The Athletic’s NFL Draft guide, “The Beast” by Dane Brugler, is now live.
There will be 257 picks made in the 2025 NFL Draft, so this list — which starts with 300 prospects — should cover most, if not all, of the names you’ll hear called between Thursday night and early Saturday evening. As the draft evolves, consider this a shopping list for your team’s ideal prospects (or even potential undrafted free agent candidates).
(Editor’s note: Overall and positional rankings reflect a prospect’s initial rankings on Dane Brugler’s top 300.)
