It's the 2025 NFL draft. We know who is likely going first overall in quarterback Cam Ward. In fact, we have a good idea of who will go in the top three or four picks. But that's about the only certainty we'll see.
The talent level of the draft might not be the deepest but the intrigue could be. Where does Shedeur Sanders go? What will teams like the New Orleans Saints and Pittsburgh Steelers do? And will we even get Aaron Rodgers news during the draft?
See? Lots of intrigue.
USA TODAY Sports will provide the latest news, updates, stories and really dumb draft rumors in one spot just for you. Aren't we nice? Read on …
That's here. Hot off the draft presses.

The draft is always full of surprises and our draft expert Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz looks at some of the top prospects who could shock as first rounders. One of the names Middlehurst-Schwartz looks at is Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough.
He writes of Shough: "In a vacuum, Shough might seem like an odd candidate to sneak into the first round. The seventh-year senior, who was in the same recruiting class as Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields, will turn 26 early in his rookie season. And while he showed plenty of promise in his final season after transferring to Louisville, the 6-5, 219-pound signal-caller also has an extensive injury history, twice breaking his collarbone and suffering a broken fibula in previous stops at Oregon and Texas Tech."
Middlehurst-Schwartz tackles this as well and his top qualifier are the New York Giants. He notes: "For all of the hyperbole that surrounds the draft every year, few teams typically enter the event with a true mandate. But in keeping coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen for another year, co-owner John Mara made explicit that he's "just about run out of patience" and expects the current brain trust to find a quarterback of the future."
