NFL Draft 2025: Top 10 Picks and Team Needs
The 2025 NFL draft is approaching, and teams with top-10 picks are already making plans. This draft class is highlighted by a QB battle, and several teams need help at other positions. Our reporters weigh in on the early selections.
The 2024 NFL season is nearing its end, and all eyes are turning to the offseason. The 2025 NFL draft will begin on April 24, and teams with top-10 picks are studying the prospects closely and making plans for their selections. This draft class is expected to have more high-end defensive players than last April, and the battle between Miami's Cam Ward and Colorado's Shedeur Sanders for the QB1 spot is the highlight. The Tennessee Titans have the top pick for the first time since 2016, and they'll control a lot of what happens in Round 1. But the rest of the top 10 offers intrigue, too. We asked our NFL Nation reporters, who cover teams with top-10 picks, to answer one big question about the early selections. Are the Titans, Browns and Giants all leaning toward finding a new QB in the draft? Is Tom Brady going to help the Raiders in their own QB search? Will the Bears pick a defender for the first time since 2018? Let's dive in.
