CB
Even with Rashee Rice, Marquise Brown, and Xavier Worthy underscoring Kansas City’s receiving corps, there could still be turnover on the horizon. Rice is still proving himself dependable, and Brown is on a one-year deal. Re-investment is almost assured in 2025.
Oklahoma’s Nic Anderson is a prospect to watch who could give the Chiefs their oft-desired variability. Anderson is still developing as a separator, but he’s an explosive, long-striding big-play threat at 6’4″, 213 pounds, with the traits to be a mismatch generator.
Defensively, the Chiefs’ uncertainty at boundary cornerback is glaring, and one prospect in particular who fits Steve Spagnuolo’s preferences is Davis. At 6’4″, 190 pounds, Davis is long, physical, and nuanced, with the vertical speed to contend downfield.
Las Vegas Raiders: Donovan Smith, QB; Azareye’h Thomas, CB
For the Las Vegas Raiders, all of the 2025 NFL Draft quarterbacks are worth keeping tabs on, but local Las Vegas product and current Houston signal-caller Donovan Smith bears watching as a big-time sleeper.
At around 6’5″, 235 pounds, Smith has all of the raw physical talent to be an NFL starter, and there are bright flashes of pocket management, anticipation, and situational precision on tape.
On defense, Azareye’h Thomas is a high-upside prospect worth following on the Florida State defense. At 6’2″, 198 pounds, Thomas has length and explosiveness, along with playmaking chops and physicality. He could be a gem in the 2025 class.
Los Angeles Chargers: Colston Loveland, TE; Kenneth Grant, DT
Michigan prospects. That’s where we’re going to start for Jim Harbaugh’s squad. The Wolverines have upwards of over a dozen 2025 NFL Draft prospects, so if you’re a Chargers fan, that’s the team you should be locked in on. Two particularly fun fits stand out.
On offense, tight end Loveland would be a perfect match for what the Chargers need. He’s a combined vertical weapon and separation savant who’d give Justin Herbert a near-unbeatable weapon over the middle against linebackers.
On the defensive side, nose tackle Kenneth Grant is the name to know. The 6’3″, 339-pound lineman has the look of a pure space-eater, but he has the athleticism and motor to provide value as a pass rusher, too. Jesse Minter needs that kind of presence up front.
Los Angeles Rams: Fernando Carmona Jr., OT; Dontay Corleone, DT
The Los Angeles Rams could feasibly extend Alaric Jackson long term if he continues to excel in Sean McVay’s scheme in 2024. But there’s a chance the Rams move on in 2025. If they do, Carmona is the early-round sleeper to know.
Carmona’s combination of athleticism and power would be coveted across the league. But for the Rams in particular, his haste reaching the second level or landmarks on wide zone blocks would be invaluable, and he’s as physical as they come as a finisher.
Defensively, the Rams still need a nose tackle between Kobie Turner and Braden Fiske. Dontay Corleone would be a tremendous value addition on Day 2. At 6’1″, 320 pounds, he’s a rock at 0-tech and 1-tech, with the raw linear power to cave in interior blocks.
Miami Dolphins: Tyler Booker, G; Tyleik Williams, DT
There’s some newfound calmness among Miami Dolphins fans with Tua Tagovailoa locked down long-term. But the Dolphins must continue to insulate him with good blocking up front, and they can’t skimp on defense, either. Interior line talent remains a need.
Offensively, Tyler Booker is one of the strongest candidates to be the top offensive guard prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft. He’s a massive blocker at 6’5″, 352 pounds, and yet, he moves with impressive lateral freedom. In the run game, his power can be overwhelming.
On defense, Tyleik Williams might be the best fit for Anthony Weaver’s scheme. At 6’3″, 327 pounds, Williams is nose-capable alongside Zach Sieler. That said, he can also stunt and split out to 2i, 3-tech, and 4i with his athleticism and lower-body flexibility.
Minnesota Vikings: Devin Neal, RB; Mason Graham, DT
Offensively, the Vikings are almost set — assuming J.J. McCarthy will eventually be healthy and fully available. But with Aaron Jones on a short-term deal and with no second-round pick present in 2025, it could behoove the Vikings to search for mid-round gems at RB.
Devin Neal is one of the first names that comes to mind in that light in the 2025 NFL Draft. Neal has the low center of gravity and density to handle volume, but he’s also a twitched-up space navigator with excellent instincts, vision, and three-down ability.
If the Vikings can, they should use their first-round pick on a blue-chip defensive tackle. Graham is the top DT in the class with his blend of athleticism, heavy hands, and urgency in pursuit.
New England Patriots: Travis Hunter, WR/CB; Kaimon Rucker, EDGE
Interestingly, the Patriots are in a similar position as the Panthers, and they’re another one of the top choices for Hunter. Both rosters have their strong points. New England’s is their defense — but they’re still in drastic need of more playmakers for Drake Maye.
Hunter could play at CB and be just as impactful opposite Christian Gonzalez, but for Maye and the Patriots, his value could be greater at WR. While Ja’Lynn Polk serves as the movement-Z receiver, Hunter could be the central separator and target funnel.
While New England’s defense is strong, the EDGE rotation could take a hit soon. A particularly strong scheme fit in the 2025 NFL Draft is UNC’s Kaimon Rucker. Nicknamed “The Butcher,” he’s a 6’2″, 265-pound block destroyer with burst, bend, and power.
New Orleans Saints: Conner Weigman, QB; JT Tuimoloau, EDGE
Dennis Allen’s seat feels as though it’s starting to get warmer. Another year of middling production could mean the end for him. And a regime change could mean the end for Derek Carr. The 2025 NFL Draft QB class is uncertain, but Conner Weigman bears watching.
Weigman could be the wild card the Saints need in this QB class. At around 6’3″, 215 pounds, he fits the prototypical mold, and he has eye-catching arm talent and mobility. His current sample is small, but flashes of pristine touch and recognition are there on tape.
A regime change could render this point moot, but the Saints have traditionally had a “type” at EDGE with Allen leading the defense. At 6’4″, 270 pounds, JT Tuimoloau fits that type with his raw power element and strength at the point of attack.
New York Giants: Carson Beck, QB; Walter Nolen, DT
While it’s tempting to share in Giants fans’ optimism that Daniel Jones might rebound, I am very skeptical. The Giants were already shopping for QB options in the 2024 NFL Draft before their efforts proved fruitless. Odds are, they’re searching again in 2025.
Every 2025 QB is worth New York’s attention, but the current QB1 of the 2025 cycle on PFN’s board is Georgia’s Carson Beck. Beck is the consummate pocket passer, with the arm talent, nimble maneuverability, poise, and anticipation to dice up opposing defenses.
On defense, a prospect to watch is Ole Miss’ Walter Nolen. He’s still raw technically, but next to Dexter Lawrence, his sheer speed-to-power element would be very valuable, and he brings inbuilt alignment versatility.
New York Jets: Shedeur Sanders, QB; Ricardo Hallman, CB
The best-case scenario two-year outlook for the New York Jets involves Aaron Rodgers playing that entire two-year stretch at a reasonably high level. But seeing that he’s almost 41 years old and coming off a major injury, the Jets have to keep an eye on the future.
Like the Giants, no QB option is off the table. But an especially intriguing succession plan would be Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders. Sanders has garnered comparisons to Geno Smith with his easy arm talent, pocket mobility, and flashes of high-end accuracy and precision.
Once QB is settled, it’s on to other needs. Specifically, cornerback could be an area to pursue if D.J. Reed leaves in free agency. Ricardo Hallman is a similarly built player. Though undersized, Hallman is sticky in coverage and a born playmaker on the ball.
Philadelphia Eagles: Jalen Royals, WR; James Pearce Jr., EDGE
Johnny Wilson has been making waves in camp, but it remains to be seen if he can integrate as a full-time WR in the NFL. If the Eagles end up needing a more traditional WR3 alongside A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, Jalen Royals is one of the top options.
A potential gem from Utah State, Royals has an excellent separation framework at 6’0″, 195 pounds. He brings effervescent foot speed and throttle control in short areas, and he also has the body control and hands to convert on clutch downs and in the red zone.
Defensively, the impending free agency of Josh Sweat could make EDGE a need once again in 2025. Athletically, a prospect who could fill that void is James Pearce Jr.
At 6’5″, 242 pounds, Pearce is a little light, but he brings burst, bend, and forceful speed-to-power.
Pittsburgh Steelers: Jalen Milroe, QB; Cobee Bryant, CB
The Steelers have other needs on offense — running back and wide receiver chief among them — but it’s impossible not to look at the quarterback position with both Justin Fields and Russell Wilson on long-term deals. A potential riser to watch is Alabama’s Jalen Milroe.
Milroe has the physical talent to be an early first-round pick. He’s an electric athlete at 6’2″, 220 pounds, with a rocket arm. His tape is Day 3 quality right now, but a year with Kalen DeBoer coaching him up could do wonders for his development.
Elsewhere, the Steelers may soon need a replacement for Donte Jackson across from Joey Porter Jr. If they want a similar skill set, Cobee Bryant brings speed, playmaking ability, and a chippy attitude at the cost of size and play strength.
San Francisco 49ers: Kelvin Banks Jr., OT; Ephesians Prysock, CB
The San Francisco 49ers can’t continue to neglect the offensive tackle spot. They already had room to upgrade from Colton McKivitz in the 2024 offseason, and now Trent Williams’ holdout is driving the point home. In the 2025 cycle, there’ll be talent to parse through.
One of the top names on the 49ers’ list could end up being Texas’ Kelvin Banks Jr. At around 6’4″, 325 pounds, he has a unique combination of natural leverage and proportional length. But his burst and physicality as a blocker in space is especially “49ers-coded.”
The 49ers’ defense, meanwhile, could see Charvarius Ward and several others depart in free agency in 2025. If that happens, Ephesians Prysock profiles well as an experimental addition. At 6’4″, 195 pounds, he has the fluidity and quickness of a smaller CB.
Seattle Seahawks: Parker Brailsford, C; Dorian Strong, CB
Connor Williams will be a center-for-hire for the Seahawks in 2024, but in 2025 and onward, the Seahawks may need to find a long-term solution. Currently, the top center prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft is Alabama’s Brailsford.
Brailsford is undersized at 6’2″, 275 pounds, but the Seahawks have shown a willingness to work with those kinds of prospects. What he lacks in overall mass, Brailsford makes up for it with range, mobility, natural leverage, and physicality, and he’s stronger than expected.
Defensively, the Seahawks may have a need at CB3 alongside Devon Witherspoon and Riq Woolen. Mike Macdonald may favor a CB with natural cover skills, and Dorian Strong is a sleeper who fits that definition to a tee. He’s twitchy, fluid, and ultra-competitive.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Donovan Jackson, G; Shavon Revel, CB
There are a few areas to watch on offense for Tampa Bay. Chris Godwin is an impending free agent, but the continued growth of Jalen McMillan and Trey Palmer could help calm the waters. Offensive guard — specifically left guard — might be a bigger need to address.
Right now, Ben Bredeson is only a stopgap. Donovan Jackson would give the Buccaneers more long-term upside to work with. At 6’4″, 320 pounds, with elite explosiveness and proportional length, Jackson has the raw tools to dominate next to Graham Barton.

Defensively, cornerback is a major concern opposite Jamel Dean. The Buccaneers have always favored athletes at CB, and Revel fits the bill with his elite explosion, short-area quickness, and long speed at 6’2″, 188 pounds.
Tennessee Titans: Tetairoa McMillan, WR; Jaishawn Barham, LB
In the short term, the Titans have a strong WR trio. That could change in the 2025 offseason, however, with both DeAndre Hopkins and Tyler Boyd on expiring deals. Will Levis may soon need a new WR1, and McMillan qualifies with his tools.
At 6’5″, 210 pounds, McMillan is a streamlined WR with excellent hands and box-out skills. But quietly, he also has the foot speed, throttle control, and bend to thrive as a separator and RAC threat. With Calvin Ridley as the Z-receiver, McMillan would be formidable.
Tennessee’s biggest void on defense could be at linebacker, where there are currently no long-term assets. Jaishawn Barham could change that. At 6’3″, 248 pounds, he’s an effective blitzer and gap controller, and he has athletic upside in coverage.
Washington Commanders: Luther Burden III; Will Johnson, CB
The Commanders’ roster is stronger than it gets credit for. That’s perhaps a testament to the early work of head coach Dan Quinn and general manager Adam Peters. That said, there’s still a need for more offensive playmakers and more security in the secondary.
On offense, a threat like Burden would be incredibly dynamic. At 5’11”, 208 pounds, Burden could work as an elite RAC outlet for Jayden Daniels. But he also has the vertical athleticism and body control to stress defenses downfield alongside Terry McLaurin.
If the Commanders decide to wait on WR and go for defense in Round 1, Will Johnson is the prospect to target. The 6’2″, 202-pound cover man has smooth mobility, sharp instincts, vast schematic versatility, and a nose for the football that underpins his game.
