I'm not super high on him. I'm sure a lot are. He, to me, is just a measurables guy that got away with it in college. We'll see but I think he is a 1-2 year project. Hopefully he isn't a Burks but I can def. see it.

McMillan is faster, and has better short area quickness than Burks had coming out of Arkansas. I also think he is more versatile because of it with the ability to line up at X, Y, or the Slot. I like him as a prospect more than Golden. That's just me though.

With the 17th pick the Cincinnati Bengals select Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona.

 

That's right folks. The Bengals are building a dynasty on nothing but WRs. Defense? Unneccessary. Mike Brown will have to open his famously large checkbook to pay for a new scoreboard that can fit triple digits on the home side. Offensive line? Burrow's bones and ligaments will be considered optional with this cast of weapons.

 

After looking at the calendar, the Bengals are revising their selection. With the 17th pick they select Will Campbell, OT, LSU. The Seahawks @Logic  are on the clock.

 

This is an absolute dream scenario for Cincy. We have needs all across the roster but the biggest priority has to be protecting Burrow who has already missed basically two seasons with injuries.

 

One lingering concern with Campbell is he may be a more natural guard at the next level. But in Cincy that's fine. We have Orlando Brown to man LT and our 2024 1st rounder Amarius Mims slated to be the RT. So Campbell can start his career in his more natural position with upside to transition to LT in the future. This is a no brainer pick getting a top 10 prospect at a position of need who happened to slide.

With the 18th pick in the 2025 TSW Mock Draft, the Seattle Seahawks select Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona.

Interior offensive line is far and away our biggest need, but with two 2nd and two 3rd round picks, we feel we can wait and still find good players there. 

 

Meanwhile, after trading away DK Metcalf, we're thrilled to add an imposing outside receiver with tremendous size and athletic ability to replace him. After JSN, our only real receivers of note are Cooper Kupp and Marquez Valdez Scantling. Both are on the wrong side of 30, and neither are dynamic enough at this stage in their careers to keep us from taking a prospect with as high a ceiling as McMillan. Metcalf and Lockett? Meet McMillan and Smith-Njigba.

The value was great, the player is dynamic, and the need is there. John Schneider and Mike McDonald are high-fiving in the Seahawks war room.

@Bill from NYC and the Tampa Bay Baker-neers are now on the clock.

I don't see him as at all similar to Burks. I don't get that comparison at all. Burks was a big slot who was a beast with ball in hand. While Tet can definitely move around the formation he is much more of a true outside guy with the body control and footwork to make the most of small spaces on the boundary. Think deeper separation is a fair question. But if I had to come up with a pro comp it's Dez Bryant.

With Pick #19, The TB Bucs are probably going to upset some TBD Fans, and select Landon Jackson, Edge - Arkansas.

 

In 2023 I saw him live. He recorded 11 tackles (7 solo) and 3 1/2 sacks. this against Alabama and he hasn't slowed down. I think that the kid will continue to improve and will be a future star. 

 

The Broncos and @warrior9are on the clock.

I had never even thought Dez when I  watched him. That's a quality take. I think they have a similar run after the catch ability, and that grit to their game. I see a guy similar to Tee Higgins, especially when the ball is in the air.

I can see him here...for a while he was slated to be the first WR off the board, but I think he slides in the late teens early 20's personally, and Seattle is a where I think he has a strong chance to go.

I will refer everyone to my mock version # 2 where I had McMillan going 18th and people told me that he was going too late. Sometimes you have to trust your evaluations of guys versus what you see online when everyone had him going 4 or 5 for the longest time

With the 20th pick in the 2025 TSW Mock Draft, the Denver Broncos select Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan

Tempted to go Hampton here but the Broncos play in a division with Jim Harbaugh and Andy Reid. Grant is a massive human that can clog the middle as well as defend passes. He had 10 passes defended over the last 2 years. Beefing up the trenches in this division for a team that is close to competing for a deep playoff run makes a lot of sense here. Their top tier defense just got more tough. 

 

The Steelers and @frostbitmicare on the clock

You aren’t going to make a lot of friends around here with that pick

He would've gone next anyway.

With the 21st pick of TSW 2025 Mock Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers select Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina.

 

Nick will join Minkah Fitzpatrick on the back end of our Defense, to go along with Joey Porter jr and Darrius Slay to give us the best secondary in the league.

 

@LEBills And the Chargers are on the clock.

As the Raiders acting GM in this one I resent that lol  

 

I already have my pick made. Just waiting on Jacksonville. But it will shake some up for sure 😉

With the 6th pick of the 2025 NFL draft the Oak...uh ..Los Ange...er...LAS VEGAS RAIDERS SELECT:

 

Emeka Egbuka, WR, THE Ohio State.

 

There were so many picks here I could have made. The Raider roster is just that void of talent. Had this been a draft with trades I would have included myself in the growing list of teams willing to trade out!

 

Ashton Jeanty was strongly considered and knowing how Pete Carroll loves running the ball, it wouldn't shock me if he is the pick here. However if I'm picking a RB in the top 10, he better be legitimately 'generational'. Jeanty is in the very good to potentially great category just below that IMO. Finding a RB can wait in this draft. It's deep. A WR? Now there's some value.

 

Sanders here would make some sense as well, however I hate the destination for a player with maturity concerns. And I'm not convinced there isn't a QB that can be had later or next season that has just as much upside 

 

And while personally I like other WRs more than Egbuka, namely Golden and McMillan, I see a Temu DK Metcalf/JSN hybrid with Egbuka. Something I think Carroll won't pass on if WR is the pick. Is 6 a reach for him? Absolutely. But no franchise has the reputation of reaching for players that the Raiders do...no matter who is making the pick.

 

The Jersey Jets and @DJBare on the clock. 

 

However with how often their fans cling to that Super Bowl III win, we are unsure if they can tell time.😂😂😂

 

No way the son of Al Davis would reach on a solid all around WR (projected more to slot but we know how those slot projections go...like with that LSU x Minn WR) from Ohio St when an absolute BURNER from Texas who plays on the boundary is just sitting there!!! Golden would be the pick if they go WR, right? No way the RAIDERS reach on a good all around guy when a speed demon is available. 

 

This has already been commented on, yes?
