Future Stars: Ranking the Top 25 NFL Draft Prospects of 2025, Highlighting Dominant Defensive Players and Rising Quarterbacks
2025 NFL Draft: Defensive Prospects Take Center Stage
Following a remarkable surge of offensive players in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, the 2025 Big Board sees a strong comeback from the defensive side. While the previous draft may have been dominated by quarterbacks and wide receivers, the upcoming season promises a shift towards defensive prowess.
Top Defensive Prospects for 2025
Despite modest statistics in his college career, Mykel Williams from Georgia stands out as a top prospect for the 2025 NFL Draft. With a knack for disrupting offensive plays, Williams showcases a unique blend of strength and agility. His ability to impact both the run game and pass rush makes him a valuable asset for any defense.
Another standout prospect is Will Campbell from LSU, known for his technical prowess and strategic blocking. Campbell’s ability to read defensive movements and adjust accordingly sets him apart as a reliable offensive tackle. With a focus on improving his performance in the upcoming season, Campbell aims to solidify his position as a premier blindside protector.
Challenges and Opportunities
Kelvin Banks Jr. from Texas presents a compelling case for the top offensive tackle spot in the 2025 draft. Despite his slightly shorter stature, Banks compensates with exceptional length and agility. His experience as a starter and his adeptness in both run blocking and pass protection make him a versatile and promising prospect for NFL teams.
As the 2025 NFL Draft approaches, the spotlight shifts towards defensive talents like Williams, Campbell, and Banks. With a renewed focus on the trenches, teams are gearing up to secure impactful players who can make a difference on the field.
At 6-foot-6 and 348 pounds, Walker is a force on the defensive line, showcasing both size and athleticism. Despite his massive frame, Walker possesses the agility and quickness to line up at various positions along the defensive front. In Kentucky’s defensive scheme, he is just as likely to line up at end as he is at defensive tackle. His hand speed and pass rushing skills set him apart from traditional bulky linemen.
Walker’s unique blend of size and finesse makes him a versatile three-down defender. He can either occupy blockers or make explosive plays like tackles for loss and sacks from different alignments on the field.
5. Will Johnson, CB, Michigan
Johnson, a lengthy cornerback with exceptional size, embodies the modern NFL cornerback prototype. His physical attributes allow him to effectively shut down wide receivers, whether in zone or man coverage. With his quickness, burst, and body control, Johnson excels at sticking with receivers of all sizes, making him a valuable asset in any defensive scheme.
Known as the “human hand grenade,” Graham is a disruptive force in the heart of the defense. His explosive first step, quick hands, and strength enable him to penetrate the backfield quickly, disrupting plays and forcing opponents to adjust on the fly. Despite his size and length, Graham is not easily overpowered in the run game, showcasing his versatility and impact on defense.
Starks is a versatile safety capable of lining up all over the field and making plays in various roles. His athleticism, intelligence, and tackling abil
