Who Are the Top Prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft?
Let’s break down the top prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft. Click each player’s name for their in-depth scouting report from Pro Football Network’s NFL Draft Analyst Ian Cummings.
Travis Hunter, WR/CB, Colorado
A unicorn in every sense of the word and the face of college football, Travis Hunter‘s exploits at both wide receiver and cornerback have earned him a reputation as a potential all-time great.
As it stands, Hunter is currently Cummings’ WR1 and CB3 in the 2025 NFL Draft. In the NFL, Hunter might be better served focusing on one position rather than playing both ways to avoid spreading himself too thin. But it’s also true that we simply haven’t seen anything like him. He could be the rare, truly viable two-way player.

At both positions, two traits stand out as central qualities to Hunter’s game: His hyper-elite athletic profile and his generational ball skills and catch-point instincts. Hunter simply moves differently. He brings awe-inspiring explosiveness, twitch, bend, and sink with his 6’1″ frame. He can use these dynamic traits either to gash coverages as a route runner, generate RAC yards in space, or match WRs and transition in zone coverage with effortless ease.
With his speed, agility, bend, separation ability, and infallible ball skills at the catch point, he can be a true three-level threat.
Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
The QB with the most NFL-ready skill set is Shedeur Sanders. The Colorado passer is the most accurate and reliable quarterback eligible for the 2025 NFL Draft, with the ability to operate full-field reads and manipulate the middle of the field.
Sanders doesn’t have the athletic upside of others, but his movement is underrated.
Despite playing behind one of the worst offensive lines in college football, the Buffaloes QB’s pocket navigation is extremely impressive, setting him up to potentially start as a rookie.
Arm strength and accuracy are two of the most distinct selling points on Sanders’ tape. He generates easy velocity and has a degree of off-platform freedom. And while his mechanics are imperfect, he can find uncanny ways to hit targets with good placement and touch.
Going further, Sanders’ processing — a trait honed across years of starting experience at the collegiate level — is also a relative strength. Sanders can operate pre-snap, recognize defensive looks, adjust protections, and progress through reads post-snap — and he’s a measured decision-maker who protects the ball more often than not.
Cam Ward, QB, Miami (FL)
Cam Ward is establishing himself toward the top of the 2025 QB rankings with an impressive season in Miami.
The playmaking QB had already displayed his creation capacity and big-play potential, but with the ‘Canes, he’s improved his leadership, accuracy, and ball security.
Ward is undeniably talented, making some of the hardest throws look effortless. His elite composite arm talent allows him to layer passes into incredibly tight windows. He’s a danger as a passer from any platform, inside or outside of structure, and his arm elasticity is perfectly attuned to the modern game.
Ward is a high-level problem solver in chaotic situations, with the combined malleability, as an athlete and a thrower, and the improvisational feel to make something out of nothing. But often in the past, he relied on that creation capacity to a fault because of other deficiencies.
So far in 2024, however, he’s shown progression as a pocket operator and field general. Ward is operating more frequently pre-snap, and he’s playing with more decisiveness and efficiency on multiple levels.
Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona
The race for WR1 in the 2025 NFL Draft cycle is close, but with his dominant skill set, Arizona’s Tetairoa McMillan might have what it takes to take home the crown.
At around 6’5″, 210 pounds, McMillan has logic-defying throttle control and flexibility, and he’s a stellar catch-point presence with his size and authority.
As a true freshman, McMillan caught 39 passes for 702 yards and eight scores. As a sophomore, he caught 90 passes for 1,402 yards and 10 touchdowns and was a second-team All-Pac-12 honoree. Thus far, in 2024, he’s been as dominant as we’ve seen him — a scary thought.
In Arizona’s very first game of the 2024 campaign against New Mexico, McMillan put together a 2016 Julio Jones-esque performance, racking up 10 catches for 304 yards and four touchdowns. That kind of domination is often reserved only for early-round talents.
That’s the kind of talent McMillan is: someone who can take over a game at a moment’s notice.
