2025 NFL Draft thread - Round 1

[gonzo1105]

The Bucs met with almost all the first round CBs and had a bunch of them in for 30 visits wouldn’t surprise me if you see the first off the board here

I would hate Landon Jackson at 30.

I don’t trust Beane to make the right decisions, especially since he hinted that the trenches were not his strong suit…

These player stories sound like something from American Idol.

Except Buddy Nix slept through the Manuel pick…

I remember the end of that Panthers game thinking that we found our guy.

Sooooo all these teams aren’t going DT/DT

 

Bills must go DB/DT, or make a trade.

Unpopular opinion, Bishop is actually the Milano replacement.

Does McD want to go even smaller on defense?

So apparently Jordan Shultz said there is a lot of activity right now with the teams at the bottom of the draft 

interesting. I do have a feeling some team might be desperate to trade back into the first round for one of these scrub QBs.

This is shaping up beautifully. A lot of good CBs still available.

Still 11 picks before Bills

Keep taking Offensive Lineman people. Keep that train going.

 

Drain the names from the trenches early, get Cabeldue later, get him reps in '25, LG in '26

With a starting secondary of Benford, White (currently), Johnson, Hamlin, and Rapp if you asked where we could upgrade pass coverage the most it would be Hamlin or Rapp and Starks would do it.  Starks is certainly on the list of picks I would be happy with.

 

Hamlin is NOT the leading candidate to start at either S position. I'd argue that Bishop is in line ahead of him, and maybe even Forrest.

I think they have three viable options there that will be better next year and spending a high pick at that position two years in a row is poor resource management, imo.

 

Agreed. But that shouldn't prevent a team from drafting a long term high end starter.

Probably.

A run on QBs right now would be amazing

[JimBob2232]

Not sure i love how the board is falling here.  Might need to go DB or trade down.  Still a few good DL options - but starting to get limited. 

[billsfan714]

Corner run is coming in next 20 picks.

[MJS]

Zabel playing some Settlers of Catan! Nice!

Gotta be Starks or Amos now.  DT value not there at 30.  Get Amos and Collins in Rd. 2 ideally

Getting close to a Cook trade to move up for a 1st round rated CB.

I would expect Minnesota to get a lot of calls at 24 and it wouldn’t surprise me if the Bills-Giants worked something out if a guy the Bills don’t value is at 30 

[WhitewalkerInPhilly]

Has a single dedicated DB gone yet? There's some opportunity if the trend holds for a bit

[CNYfan]

I mocked Campbell to Bucs in the Virgil thing
