2025 NFL Draft: WR Prospects

[shopson67]

I think Tyler Warren goes high for sure, if he’s still available at 14 I think the Colts definitely take him given that they didn’t have much production at the TE position last year at all, but it’s possible he goes to the Jets at 7, they need a TE as well and he’s a great player, and there might be a couple of other teams with high picks interested. I think Loveland could fall some but the Colts need a TE so badly I could see them taking him if Warren is gone when they pick.
Definitely not a great receiving class IMO, especially after last year’s fantastic class.

I have Warren in a similar situation to Jeanty. Teams you wouldn't necessarily expect could take him. I do think the Jets should go RT, but the Jets aren't necessarily predictable. Glenn could push for defensive instead and I wouldn't be surprised. Like Graham if he's there.

This WR class doesn't have a ton at the top but has a decent group in the middle of this draft. Not much drop off from one player to the next and a nice mixture of different types of WR's. I have about 17-18 names I like but don't love. There are a couple that I do love but specifically for the Broncos because of their body types and what Payton has liked at the WR position in the past.

Hunter is the best WR prospect in this draft easily imo. That says more about him than the other guys. He can line up anywhere too. After watching more film I would play him at WR and situational DB, like big 3rd downs or when you need a stop. He can be an All-Pro WR. Reminds me of a Justin Jefferson type

Opinions!
Watching the highlights of Hunter, I see a WR that will not be able to dominate the D-backs like he did in college.
He'll still be very good as a WR but I see him as a cornerback 1st.

If you're going to play him at both positions, it's much more likely to be part time WR and full time CB than vice versa. We've seen that before.

The problem with part-time WR is when he enters the huddle you know that he is likely getting the ball.....

Not necessarily. A huge part of the Chiefs offense for years was Tyreek Hill doing a bunch of fake Jet Sweep plays. They would hand it to him a few times just to make a defense have to guess where the ball is going. You can use Hunter as a decoy to open things up in other places around the field.

Pretty expensive decoy. If you give him offensive snaps and pay him as WR, I would suspect he would get more than a few handles

Agreed. You do build in touches to make sure he gets the ball. I'm just saying that let's say he has 15 snaps a game and ends up with 5 touches you can do a lot in that small sample. And those other 10 snaps can definitely make a defense guess where the ball is going and open up other players as defenses do everything to stop Hunter.

Hunter's best trait as a WR is ball tracking imo. If I only had him for 10 plays on offense, they'd be 3rd downs and I guess Id give him something like the Randy Moss route tree which IIRC is super simple.

Although if he had to work on his release package then maybe a vertical slot.
