That’s a far cry from the 1936 NFL Draft, which marked the first time professional football teams selected from a pool of players. It looked something like this:

Free agency and the NFL Draft have come and gone, and the Raiders still have a “Band-Aid” at quarterback. New England could use an elite receiver, while the Falcons and Bears need edge rushers.

What does 2025 offer teams with question marks? Let’s look at expected free agents and next year’s draft:

How AI legalese decoder Can Help:

The AI legalese decoder can assist in making sense of legal jargon and complex language commonly found in contracts, agreements, and legal documents. By using advanced algorithms and natural language processing, the AI legalese decoder can simplify and clarify legal terms, enabling individuals to better understand their rights and obligations.

2025 free agents

After former GM Randy Mueller covered 2025’s top 30 free agents, let’s quickly look at three positions with players likely to be available:

• WR: Stefon Diggs, Keenan Allen, Amari Cooper and Chris Godwin are all talented receivers above age 29 likely available in the $19-25M, one-year rental range. Tee Higgins (25) would command a longer-term deal.
• QB: Either Russell Wilson or Justin Fields will likely move on from Pittsburgh, while Sam Darnold and Jimmy Garoppolo could tempt teams, but hopefully not mine. Daniel Jones could be cut. Heck, a 47-year-old Tom Brady could return.
• Pass rushers: Veterans Khalil Mack, Shaq Barrett, Haason Reddick, Matt Judon and Josh Sweat could hit the open market. The $10-15M range is reasonable here. Seeing Mack (33) back in Chicago would be special.

Who’ll have cap space?

Teams who can and can’t spend in 2025, per Over the Cap:

• Most cap space: Patriots ($128M), Cardinals ($113M), Commanders ($102M) and Lions ($98M … 👀).
• Least cap space: Seahawks ($2M), 49ers (-$23M), Browns (-$31M) and Saints (-$73M … 😂).

The 2025 draft

After a record-setting haul of quarterbacks and offensive players, next year’s draft is less star-studded, pending breakouts during the upcoming college season. Three takeaways from Dane Brugler’s 2025 mock draft:

• No. 1: Georgia DL Mykel Williams, a “toolsy prospect” who could switch to edge — similar to his comp, 2022 No. 1 pick Travon Walker, who quietly had 10 sacks last season.
• QBs: Only three are first-round picks, starting with Georgia’s Carson Beck, whom Dane lists as the No. 2 pick. Texas’ Quinn Ewers is No. 14, followed by Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders (yes, Deion’s son) at No. 22.
• Defense: 17 defensive prospects are projected in the first round, including edge Abdul Carter, who draws comps to fellow Penn State alum Micah Parsons. Two Michigan defenders — DT Mason Graham and CB Will Johnson — go top five.

Who’ll have extra picks?

While every team still has their first, the Bears and Bills have extra second-rounders (thanks, Bryce Young and Stefon Diggs). And of course, Eagles GM Howie Roseman has additional third-, fifth- and seventh-rounders in 2025.

The Vikings have the least draft capital, missing their second-, third- and fourth-round picks. The Rams traded a 2025 second to move up to No. 39 and draft DT Braden Fiske, who will reunite with fellow Florida State alumni Jared Verse (No. 19) in L.A. Speaking of draft pick trades…
