[ASFN Admin]

NFL Draft week is finally here, and by the time it's over after all seven rounds, NFL teams will have (hopefully) added more depth to their rosters while the top-257 players will make the jump to the pros.

So ahead of the first day of the 2025 NFL Draft on Thursday, For The Win is here with some first-round predictions. Specifically, we're attempting to predict the top-10 NFL Draft picks Thursday. Of course, as much as we wish we could, we can't actually predict the future, but that's never stopped us from trying.

FINAL NFL MOCK DRAFT:Saints trade for Shedeur Sanders, Giants find their QB

Here are For The Win's predictions for the top-10 NFL Draft picks in 2025.

2025 NFL Draft predictions for the top-10 picks​

1. Tennessee Titans: Cam Ward
2. Cleveland Browns: Travis Hunter
3. New York Giants: Abdul Carter
4. New Orleans Saints (via New England Patriots): Shedeur Sanders
5. Jacksonville Jaguars: Mason Graham
6. Las Vegas Raiders: Ashton Jeanty
7. New York Jets: Armand Membou
8. Chicago Bears (via Carolina Panthers): Tyler Warren
9. New England Patriots: Will Campbell
10. Carolina Panthers: Jalon Walker

Shedeur at No. 4? Yep, because I’m predicting the Saints panic and cut the line to ensure no one else gets the other viable year one starter this season. It’ll be pricey, but it will keep New Orleans fans from 17 games of Spencer Rattler snaps and, therefore, worth it. — Christian D'Andrea

1. Tennessee Titans: Cam Ward
2. Cleveland Browns: Travis Hunter
3. New York Giants: Abdul Carter
4. New England Patriots: Mason Graham
5. Jacksonville Jaguars: Will Campbell
6. Las Vegas Raiders: Shedeur Sanders
7. New York Jets: Armand Membou
8. Carolina Panthers: Will Johnson
9. New Orleans Saints: Kelvin Banks Jr.
10. Chicago Bears: Ashton Jeanty

The Raiders get their flashy Shedeur pick, Ben Johnson gets his desired superstar young running back, and everyone else actually addresses meaningful foundational needs that aren’t luxuries. — Robert Zeglinski
