Let’s take a look at some of the top rankings.
With the New Orleans Saints going into their bye week, it’s a great time to see how some college football players are doing. An NFL Draft Big Board is a ranking of prospects, in this case the top 50. Each prospect is ranked by skill, production, character, academics, team fit, etc. Team need is considered when two prospects are ranked similarly, and a team must decide who they will put ahead of the other. This will be my own ranking of prospects for the 2025 NFL Draft, and hopefully, I can introduce some new players to look out for throughout the season/offseason.
