Round 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft is in the books. The drama started early as the Cleveland Browns traded out of the number two pick with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who selected Colorado WR/CB Travis Hunter. As we head into rounds 2 and 3, there just so happens to be another Colorado Buffalo on the board – Hunter’s former QB Shedeur Sanders, who will continue to dominate the headlines leading into tonight.

Where will Sanders land? And what will the Steelers do with their 3rd round pick? Here are my best guesses.

Round 2

33. Cleveland Browns – Treyveon Henderson, RB, Ohio State

34. Houston Texans (via NYG) – Aireontae Ersery, OT, Minnesota

35. Tennessee Titans – Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa State

36. Cleveland Browns (via JAX) – Luther Burden III, WR, Missouri

37. Las Vegas Raiders – Will Johnson, CB, Michigan

38. New England Patriots – Donovan Ezeiruaku, EDGE, Boston College

39. Chicago Bears (via CAR) – Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina

40. New Orleans Saints – Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado

41. Chicago Bears – Ozzy Trapilo, OT, Boston College

42. New York Jets – Mason Taylor, TE, LSU

46. Los Angeles Rams (via ATL) – Shavon Revel, CB, East Carolina

47. Arizona Cardinals – Mike Green, EDGE, Marshall

48. Miami Dolphins – Azareye’h Thomas, CB, Florida State

49. Cincinnati Bengals – Xavier Watts, S, Notre Dame

50. Seattle Seahawks – Nic Scourton, EDGE, Texas A&M

51. Denver Broncos – Jaylin Noel, WR, Iowa State

58. Houston Texans – Jaylen Royals, WR, Utah State

59. Baltimore Ravens – Tate Ratledge, OG, Georgia

60. Detroit Lions – Princely Umanmielen, EDGE, Ole Miss

61. Washington Commanders – J.T. Tuimoloau, EDGE, Ohio State

62. Buffalo Bills – Darius Alexander, DT, Toledo

63. Kansas City Chiefs – TJ Sanders, DT, South Carolina

64. Philadelphia Eagles – Wyatt Milum, OG, West Virginia

Round 3

65. New York Giants – Marcus Mbow, OT, Purdue

66. Kansas City Chiefs – Kaleb Johnson, RB, Iowa

67. Cleveland Browns – Tyler Shough, QB, Louisville

68. Las Vegas Raiders – Tre Harris, WR, Ole Miss

69. New England Patriots – Jack Bech, WR, TCU

70. Jacksonville Jaguars – Elijah Arroyo, TE, Miami

71. New Orleans Saints – Kyle Williams, WR, Washington State

72. Chicago Bears – DJ Giddens, RB, Kansas State

73. New York Jets – Shemar Turner, DT, Texas A&M

74. Carolina Panthers – Andrew Mukuba, S, Texas

75. San Francisco 49ers – Omarr Norman-Lott, DT, Tennessee

76. Dallas Cowboys – Elic Ayomanor, WR, Stanford

77. New England Patriots – Harold Fannin Jr., TE, Bowling Green

78. Arizona Cardinals – Tory Horton, WR, Colorado State

79. Houston Texans, Jared Wilson, C, Georgia

80. Indianapolis Colts – Barrett Carter, LB, Clemson

81. Cincinnati Bengals – CJ West, DT, Indiana

82. Seattle Seahawks – Terrence Ferguson, TE, Oregon

83. Pittsburgh Steelers – Will Howard, QB, Ohio State

After passing on a signal-caller in round 1, the Steelers add to their room with the reigning National Championship-winning quarterback. Howard has the size and mobility the black and gold will covet – and I’ve heard the interest is very real. This could also be a running back, but it’s a deep class. I’d anticipate Virginia Tech RB Bhayshul Tuten, UCF RB RJ Harvey, and Texas RB Jaydon Blue will be in the conversation, but my best bet is one will fall into their laps in round 4.

84. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Jordan Burch, EDGE, Oregon

85. Denver Broncos – Cam Skattebo, RB, Arizona State

86. Los Angeles Chargers – Gunnar Helm, TE, Texas

87. Green Bay Packers – Bradyn Swinson, EDGE, LSU

88. Jacksonville Jaguars – Deone Walker, DT, Kentucky

89. Houston Texans – JJ Pegues, DT, Ole Miss

90. Los Angeles Rams – Ashton Gillotte, EDGE, Louisville

91. Baltimore Ravens – Darien Porter, CB, Iowa State

92. Seattle Seahawks – Jacob Parrish, CB, Kansas State

93. New Orleans Saints – Kyle Kennard, EDGE, South Carolina

94. Cleveland Browns – Emery Jones, OT, LSU

95. Kansas City Chiefs – Miles Frazier, OG, LSU

96. Philadelphia Eagles – Joshua Farmer, DT, Florida State

97. Minnesota Vikings – Kevin Winston Jr., S, Penn State

98. Miami Dolphins – Cameron Williams, OT, Texas

99. Houston Texans – Elijah Roberts, DT, SMU

100. San Francisco 49ers – Savion Williams, WR, TCU

101. Atlanta Falcons – Lathan Ransom, S, Ohio State

102. Detroit Lions – Dylan Fairchild, OG, Georgia
