Rounds 2-3 Mock Draft | Day 2 Best Available | Round 1 Grades | Round 1 Winners and Losers
The first round of the 2025 NFL draft is in the books. That was the easy part for NFL teams. Rounds 2 through 7 is where the legitimate contenders separate themselves from the pretenders.
The first-round prospects dominated the headlines and talk shows in the months leading up to the draft, but there’s often plenty of talent that comes from Day 2. Last year, Cooper DeJean, Ladd McConkey, Braden Fiske, Edgerrin Cooper and T’Vondre Sweat were all taken in the second round. DeJean went from daydreaming about intercepting a Patrick Mahomes pass to actually doing it in the Super Bowl for a memorable pick-six.
Who are the next stars from Rounds 2 and 3? We’ll do our best to assess that with our instant grades for each pick Friday night, ranging from Nos. 33–102.
Let’s get to it.
