Ashton Jeanty Goes To Raiders At No. 6 Overall
Ashton Jeanty with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. The Raiders were connected to Jeanty all along as they looked for a true RB1 in their backfield. Jeanty was the Heisman Trophy runner-up and is a true workhorse with elite game-breaking ability and tackle-breaking abilities. Ball security will be key for Jeanty heading to the next level, but he should be an immediate impact player for the Raiders backfield and in fantasy. Veteran Raheem Mostert will back him up in Vegas in his first year in the NFL. Jeanty is built like a body builder and has been compared to Emmitt Smith. He has future All-Pro talent and has the chops to become one of the next faces of the NFL if he can avoid serious injuries. Jeanty will be a top-three selection in rookie-only drafts this fall.Source: NFL.com
The Las Vegas Raiders selected Boise State running back Browns Take Mason Graham At Fifth Overall In 2025 NFL Draft
Source: NFL.com
The Cleveland Browns selected Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. Cleveland came into Thursday evening with the No. 2 overall pick, but they completed a blockbuster deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars to move down to No. 5. Graham is a two-time All-American from Los Angeles and was also a star wrestler in high school. The 21-year-old is versatile and disruptive, although his numbers didn't exactly stand out at the collegiate level. Graham has the ability to make tackles everywhere and has strong hands at the point of contact. The Browns will now try to school him up as a pure pass-rusher to help out Myles Garrett on the outside. If Graham develops into more of a pure pass-rusher, Cleveland will be very satisfied with his pick after dropping back several spots for more draft capital.Patriots Select Will Campbell At Fourth Overall
Drake Maye. There are concerns about Campbell's arm length as he heads to the next level, but he can make up for it with elite athleticism. Campbell has always been a left tackle in his football career and is expected to stick at the position as he heads to the NFL to protect Maye's blind side. The 21-year-old is excellent in run protection as well as protecting the quarterback. The Louisiana native stands at 6-foot-6, 319 pounds. Despite having short arm, Campbell has elite hands and uses them as well as anybody in this draft at the position. If he stays healthy, Campbell should be a staple for the Pats on the left side of the O-line.Source: NFL.com
The New England Patriots selected LSU offensive tackle Will Campbell with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. This one was expected as the Patriots look to bolster their offensive line in front of young quarterback Giants Draft Abdul Carter At Third Overall
Source: NFL.com
The New York Giants selected Penn State defensive end Abdul Carter with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. Carter was hands down the best defensive prospect in this year's draft class and was a unanimous All-American selection. He lived in opponent's backfield and led FBS with 23.5 tackles for loss in 2024. Carter will combine with Kayvon Thibodeaux and Brian Burns for the Giants to boost their pass rush moving forward in a division that includes the reigning Super Bowl-champion Philadelphia Eagles. Carter has an amazing first step off the line as he rushes the passer and has a high motor. Despite dealing with several injuries during the pre-draft process -- he didn't require surgery for his foot -- the 21-year-old didn't fall outside of the top five picks this year. Carter could make the kind of immediate impact that Micah Parsons did in Dallas.Jaguars Trade Up To Select Travis Hunter At Second Overall

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport lists the Carolina Panthers, Miami Dolphins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks as some teams open to/discussing trading back in the first round of the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night.

The Miami Herald's Omar Kelly reports that the Miami Dolphins have called multiple teams ahead of the first round of the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night to let them know that they are willing to trade down out of the No. 13 overall pick, depending on how the board falls. It has been the norm for the Dolphins while general manager Chris Grier has been with the franchise. Going into last year's draft, Grier had made more trades since 2019 than any other executive. The Dolphins are attempting to land more picks in the second round on Friday night as they look to beef up their offensive and defensive lines and their secondary, specifically. As things stand right now, Miami has only two picks in Rounds 2 and 3 combined, so don't be surprised if they trade out of the first round entirely on Thursday night.Patriots Linked To Will Campbell

The biggest knock on Campbell as a potential bust at the next level is due to his short arms for an offensive lineman.Source: ESPN.com - Jeremy Fowler
New England Patriots brass traveled to Louisiana in recent days to visit with LSU offensive lineman Will Campbell, sources told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The Patriots have been linked to the All-American tackle with their No. 4 overall pick in this year's NFL draft and did more homework on him late in the process. The Patriots have been fielding calls to trade out of the fourth overall pick in the days leading up to the first round on Thursday night, but if they hold onto the pick and both Colorado two-way star Omarion Hampton Could Slide To Steelers On Thursday Night

Kirk Cousins Likely To Wait Until Saturday To Waive No-Trade Clause
Kirk Cousins could watch the first round of this year's NFL draft on Thursday night to see what the QB landscape looks like before waiving his no-trade clause on Friday to allow for a possible trade. However, Underdog's James Palmer writes that it seems more and more likely that Cousins could be waiting to see how the second round plays out on Friday night before making any decisions. The 36-year-old veteran signal-caller has made it clear that he wants to be a starter elsewhere over serving as Michael Penix Jr.'s backup in 2025. After Penix took over for the struggling Cousins late last year, the veteran QB prefers to be traded to a team that doesn't have a young up-and-coming signal-caller on the roster already. The Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings have been mentioned as the three most likely candidates to consider trading for Cousins during the draft.Source: Underdog - James Palmer
