The Eagles are champions, and with the Super Bowl behind us, all eyes will turn toward the 2025 NFL draft. The first day will feature only the first round, the second day will feature the second and third rounds, and the draft will conclude with the final four rounds on the third day.
This year, the NFL Draft will begin at Lambeau Field in the Titletown district in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
With the first round just hours away, we're looking at the history of the No. 32 overall pick.
Legette underwent surgery to address a lingering issue he played through during the 2024 campaign. The first-rounder is coming off an underwhelming rookie campaign, having recorded 49 catches for 497 yards and four touchdowns on 87 targets across 16 regular-season appearances.
Porter totaled 70 tackles (53 solo) and seven pass defenses, including an interception, over 16 regular-season contests in 2024. Porter solidified a starting role in his second year as a pro, playing at least 95 percent of Pittsburgh's defensive snaps in 15 of his 16 games. The Penn State product improved upon his rookie numbers in tackles but had three fewer defensed passes.
Cine was selected by Minnesota 32nd overall in the 2022 draft and joined the Bills' practice squad after being released by the Vikings last summer. He broke his leg during his rookie season and was limited to playing 10 defensive snaps in 10 games over his two years in Minnesota.
The 24-year-old from Haiti is listed at 6-foot-2 and 199 pounds and is a low-risk signing after a decorated college career at Georgia. Cine earned defensive MVP honors in Georgia’s 33-18 win over Alabama in the national championship game in the 2021 season.
A 2021 first-round pick of the Buccaneers, Tryon-Shoyinka saw his snap count reduce in each of his final two seasons with Tampa Bay, culminating in a career-low 24 tackles (15 solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 15 regular-season appearances in 2024.
Edwards-Helaire started the 2024 season on the Chiefs' reserve/non-football illness list. He was activated from the NFI list Oct. 15 but was a healthy scratch for the next nine games and was ultimately waived by Kansas City in mid-December. After pondering retirement, he signed with the Saints' practice squad two days later and was elevated for the final two games of the regular season, during which he logged 13 carries for 46 yards while adding three catches (on five targets) for 24 yards. By signing a future contract, Edwards-Helaire will be on the Saints' 90-man roster for the start of the new league year, March 12.
Harry spent the offseason with Minnesota and landed on the Vikings' practice squad to start the season. He was later cut and signed with Seattle in early November. Harry hasn't caught a regular-season pass since 2022 with Chicago. The 2019 first-round pick most recently appeared in nine games with the Vikings in 2023, failing to record a stat across 69 total snaps (20 offensive and 49 on special teams).
Jackson, the most accomplished No. 32 overall pick in NFL history, signed a five-year, reported $260 million deal during the 2023 offseason, making him the league's highest-paid player. According to ESPN Stats & Info, Jackson has been the 8th quarterback since the 1970 merger, earning three or more first-team All-Pro selections. Jackson's other first-team All-Pro selections came in 2019 and 2023.
Ramczyk announced his retirement from the NFL last week.
The 32nd overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, Ramczyk injured his knee in Week 14 of the 2023 season and was never medically cleared to play again, missing the entirety of the 2024 campaign. Before the injury, Ramczyk was one of the best right tackles in the league, earning first-team All-Pro honors once and second-team All-Pro twice. He started all 101 games he appeared in during his seven seasons with the Saints.
Ogbah finished the 2024 regular season with 49 tackles (27 solo), 5.0 sacks, two pass defenses (including one interception), and one forced fumble across 16 games. Ogbah tied veteran Calais Campbell for the third-most sacks on the Dolphins behind Zach Sieler (10.0) and Chop Robinson (6.0). Ogbah has logged 5.0 sacks in back-to-back seasons, and his 49 combined tackles were his most since his rookie year in 2016 with the Browns (53).
Brown appeared in all 17 games for the Jaguars last year and recorded a career-high 57 tackles and two sacks across 653 defensive snaps. The eighth-year pro has been a productive defensive tackle with New England, New Orleans, and Jacksonville.
