Our analysts are stacking their 2025 NFL draft boards. How do the top players at every position rank against each other?
We pulled together top-five rankings at every single position from four NFL draft analysts — Mel Kiper Jr., Jordan Reid, Matt Miller and Field Yates. How do their evaluations differ, and which players are the unanimous No. 1s at their positions? How do the analysts view Carson Beck, Shedeur Sanders, Quinn Ewers and the rest of the quarterback class? How does the wide receiver group fill out, and which schools dominate the front seven positions? Who are the top cornerbacks, and which rushers lead our analysts’ running back rankings?
Get a side-by-side look at all four experts’ positional breakdowns. Plus, we took each analyst’s overall rankings, averaged them out and came up with a consensus top-10 ranking for the 2025 class. Who makes it onto the list?
