Mock Draft [Simulators] Compilation Thread - 2025 NFL Draft (2 Viewers)

New simulation. Lots of trading back. Addressing lots of position groups, late lottery ticket QB in Tyler Shough. Added three 2nd day picks for 2026 to help further build the young core of the roster.

RD1. Mike Green EDGE Marshall. For me, it's always been between TMac & Mike Green at 9. But as of late, Mike Green has separated a bit & become my favorite prospect. Straight up, Mike Green is Khalil Mack. That pass rush repertoire & relentless 300mph pressure is exactly what our D desperately needs. If we end up hiring Brandon Staley as our DC, Mike Green instantly addresses a must have position & becomes a foundational building block of his 34 scheme.

RD2. Donavon Ezieruaku EDGE BCU. Love, & always will love Cam Jordan! But his best days are unfortunately behind him. Respect to the rest of our EDGE rushers, but not a one of those dudes is starter material. Granderson’s good, but he’s prob better as a high end rotational player. Ezieruaku, like Green, brings explosive flaming bat out of hell pressure in pursuit of the ball carrier. Pairing Ezieruaku w/Mike Green would/could potentially solve our pass rush woes in a single draft class. Ezieruaku consistently shows a ton bend & speed to power on true passing downs. Donavan Ezieruaku reminds me of Harold Landry.

RD3. Alfred Collins IDL/NT Texas. Collins could quietly be the best NT available in the class. A Staley hire would make a guy like Collins even more valuable. The man is a legit force vs the run & does a ton of the dirty work for the playmakers around him. He also flashes pass rush ability w/a nasty bullrush & a pretty good burst off the snap. Bresee & i think Cam would/could be 5T DEs w/Collins manning the nose. Philla won the SB w/D, not O, & im pretty sure Kellen Moore knows it. If there was a year to load up & strengthen the defensive trenches, it’s this one. I think Mike Green, Donavon Ezieruaku, & Alfred Collins could solve both our run & pass rush issues in a single draft class.

RD3. Anthony Belton OT NC ST. This dude is BIG at 6’5 350ish! Belton has prototypical size & length at the position. This dude is old school 1980’s nasty. A bully type who mauls defenders out the plays in the run & pass. If Penning fails to improve & solidify himself at the position, or if we decide against his 5th year option, Belton will already be in house to replace Penning. Maybe they try Penning at OG & he’s a better fit. If so, then Belton can slide in & compete to start opposite Fuaga.

RD4 Terrance Ferguson TE Oregon. We desperately need a contested catch, chain moving, RZ mismatch & gotta have the catch presence on O, & Ferguson has the potential to be that type of guy at TE. Ferguson blocks, plays inline, lines up out wide, in the slot & in the backfield. He has dependable hands & will kill you in the seams. Ferguson Reminds me a lot of Cole Kmet.

RD4. Tai Fulton WR Maryland. We need more talent at the WR position w/Olave & Rashid seemingly always injured. Fulton is a long limbed playmaker w/excellent hands & RAC ability. This dude has a ton of twitch to his game & can beat coverage w/his route running as well as flat out speed. Fulton is kind of a cross between Olave & Rashid. Im a big fan of Fulton. He reminds me of Stefon Diggs.

RD6. Corey Kiner RB Cincinnati. Usually i go w/Lequint Allen or Cam Skattaboo, but another RB im super hyped on is Corey Kiner. The dude may be short, but he’s thick & densely built. Love the slashing, one cut power back style Kiner runs with. Though he wasnt super involved in the passing game at Cinci, he has good hands & has untapped potential as a receiver. Just watch this dude when you can. His film is a fun watch. As a runner, Corey Kiner reminds me a ton of Ray Rice.

RD7. Glendon Miller S Maryland. At the end of 23 & onto the beginning of the 24 season, Miller was developing into a true ballhawk. He still has that in his skillset, but Miller, like the rest of the Maryland D, fell off to end the year. Miller has size & length in coverage, & his a willing run defender. But make no mistake, his specialty is coverage. Unfortunately, Maryland sucked last year & played from behind in nearly every game to close the year. But in games where the D forced opponents to pass, Miller shinned in coverage. Glendon Miller reminds me of Grant Delpit.

RD7. Dan Jackson S Georgia. Like Mike Green, Dan Jackson is one of my “guys” & i pick him in almost every mock i do. If the GA D was the Avengers, Dan Jackson would be Hawkeye. He may not have the superpowers the rest of the team has, but Jackson’s reliable, does his job at a high level, & makes the plays that come his way. In my opinion, he has a lot of untapped playmaking & ballhawk ability. Like he showed at GA, Dan Jackson is the type guy that out hustles, works & ultimately beats out guys to be the starter. I believe that for a Day3 guy, Jackson has the potential to work his way into a starting line up. He reminds of Alohi Gilman.

I really like Mike Green. I'm not sure I'd take him at 9, but that might be were he ascends to.

I've started drafting Collins more often in my mocks. I really started to address the NT position with the thought of moving to a 3-4 and kicking Bresee to a DE in a 3-4. So Collins makes sense, I also like drafting Black later. I think we need to put some legit draft capital and effort to revamp size/physicality on the D-lilne. I'd almost double dip with Collins early and Black later.

Belton is another player I really like. I read an article that he has the heaviest hands in the draft, then when you watch the tape you see it. He stops guys in their tracks with those hands. I'd like to see us sign Becton and play him at RG, then draft Belton and play him at LG. The O-line would be Fuaga/Belton/McCoy/Becton/Penning.

I started drafted Ferguson quite a bit since he's a complete TE. I like to take Fannin Jr. early and Ferguson later.

I recently started drafting Glendon Miller later since we always seem to add at least 1 DB per draft and it makes sense.
 
In my dreams.

Deone Walker as DE opposite of Bresee
NT with Black
Mike Green as pass rushing LB
Higgins and Mondon to work with Werner as ILB's and OLB (I think Mondon would be great opposite of Green)
New RT that is massive for run game and with average pass protection so we can push Penning inside
Ratledge to serve opposite OG of Penning
Majors is a great backup C for McCoy
Zone specializing CB
Skattebo so we can move on from often injured Miller or Kamara when begins producing little cause of age
Lachey is my sleeper TE. I think he's 1 of the best in this draft
Bech will be a good WR in this league and can replace Olave at some point.

Best of all : FOUR 2nd round picks to assist in ammo so that the OC can trade up to draft his son in 2026.

Fully retooled front 7 D, full retooled Oline... man I love this draft.

I know a lot of people are unfamiliar with Lachey and I've read a lot of inconsistent scouting reports. Some saying he sucks at separation (which ive seen multiple times to know that report is way off). This is the most accurate one I can find. (Key Note : He will excel most in an offense that splits him out at X and Z as well as traditional TE lineup, downside is blocking) https://kadesdraftroom.com/2025-nfl-draft-scouting-report-luke-lachey-tight-end-university-of-iowa/
