Is it too early to start talking about the 2025 NFL Draft?

[staylor26]

WR is going to be strong per usual with Luther Burden, Tetairoa McMillan, Emeka Egbuka, Evan Stewart, Nic Anderson, Isaiah Bond, and my early personal favorite Tre Harris. Should also mention Travis Hunter.

RB looks absolutely loaded at the top with Quinshon Judkins, Ollie Gordon IV, Omarion Hampton, TreVeyon Henderson, Ashton Jeanty, and Trevor Etienne. I would love to grab one of those guys with one of our 3 day 2 picks.

Colston Loveland and Mitchell Evans look better than every TE from this year's draft minus Bowers.

I expected OT to be weak after this year, but Kelvin Banks Jr., Will Campbell, Earnest Greene III, and Emery Jones all look like possible 1st round picks.

IOL looks weak early on, so I really like that we took a couple of swings on day 3 there.

Next year's QB class is going to be awful, barring somebody making a huge jump IMO. Sanders, Beck, and Milroe at the top looks pretty bad. Sanders is probably the best of the bunch, but Beck could surpass him. I'd be pretty disappointed if I were a Raiders fan after missing out on Penix. They should've taken Rattler.

Defensively, James Pearce Jr. looks to be the early favorite for #1 in the class. Dude has all the tools to be a top 5 pick. The EDGE class looks like it could and should be much better than this year's. Princely Umanmielen, Nic Scourton, Patrick Payton, J.T. Tuimoloau, Ashton Gillote, Dani Dennis-Sutton, Mykel Williams. Landon Jackson, who mogby be my favorite, reminds me so much of Maxx Crosby.

Harold Perkins and Abdul Carter are two extremely talented LBs that should go in the 1st round. Both guys can get after the QB too. Very unique talents. Barrett Carter looks like a safe bet to be your typical early day 2 LB.

DT is similar to this year with a couple of 1st rounders in Mason Graham and probably my early favorite prospect this entire class in Kentucky DT Deone Walker. Graham's tape against Washington in the NC game was very impressive after looking at his actual production. The other Michigan DT Kenneth Grant looks like he could get into that late 1st round conversation.

At CB, Will Johnson and Benjamin Morrison look like a couple of top 10 picks. Denzel Burke is a guy I thought would come out this year and be a mid-late 1st. Jabbar Muhammad looks like yet another stud Washington CB. I'm interested to see if teams like Travis Hunter more at CB or WR. He's just so damn good at both.

Malaki Starks and Kevin Winston Jr. are likely a couple of 1st round safeties. Winston is one of my early favorites. Andrew Mukuba is another guy I liked and thought would come out this year. Feels like he could've been S1 in this year's class, but I don't see it next year.

I'd keep an eye on WR Evan Stewart. He transferred from Texas A&M to Oregon. He's a small speed guy like Worthy and Brown.

Would not forget about Tory Horton (Colorado State) or J. Michael Sturdivant (UCLA) at WR.

I agree on Kenneth Grant, dude is a beast NT. Put Dontay Corleone from Cincy in that category as well. Probably not 1st but should be in play in the 2nd.

Tyler Baron, DE, Tennessee will enter the draft at 23 but he's a very Spags DE. He interests me

RB class is loaded, I posted on that somewhere already.

Yea, Stewart was one of the WRs I mentioned. Will be interesting to watch him and Tez Johnson both in that Oregon offense.

I remember Horton now that you mention him from that Colorado game. Remember thinking he might come out, but just kind of forgot about him since.

I've seen Corelone's name but haven't watched. I'll check him out.

Baron is actually the player in watched some of last night because his cut-up against Alabama got posted by a YT channel I follow.

Stanford WR Elic Ayomanor is a guy I'll be interested to watch this upcoming season, not sure if he is a good fit for the Chiefs but I thought he had an impressive first season.

I watched his game against Colorado last night. Holy shit. Dude just abused Hunter.

13 for 294 yards in one half- absolutely insane performance.

This draft will be so deep at RB you don't need to spend even a day 2 pick on one. It's insane.


I'll give you guys a guy that might get slept on a bit for a while... Antario Brown from Northern Illinois. Check him out

I know it's not exactly necessary, but I'd love to get one of the top guys with one of those 3 day 2 picks. The Titans pick feels like a good spot to take a RB.

It'd have to be for a guy like TreVeyon Henderson. Anything less than that I feel is moot. Speed an elite elusive qualities would be what I look for high.

I was thinking Jeanty, but Henderson would work as well.

WTAF?

Unless Barry Sanders is coming out, I will pass on first round running backs.

They are usually washed before the end of their 5th year option. And, as Pacheco has shown, they can be found later in the draft.

I would like to find an offensive weapon in the first. Someone that does it all. Or, a guy like Deebo, or a guy like Taysom Hill. I really feel like Reid and the boys could come up with so many great plays for players like that.

I think we should double down and get a Bo Jackson in the 4-5th!

As long as we don't go all-in like Mike Ditka did for Ricky Williams, but sure, a stud RB would be a lot of fun in KC.
