2025 NFL Draft Horizontal Board

A full horizontal draft board with 280 prospects

It all comes down to this. Here is my full horizontal board for this year’s draft class, featuring some 280 eligible prospects. If you have any time, you can listen to the full series I’ve done with Jon Ledyard breaking down these prospects and tiers, featuring full evaluations, what is valuable (to the league) at each position and scheme fits.

You can find those shows here.

Putting these boards together is tricky, trying to mirror what really goes on in an NFL team’s scouting room and draft prep while making it digestible to readers. Scheme matters. There are greater variations between positions (interior defensive linemen are not created equal). It’s something I’ve wrestled with this offseason. If you’re curious about the process, Jon and I discussed it on our final pre-draft podcast here. But to keep the work somewhat in line with the industry norm, this is a typical horizontal board: showing the prospects by tier and position, allowing you to cross-reference the strength of the class at different positions.
