Over the last few weeks, I’ve been releasing my final position rankings for the 2025 draft. Now it’s time to unveil my top 150 big board. If you’ve been following along with my position rankings, most of these names will be familiar to you. A few will be new, however, as they didn’t make the top 20 at their position but are still in the top 150 overall.
For more in-depth scouting reports on these players and others, check out my full position rankings series below. We’ll have you covered here at NFLTR in the lead-up to the draft with mock drafts, bold predictions, and more, so check back for more draft content!
Final Position Rankings:
- Quarterbacks
- Running Backs
- Wide Receivers
- Tight Ends
- Offensive Tackles
- Interior Offensive Line
- Edge Rushers
- Defensive Tackles
- Linebackers
- Cornerbacks
- Safeties
1: Travis Hunter, WR/CB, Colorado
The reigning Heisman winner and the most unique player to come through the draft in a long time, Hunter is a future All-Pro at cornerback or wide receiver. Which he ends up primarily playing may depend on where he lands.
2: Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State
Jeanty is in the conversation with Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson for the best running back prospect in the last decade. Everything from his contact balance, vision, burst, and more is elite.
3: Abdul Carter, ED, Penn State
A dynamic pass rusher with superstar potential, Carter is a raw but enticing prospect. It would be shocking to see him fall out of the top four.
4: James Pearce Jr., ED, Tennessee
One of the more controversial players in this class, I’m still a big believer in Pearce’s talent. He’s a juiced-up speed demon roaring off the edge who gets after quarterbacks.
5: Mason Graham, DT, Michigan
He may be undersized, but Graham is about as plug-and-play as you can get. He’s an elite run defender with eye-popping pass-rush talent.
6: Will Johnson, CB, Michigan
Lingering athleticism questions may push him out of the top 10, but Johnson is still one of my favorite players in this class. He’s a prototypical CB1 in the NFL with the talent and refined skill to be an impact starter right away.
7: Will Campbell, G, LSU
I think Campbell will need to move inside to guard at the next level, but that shouldn’t take away from his talent. He’s the best offensive lineman in the draft.
8: Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
If you want to upgrade your passing attack, this is the guy to do it. Warren dominates the middle of the field and can line up all over the formation.
9: Armand Membou, OT, Missouri
The best true tackle available, Membou’s freaky athleticism gives him a high ceiling. Expect him to be drafted in the top 10 and start Week 1.
10: Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona
Don’t think of McMillan as just a big-bodied possession receiver. He’s got great twitch in his movements, can separate at all levels of the field, and provides additional production after the catch.
11: Nic Scourton, ED, Texas A&M
It’s been an up-and-down pre-draft process for Scourton, but his tape is still elite. He can really rush the passer with an arsenal of moves to hunt his targets.
12: Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas
Barron is old, experienced, and extremely athletic. That’s a fantastic combination, and he’s got the versatility to start at multiple positions in the secondary.
13: Mike Green, ED, Marshall
A fan-favorite small-school player, Green proved at the Senior Bowl that his production for the Thundering Herd wasn’t a fluke. He’s bendy and explosive around the edge.
14: Donovan Jackson, G, Ohio State
One of my favorite players in this draft, Jackson started at left tackle down the stretch for the Buckeyes. His natural home is at guard, but his proven floor at tackle gives him additional utility.
15: Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan
If you want a wide receiver who lines up as a tight end, Loveland’s your guy. A lethargic 2024 Wolverines offense may have cooled his hype, but it didn’t change how dynamic a receiving threat he is.
16: Shemar Stewart, ED, Texas A&M
I’m usually not one to bet on crazy athleticism with little production to show for it, but Stewart is a unique case. He’s one of the most athletic edge rushers in Combine history, and his pressure numbers as a junior were solid.
17: Matthew Golden, WR, Texas
The fastest receiver at the Combine, Golden pairs that speed with phenomenal route-running chops. His instincts and length at the catch point make him a true weapon with the potential to be a WR1 in the league.
18: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
The consensus QB1, Ward offers a lot of upside. His ability to create when the play breaks down is one of his best attributes.
19: Walter Nolen, DT, Ole Miss
A top-flight recruit who finally broke out in his junior season, Nolen offers immense pass-rush upside from the interior. We need to see more consistent production from him, but his ceiling is through the roof.
20: Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas
A powerful tackle who’s anchored the Longhorns’ line for years, Banks could stay put or slide inside in the NFL. Either way, his raw strength and fluid movement skills will be a major boon.
21: TreVeyon Henderson, RB, Ohio State
I’d compare what Henderson offers his new team to what Jahmyr Gibbs has done for the Lions. He’ll inject a boost of speed, playmaking, and versatility to any backfield.
22: Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State
Though he’ll be primarily playing from the slot in the NFL, Egbuka is a dynamic creator at the receiver position. He runs routes with sharp, precise cuts, and he makes people miss with the ball in his hands too.
23: Jonah Savaiinaea, OT, Arizona
I’m going against consensus by proposing that Savaiinaea should stay at tackle. I just think the upside he offers there is worth the risk, but even if he’s forced inside, his play strength and effectiveness on the move make him a seamless fit.
24: Shavon Revel, CB, East Carolina
Revel wasn’t able to test due to an ACL tear back in September, but he’s one of the most athletic players in this class. His game needs some refinement, but you won’t find a better press-man prospect in the class.
25: Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan
The way Grant moves at his size is nothing short of ridiculous. Improving his down-to-down consistency will be important for his career, but the way he slips blocks and creates havoc in the backfield from the nose tackle position is rare.
26: Grey Zabel, G, North Dakota State
Though he ended his career with the Bisons playing tackle, Zabel will play guard or center in the NFL. He dominated the Senior Bowl, shooting his stock up draft boards.
27: Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina
Hampton is the last person a linebacker wants to see running full speed at him in the hole. Immensely physical with some serious wiggle to his game, he’s one of the better all-around backs in recent years.
28: Andrew Mukuba, S, Texas
Mukuba might be the player I’m highest on relative to consensus. I’m a big believer in his athleticism, range and one-on-one coverage translating.
29: T.J. Sanders, DT, South Carolina
A physical, pass-rushing 3-tech, Sanders is quietly one of the more productive interior defensive linemen in this class. Let him pin his ears back and wreak havoc.
30: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
Sanders’ stock is all over the place as we approach draft night. He was once seen as a near-lock for the top five, now he could free-fall out of the top 10 — and there’s a small chance he’s not a first-round pick at all.
31: Elic Ayomanor, WR, Stanford
A disciplined route-runner with size, Ayomanor is physical at the catch point and plays strong through contact. He doesn’t generate a ton of separation, but he can take the top off a defense.
32: Marcus Mbow, G, Purdue
Mbow might be the only player in this draft who can comfortably play all five spots along the offensive line. Length limitations likely push him inside, but he’s a smooth athlete with incredible range in his movement.
33: Darius Alexander, DT, Toledo
His stellar senior season at Toledo caught scouts’ attention. Alexander is a staunch run defender with some great pass-rush moves.
34: Malaki Starks, S, Georgia
Reliable and technically sound, Starks is one of the best run defenders I’ve ever scouted at the safety position. I question his true range in single-high schemes, but he’s a plug-and-play starter in a two-high system.
35: Trey Amos, CB, Ole Miss
A long corner ideally suited to playing man coverage, Amos didn’t get many opportunities to produce until this past season. He was one of the most productive corners in college football.
36: Donovan Ezeiruaku, ED, Boston College
An elite college pass rusher, Ezeiruaku is undersized for the NFL and his lack of plus short-area athleticism could hurt him. But you won’t find a more technically refined pass rusher in this class.
37: Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon
After three underwhelming seasons at Michigan State, Harmon exploded last year for the Ducks. His ability to get after the passer from the interior is difficult to defend.
38: Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina
A true top-tier athlete even by NFL standards, Emmanwori is a safety in a linebacker’s body. He’s best deployed near the line of scrimmage, where his closing speed and physicality is most effective.
39: Tyleik Williams, DT, Ohio State
Though he doesn’t offer much as a pass rusher beyond collapsing the pocket, Williams is a phenomenal run defender. He shuts down rushing attacks to his side of the field, handling double-teams and working off them to make plays.
40: Jaylin Noel, WR, Iowa State
A shifty receiver with some burners after the catch, Noel impressed with his Combine testing. Though he mostly plays in the slot, he has the versatility to be deployed out wide from time to time.
41: Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State
Simmons was off to a great season before suffering a torn patellar tendon that cut his year short. He’s reportedly ahead of schedule on his rehab and, when healthy, offers prototypical size for the position with fluid movement skills.
42: Landon Jackson, ED, Arkansas
He didn’t get the same buzz others did, but Jackson quietly had one of the best testing Combines in the class. He’s long and fast, with the strength to hold the edge and drive through opposing linemen.
43: Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa State
Whether he’s lined up outside or in the slot, Higgins wins with size and agility. He’s a plus route-runner with soft hands and a reliable skillset that’s a fit in any offense.
44: Jalen Milroe, QB, Alabama
Much has been made of Milroe’s inconsistency in college, but the high-level quarterbacking he does isn’t talked about enough. He’s got a cannon for an arm with plus athleticism, but he also reads the field well and goes through his progressions. He just needs to be more accurate.
45: Elijah Arroyo, TE, Miami
I’ve been impressed with Arroyo throughout this whole process. He’s fluid in space with the mentality to be a blocking weapon down the line too.
46: Bhayshul Tuten, RB, Virginia Tech
The fastest running back in this class, Tuten puts stress on the defense on every snap. He can operate in traffic or in space, and is capable catching passes out of the backfield.
47: Josh Conerly Jr., OT, Oregon
Conerly started multiple seasons for the Ducks at left tackle. He’s a fluid mover with high-level upside in the NFL, but he’ll need to add significant functional strength to reach that potential.
48: JT Tuimoloau, ED, Ohio State
A stout run defender with an elite power profile, Tuimoloau was one of the highest-rated recruits in college football history. He’s not an overwhelming pass rusher, but he consistently produces and offers a high floor as an NFL starter.
49: Xavier Watts, S, Notre Dame
With just two years of starting experience at safety after converting from the offense, Watts has incredible playmaking instincts. He can play either safety position and has impressive versatility in coverage.
50: Quinshon Judkins, RB, Ohio State
An offensive engine when he played at Ole Miss, Judkins looked disengaged at times last season for Ohio State. But he turned it on when it mattered most in the playoffs, and he’s a breakaway runner who’s physical through contact.

51: Dylan Sampson, RB, Tennessee

79: Emery Jones Jr., G, LSU
80: Mitchell Evans, TE, Notre Dame

Sub-package linebacker specializing in coverage.
102: Wyatt Milum, OT, West Virginia
The best pass-blocking tackle in college football the last two seasons, there are some questions as to his fit in the NFL. Lack of length likely means a transition to guard.
103: Dillon Gabriel, QB, Oregon
Most experienced quarterback in college football history, projects as a priority backup who can step in and keep an offense on schedule.
