The Patriots view TreVeyon Henderson as a three-down back, VP of Player Personnel Eliot Wolf said Friday night. "Extremely good speed, pass protection, pass game," Wolf said of his second-round pick. "Although he's a little bit undersized, we view him as a 3-down back. Just a really good complement. He is a threat with the ball in his hands; speed to take it the distance any time he touches it."
The Browns selected Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel in Round Three of the 2025 NFL Draft. Gabriel spent six years in college, starting two seasons at Central Florida, two at Oklahoma, and one at Oregon. (He missed most of 2021, his final UCF season, with a broken clavicle.) Gabriel steadily improved throughout his career, culminating with an impressive 2024 campaign at Oregon. He threw for 3,857 yards with 30 TDs vs. six INTs on a 72.9% completion rate and 8.6 yards per attempt. Gabriel ranked second in adjusted completion rate and eighth in Pro Football Focus passing grade among 128 qualifying QBs. He was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year and finished third in Heisman Trophy voting. This is a smart, experienced QB with a quick release and excellent accuracy. Unfortunately, Gabriel goes 5’11 and 205 pounds with underwhelming arm strength and average athleticism. That ultimately limits his upside for NFL and fantasy teams. We’re likely looking at a long-term backup with spot-start ability.
The Seahawks selected Alabama QB Jalen Milroe with the xxx pick of the 2025 NFL Draft. Milroe’s fantasy profile starts with his elite rushing ability. He ran for 806 yards and 12 TDs in 2023 and 879 yards and 20 TDs this past season. His 12 rushing scores of 10+ yards last year were the most by a QB in the last 25 years, according to The Athletic’s Dane Brugler. Milroe is a well-built 6’2, 217-pounder and clocked an unofficial 4.37-second 40 time at his Pro Day. His athleticism will certainly translate to the next level and give him exciting fantasy upside whenever he’s on the field. The question is whether his passing ability will be enough to get him on the field. Milroe has plus arm strength but shoddy accuracy and poor touch on shorter throws. He’ll also need to improve his pre- and post-snap processing. Milroe’s 72.6% adjusted completion rate last year ranked 53rd among 128 qualifying QBs. The good news is that scouts praise Milroe’s attitude and work ethic, so don’t put it past him to improve enough as a passer to develop into an NFL starter.
The Packers selected TCU WR Savion Williams with the 87th pick of Round 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft. Williams is a bet on size and speed. This past season, TCU prioritized getting the ball in his hands quickly, leading to an average target depth of only 6.6 yards. He struggled with focus drops for his career but excelled with a 75% contested catch rate. Williams played QB in high school. Across five seasons at TCU, though, he primarily lined up at WR. He took on a larger rushing role late in the 2024 season. The 6’5, 212-pounder never posted true breakout numbers. His most productive campaign came this past fall (60-611-6) alongside fellow WR prospect Jack Bech (62-1,034-9). He also ranked 31st among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 18%, and 37th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with a 70.2. He is currently 23.3 years old. He ranked 13th among WRs in our predraft Rookie Model scoring a 6.79. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Cordarrelle Patterson.
The Steelers selected Iowa RB Kaleb Johnson in Round 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Johnson led Iowa in rushing as a true freshman in 2022, showing his grinding skills between the tackles. He ran 151 times for 779 yards and six TDs. After an ankle injury slowed him down in 2023, he enjoyed an exceptional year in 2024 on a struggling Iowa offense. His great vision and contact balance led to 240 rushes for 1,537 yards and 21 TDs on the ground. Johnson is the typical Hawkeye RB, consistently churning his feet to pick up additional yardage. He also leads the class in rush yards over expected per attempt for his career, picking up an additional yard per rush over expected. Johnson could eventually become a three-down NFL back if he can develop as a pass catcher. He’s simply not a burner, and that predictably showed up at the NFL Combine with his 4.57 forty time.
The Ravens stopped the slide of Marshall Edge Mike Green with the 27th pick of Round 2 on Friday night. On the football side, Green looked like a first-rounder. He racked up an FBS-leading 17 sacks in 2024, along with a class-leading 23 tackles for loss. Pro Football Focus graded him the No. 1 edge in all of FBS last year. And he rated even higher as a run defender than a pass rusher. So why didn't he go earlier? Sexual-assault allegations. Green revealed at the Combine that he had one in high school and another in college. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says the first installed a "zero tolerance" policy for Green at Virginia. The second got him booted from that first college stop. Green Then transferred to Marshall and ultimately had just one starting season. Green denied the allegations. But his treatment by Virginia and now the NFL at least imply skepticism.
The Texans selected Iowa State WR Jaylin Noel with the 79th pick of Round 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft. He will be paired with college teammate Jayden Higgins who the Texans drafted in Round 2. At just under 5'10, 196 pounds, he’s likely a slot target in the NFL. However, at the Senior Bowl he saw extensive work out wide, giving Noel versatility for the Texans. As a true freshman at Iowa State, Noel posted 39-269-0 alongside QB Brock Purdy. Noel spent the next three seasons with the Cyclones, with the last two turning up a spike in production (146-2,014-15). “I feel like I can run every route,” Noel has said. “But there’s always small things you can do to get better.” He had a 9.75 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 11th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 27.7%, and 14th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with an 81.7. He is currently 22 years old with a Breakout Age of 21. He ranked 12th among WRs in our predraft Rookie Model scoring a 6.8. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Willie Snead.
The Broncos selected Illinois WR Pat Bryant with the 74th pick of Round 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft. At 6’2, 208 pounds, Bryant can win downfield with his length and strength at the catch point. After struggling with drops from 2021-2023, he tallied just one drop in 2024. Bryant played four seasons at Illinois, but he didn’t lead the team in receiving until2024. Last fall, he posted 984 yards and 10 TDs. He ranked a close second on the team in catches (54) behind first-year transfer (and sixth-year player) Zakhari Franklin. In 2023, Bryant ranked third on the team in catches and yards behind current NFL backups Isaiah Williams and Casey Washington. He had a 7.06 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 16th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 23.9%, and seventh among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with an 86. He is currently 22 years old with a Breakout Age of 20.7. He ranked 21st among WRs in our predraft Rookie Model scoring a 6.14. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Demarcus Robinson.
The Lions selected Arkansas WR Isaac TeSlaa with the 70th pick of Round 70th in the 2025 NFL Draft. TeSlaa ran a 4.43 40-time at 6’4 and 214 pounds, outstanding athleticism. TeSlaa started out at D-II Hillsdale, where he stayed from 2020-2022.He started his final two seasons and earned Conference Player of the Year honors in ‘22 (68-1,325-13). His production dipped after transferring to Arkansas. The jump in competition led to only 34-351-2 on a 21.5% target share. TeSlaa’s usage declined with a 9% share in 2024, although he popped as a vertical slot with 19.0 yards per catch on 28 receptions. He had a 9.93 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 49th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 8.9%, and 35th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with a 70.5. He is currently 22 years old with a Breakout Age of 19.3. He ranked 33rd among WRs in our predraft Rookie Model scoring a 5.89. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Matt Jones. His special teams ability and raw upside makes him a potential dynasty stash.
The Browns selected Bowling Green TE Harold Fannin Jr. in Round 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft. After a breakout sophomore campaign (44-623-6), Fannin turned in the most productive season from a TE in FBS history. He set single-season records with 117 catches and 1,555 receiving yards, posting an absurd 60.0% Dominator Rating. That easily led this TE class and was the second-highest mark among all TEs with 20+ targets since 2004, behind only Trey McBride. Fannin feasted on a lot of bad defenses in the MAC, but he also torched Penn State for 11 catches, 137 yards, and a TD and Texas A&M for eight catches, 145 yards, and a score. Fannin tested as a mediocre athlete at the Combine, with a 4.71-second 40 time and 34-inch vertical at 241 pounds. But that wasn’t a surprise if you watch his tape. Fannin is an awkward player. He’s clearly explosive in a straight-line, but his change of direction is clunky. Fannin is ultimately an unconventional prospect that comes with a wide range of fantasy outcomes.
The Patriots selected Washington State WR Kyle Williams with the 69th pick of Round 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft. His 4.4 speed makes him a deep threat, specializing in corner and post routes. Williams spent his first three seasons at UNLV before transferring to Washington State due to coaching changes. He compiled 131 catches, 2,043 receiving yards, and 20 TDs over the past two seasons. He had a 6.33 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 12th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 26.2%, and 12th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with am 82.1. He is currently 22 years old with a Breakout Age of 19.1. He ranked 20th among WRs in our predraft Rookie Model scoring a 6.18. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Markus Wheaton. He did struggle at the Senior Bowl, but the upside and draft capital for Williams gives him a chance to make a fantasy impact.
The Broncos selected UCF RB RJ Harvey in Round 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft. An ACL tear threatened his football career in 2021, but Harvey’s perseverance paid off. Over the past three seasons, he’s totaled 3,789 rushing yards, 720 receiving yards, and 47 total TDs. Though he is under 5’8, Harvey’s home run ability, combined with soft hands and explosion, makes him an intriguing RB at the pro level. His NFL Combine performance only confirmed his dynamic skill set. The UCF notched a 91st percentile broad jump, an 85th percentile vertical, and a 92nd percentile forty-yard dash. Harvey has also been mentioned as an RB favorite of top draft analysts like NFL Media’s Daniel Jeremiah and The Athletic’s Dane Brugler.
The Bengals drafted LB Demetrius Knight in the middle of Round 2. Knight joins a defense that still has Logan Wilson and Germaine Pratt at the position. Knight's a bit of a curious pick. He's a nice size-speed combo, delivering an 81st-percentile speed score at 6'2, 235 pounds. He also tallied nice production over his final two years. That included 96 tackles, 6 tackles for loss, and 3 INTs in his lone season at Charlotte (2023); and then 82 tackles, 8 TFLs, and 2 sacks in his only year at South Carolina. Those two seasons followed four years quiet years at Georgia Tech, though. His breakthrough years came at ages 23 and 24, and Knight turned 25 this January.
The Raiders selected TCU WR Jack Bech with the 58th pick of Round Two in the 2025 NFL Draft. A sturdy athlete at 6’1, 212 pounds, Bech does well making tough catches in traffic. Bech made waves as a freshman at LSU. He tallied 43 catches for 489 yards and 3 TDs, with the first two figures outproducing teammates Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. Bech’s production dipped the following season, and coaching changes prompted a 2023 move to TCU. After a quiet debut, Bech’s production shot up to 62-1,034-9 as a 2024 senior. Primarily playing outside, he tallied nearly 17.0 yards per catch and a healthy 2.44 yards per route run. He had a 9.50 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 25th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 19.3%, and ninth among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with an 83.1. He is currently 22 years old with a Breakout Age of 21.7. He ranked 11th among WRs in our predraft Rookie Model scoring a 6.94. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Allen Robinson. There’s a chance he develops into a real-life WR2.
The Chargers selected Mississippi WR Tre Harris with the pick of Round 2 in the 2025 NFL Draft. Harris is a tough cover at 6'3, 210 pounds. A high school QB, Harris transitioned to WR at Louisiana Tech. After a developmental year in 2020, he started the next two seasons, combining for 105-1,4970-14. He led or tied for the team lead in all major receiving categories in 2022. Harris transferred to Ole Miss in 2023, where he flashed big-play potential alongside QB Jaxon Dart. Then, despite injuries limiting him to eight games in 2024, Harris remained dangerous with 7 TDs and 17.2 yards per catch. Harris led the nation with a stunning 5.15 yards per route. He had a 9.23 Relative Athletic Score (RAS) based on his predraft testing. He also ranked 29th among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 18.4%, and second among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with an 89.4. He is currently 23 years old with a Breakout Age of 20.5. He ranked sixth among WRs in our predraft Rookie Model scoring a 7.49. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Kenny Britt. He brings an all-around skill set that makes him an intriguing option to be an immediate contributor for the Chargers.
The Seahawks selected Miami TE Elijah Arroyo in Round 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Arroyo caught just five balls as a true freshman in 2021, tore his ACL in 2022, and finished with one catch in 2023. But he flashed exciting playmaking ability this past year, catching 35 balls for 590 yards and seven TDs. Arroyo garnered just 9.5% of Hurricanes targets, while his 17.7% Dominator Rating ranked 11th among 21 TEs at the Combine. But he was very efficient, averaging a huge 16.9 yards per catch and ranking 19th in yards per route among 86 qualifying TEs. Arroyo was a field stretcher, with an 11.1-yard average target depth and eight catches 20+ yards downfield – fourth most among TEs. But he was at his best after the catch, leading all FBS TEs with 8.9 yards after the catch per reception. Arroyo didn’t test at the Combine or his Pro Day, but he looks like an excellent athlete at 250 pounds on tape. He creates separation at all levels of the field and adds value with his speed and agility after the catch. Arroyo ran 51% of his routes from the slot last year and projects as a catch-first TE at the next level.
The Cowboys spent a second-round pick on Edge Donovan Ezeiruaku. He's undersized for the position historically: 6'2.5 (19th percentile) and 248 pounds (11th percentile). But a huge wingspan (82 and three-quarters inches; 85th percentile) helps make up for that. Ezeiruaku also brings nice speed off the ball and a 91st-percentile 3-cone drill. That points to his high-level ability to get around the edge as a pass rusher. And Ezeiruaku produced on the field at BC. He delivered 8.5 sacks among 15 tackles for loss and 61 total tackles as a first-time starter in 2022, his second season with the Eagles. Ezeiruaku closed his career with ACC-leading 21 TFLs and 16.5 sacks as a senior.
The Rams selected Oregon TE Terrance Ferguson in Round 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Ferguson improved his production in each of his four college seasons, culminating with a 43-591-3 line this past year. His 16.3% Dominator Rating ranked 12th among 21 Combine TEs, but his 2.02 yards per route was good for fifth. Ferguson was mostly a short-range target at Oregon (6.7-yard career aDOT) but averaged a strong 7.0 yards after catch per reception for his career, including 9.0 last year. Ferguson helped himself at the Combine with a 9.32 Relative Athletic Score. He clocked a 4.63-second 40 time with a 39-inch vertical at 6’5, 247 pounds.
The Seahawks selected S Nick Emmanwori with the third pick of the second round. Emmanwori might be the most athletic safety to enter the league. He rocked a 4.38-second 40 time at the Combine, at 6'3 and 220 pounds. Emmanwori also delivered a 98th-percentil vertical, 99th-percentile broad jump, and even an 85th-percentile performance in the bench press. And Emmanwori delivered on the field as well. He started all three seasons at South Carolina and led two of those teams in tackles. Emmanwori also snagged 6 INTs over the past two years. That included 4 in 2024, two of which he returned for TDs. Pro Football Focus graded him 16th in coverage last season among 200 FBS safeties who played at least 200 snaps.
The Jets selected LSU TE Mason Taylor with the 42nd pick of the 2025 NFL Draft. Taylor set LSU records for career catches (129) and receiving yards (1,308) by a TE. He contributed as a true freshman in 2022, finishing third on the Tigers with 38 catches and 414 yards – both ahead of sophomore WR Brian Thomas Jr. After posting a 36-348-1 line as a sophomore, Taylor set career highs with 55 catches and 546 yards this past year. Both marks ranked third on the team – although Taylor’s 11.1% Dominator Rating ranked just 17th among 21 TEs at the Combine. His 1.23 yards per route ranked 18th. And he scored only six career TDs at LSU (4.7% TD rate). Taylor’s production profile is good-not-great, but there’s still plenty to like here. He turns just 21 in May, earned an 8.89 Relative Athletic Score, and just got strong draft capital. There probably isn’t top-five fantasy upside here, but Taylor comes with a relatively high floor and could be a long-term lower-end TE1 for fantasy squads. The Athletic’s Dane Brugler comped him to Hunter Henry.
