2025 Offensive players to keep an eye one. QB is a deep class with arguably 5 1st rounders (not that the league will allow that) might be able to inject some White talent back into the league. Some players may return next season but this is my best effort at providing the initial prospect list. I tried not to include any juniors. It's still a bit of challenge since I believe all players still have an additional scamdemic year. I believe this will end in 2026.

Thanks for the list Leonardfan! This is why i visited CF in the first place...

Under the radar DB Tanner Volk from D2 Central Washington; slipped under the cracks. VIDEO-GAME STATS 13 INTs & Tackles 124! !! last season! 5 more than any player at any level! Listed at 6-1" only 175lbs always looking for more future White DBs in the NFL ; Harrison Smith can't play forever. Pickings have been slim ; but the uptick is worth the watch!
...and WR Jack Studer another D2 stand out; thanks will check em out!

Guess should not be too surprised former Walk-on Arkansas Corner Back Hudson Clark did not make the list ; he's been an under dog his entire career.

Toledo DB Maxen Hook was to be in the next phase/post in "2024 DB" Thread pics.

Only 2 DB's were selected in the '24 NFL Draft; BUT ...BOTH went in the 2nd Round (Dejean ; Bishop). Wonder how many DB's might get taken in the 2025 Draft?? Would think Hunter Wohler has late 2nd Round potential ; if not then ; a Day 2 pick at the very least!

As said in the "2024 WR" thread ..will be hard to duplicate (Pearsall; McConkey ; McCaffrey) in the first 3 Rounds.

RB's Cam Skattebo is versatile enough to land on a 53 man NFL Roster.
Had kinda hoped Idaho-native Lan Larison (FCS UC-Davis) would Transfer to FBS Boise State or Wazzu.....but that didn't stop Dylan Laube from being taken( 6th round/Raiders) from FCS New Hampshire.

Junior Left Tackle Will Campbell (LSU) is a Projected Top 10 pick in the NFL

I will be watching Will Campbell. Just didn't want to throw him on the list since he is a junior. Glad he will be protecting Nussmeier!

Yes indeed! Understood ....that can get tricky!

Just found this Top-40 ( 45 ) big board for the 2025 NFL Draft.

Ewers and Beck are top 10 right now. Only the caste logic seeping into the QB position is causing them both to be downgraded in the sports media's eyes. Connor Weigman as a 1st rounder is a little bizarre just because he has not played much.

 

[Gator Dad]

I spent some time looking at "mainstream" sports sites for their predictions on the 2025 draft. Mason Graham is getting a lot of respect - several mock drafts have him going at #2 or #3 overall. Jack Sawyer is projected as a 1st rounder on most lists. If Cam Skattebo keeps tearing it up, it'll be interesting to see if it translates to a rise in his draft stock as it should.

As far as the QB situation, five names come up over and over as first-rounders. Two of them are Carson Beck and Quinn Ewers . The other three are Shedeur Sanders , Cam Ward , and Jalen Milroe . Jaxson Dart and Garrett Nussmeier's names occasionally come up as second-rounders. No other of our QBs appear until the later rounds.

 

[Freethinker]

Even if Sanders has the talent to be a quality NFL quarterback, he’s a primadonna who will be locker room poison. Since he will get picked high by someone, I’m hoping that he goes to the Browns, or another black abyss like the Panthers. I think ESPN actually predicted that with some mock posted behind their paywall earlier.

Expect a good chance for Sanders to holdout/refuse to be drafted by a bad team. Wouldn’t even be surprised if he raises media/PR hell partially in attempt to fall in the draft.

 

[Leonardfan]

Sanders will go to the Raiders unfortunately. Davis is a cuck, Brady is a "mentor" to him and Pierce wants a quota.

 

[jimmyjerapolo]

Colorado's entire program is designed to inflate Shadeur's numbers as much as possible. They have the 5th most pass attempts in the country and the 4th lowest rushing total, in other words they use short passes in lieu of a run game to boost Shadeur's numbers. They've also gone all in on WR with several 4-star transfers and of course the 5-star Travis Hunter while Coach Prime neglects the rest of the roster.

On tape, you'll find Shadeur is shockingly plodding given his pedigree and holds onto the ball way too long. He was the most sacked QB in the nation last year and is on a similar trajectory this year (9 carries for -50 yards vs KSU) despite adding a 5 start OT and other transfers on the OL. It doesn't matter if CU continues to play losing football as long as Pat Shurmer gets the kid his numbers, that is clearly the objective right now and I have to give Deion credit for grifting his son's draft stock well beyond what it would normally be. Not saying he can't play at all but much like the Buffaloes you're getting a product that is mostly built on hype.

Daddy ball. Curious to see how long Sanders lasts once his nepo-son is no longer with the program.

 

[Leonardfan]

I saw an interview with Jim Nagy - the Senior Bowl ring leader stating that Diego Pavia is not viewed as a draftable QB by the league. This is less than two years after all the "experts" anointed Bryce Young as the consensus #1 QB. Both play in the same conference - Young was a plug and play system QB - undersized, marginal athleticism, average at best arm strength. Magically two years later Pavia who is better in every way than Young was is being written off despite being the catalyst for perennial SEC doormat Vanderbilt.

Kinda how all the Black Smurf return men never get criticized but goys like Covey are treated like Rudy.

Also seems a bit early and negative to be ripping on Pavia’s Draft Stock during a magical season for Vandy. On par for Nagy though.

 

[Gator Dad]

Pavia being labeled as not draftable at all is the kind of one-dimensional, overly negative critique from the so-called "experts" that only ever seems to be pointed at athletes with low melanin content. At least let the season play out before passing end-all type judgements.

 

[Gator Dad]

Now all the self-proclaimed draft "experts" are attacking Ewers over one bad game and saying he should fall out of the 1st round, and the 2nd, and the 3rd, as if all the things he's previously achieved on the gridiron have suddenly and magically ceased to exist. Trash a good QB after one bad game, hype a mediocre QB to the skies after one good game. That's the way it works in modern, short attention span, ten-second soundbyte Soviet Amerika and its "the Endless Present is all that matters, screw learning from the past, screw planning for the future" ideology. And of course the trashed QBs are always those of low melanin content, and the hyped ones always of high melanin content.

That about sums it up. I have to work myself to avoid being swept in all the short term thinking that plagues modern society.

 

[jphoss]

in the last four games, the Alabama quota has thrown three touchdowns to five interceptions, yet he has received not nearly the criticism that ewers has again displaying the rampant anti white agenda

Well stated. It's absurd how the low IQ retards that encompass the self anointed draft "expert" realm, the typical DWFs, the rabidly racist blacks that want to take over the QB position all do there best to bury and attack White QBs. This is blatantly obvious to anyone with a mind not compromised by the caste system. Ewers body of work over the past three seasons has been near elite and the only blemish is really his injuries. He's certainly a 1st round pick if Trey Lance, Justin Fields, Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, Anthony Richardson etc. have all been.

 

[Gator Dad]

I predict that Sanders will have an NFL career similar to that of another Colorado quarterback: Kordell Stewart.

 

[Leonardfan]

Senior Bowl invites have started to go out. Ohio St. Center Seth McLaughlin is one of the first invites. UCONN OT Chase Lundt also invited.

 

[jimmyjerapolo]

With the decline of Carson Beck and Ewers this season, we are eyeing what could be the blackest 1st round for QBs ever. This is viewed as a weaker QB class, but Cam Ward and Shadeur are consensus QB1 and QB2 and Milroe may slip into the latter end of the 1st, presumably as a Jalen Hurts type project. Ewers and Beck can still salvage their draft stock but as it stands now they might be day 2 picks.

In my opinion, this is probably a good thing. Ward and Shadeur are not talented enough to succeed on bottom feeding franchises, and they are both heading in that direction. Ewers/Beck/Nussmeier will hopefully have a chance to sit behind a veteran for a few years on a competent organization. The Rams are the most obvious candidate to take a white QB on day 2 with Stafford approaching 40. I'd be shocked if the Colts don't take someone, even if they decide to give Richardson another shot. I'd also keep an eye on Miami. All 3 would be decent landing spots as far as coaching is concerned.

With a "generational" QB struggling because his playing style is not compatible with the NFL despite the NFLs efforts to dumb down the game and manipulate the rules to give the offense all the advantages, to the "most athletic QB ever" flaming out, to the "sure thing" Bryce Young and a top 3 QB bust of all time Trey Lance I wonder if the league will at all pump the breaks on the black QB agenda. Both Ward and Sanders are both like Williams in that they hold onto the ball to long many times and try to force something to happen. Again, we see that works in college to some extent but this year the NFL seems to have somewhat figured out these QBs.

It's interesting that guys like Jaxson Dart (his UGA performance made me a believer), Riley Leonard - dual threat that resembles Josh Allen, Will Howard - a real dark horse at this point because he played well at both KSU and Ohio State and Kurtis Rourke are getting next to no press right now. I'd expect all of those guys to be at the Senior Bowl. Have to say that Carson Beck has been a huge disappointment this year and how much of that is on him instead of the supporting cast is really my only question. He lost two elite playmakers in Bowers and McConkey and Georgia has not done much to revamp the offense (they should have run alot more 2 TE sets with Delp and Yurosek). Beck certainly has all the tools and I would say he is a 3rd round QB right now.

Ewers and Nussmeier both my end up stating in school. I think Ewers declares (he should as he is a 1st round talent with a Manning behind him on the depth chart) and Nussmeier comes back to LSU. Nussmeier could have a Burrow like jump in year 2 as a starter.

 

[Leonardfan]

NDSU OL Grey Zabel invited.

A flurry of mediocre blacks from underperforming schools now getting invites now.

 

[Leonardfan]

Watching the ND game yesterday QB Riley Leonard walked out during the senior day celebrations along with TE Mitchell Evans, DT Rylie Mills and LB Jack Kiser. All 4 of these players should be drafted within the first 4 rounds next year. Leonard with a strong end to the season should elevate himself into the 1st round conversation as he is a "dual threat" and shows flashes reminiscent of Josh Allen.
