With just one day to go until the 2025 NFL draft, it’s time for us to make our final predictions for where each of Ohio State’s draft prospects will end up.

Ohio State is expected to have a record-tying 15 players drafted this week – along with two additional undrafted free agent signings – but there’s no clear consensus on where any of them will be selected.

Josh Simmons, Emeka Egbuka, Donovan Jackson, TreVeyon Henderson, Tyleik Williams, JT Tuimoloau and Quinshon Judkins have all drawn some first-round projections in mocks leading up to the draft, yet none of them are considered locks to go in Round 1. Projections for Jack Sawyer and Will Howard have ranged from as high as Round 2 to as low as Round 5. Denzel Burke, Lathan Ransom, Jordan Hancock, Ty Hamilton, Seth McLaughlin and Cody Simon are all widely projected to be Day 3 picks, though it wouldn’t be shocking to see any of them sneak into Round 3 either.

With that in mind, Eleven Warriors’ Dan Hope and Garrick Hodge have each made their projections for where all 17 of Ohio State’s NFL draft hopefuls will end up in this week’s draft, which begins Thursday with the first round, continues Friday with Rounds 2 and 3 and concludes Saturday with Rounds 4-7.

RB TreVeyon Henderson

Hope: Round 1, No. 20, Denver Broncos

There’s been a lot of smoke this week that the Broncos are interested in Henderson and that Henderson is trending toward being a first-round pick. Given that the Broncos need to upgrade at running back and that Henderson has the potential to be a Jahmyr Gibbs-esque weapon in Sean Payton’s offense, I’m choosing to believe those rumors.

Hodge: Round 1, No. 20, Denver Broncos

I made this prediction on Tuesday and I’m sticking to it. Denver pretty clearly wants a running back, and this essentially might boil down to their preference between Henderson or North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton, assuming both are on the board at this time.

WR Emeka Egbuka

Hodge: Round 1, No. 23, Green Bay Packers

Personal bias aside that I’m wrestling with putting a really talented player on a team I’ve hated my entire life, it’s no secret that the Packers could use another weapon for Jordan Love. Egbuka makes perfect sense for Green Bay and he’ll get a nice ovation in the draft’s home city, even if he won’t be there to see it.

Hope: Round 2, No. 36, Jacksonville Jaguars

While I believe Egbuka is worthy of going in Round 1, the Packers haven’t drafted a receiver in the first round since 2002 and there isn’t another obvious fit for Egbuka in the late first round. That said, he won’t be on the board long if he falls into Round 2. The Jaguars need a No. 2 receiver to pair with Brian Thomas Jr., and Egbuka would be a perfect fit if he’s still on the board.

G Donovan Jackson

Hope: Round 1, No. 24, Minnesota Vikings

Left guard is the Vikings’ most glaring need, and they’ve shown clear interest in Jackson by bringing him in for a pre-draft visit. They could look to trade down as Garrick projects, but I think Jackson’s hometown Houston Texans will snap him up if the Vikings don’t, so I have Minnesota staying put and taking the three-time All-Big Ten offensive lineman.

Hodge: Round 2, No. 34, Minnesota Vikings (Projected trade with New York Giants)

There’s a consensus going around draft circles that Minnesota would like to trade back if possible, considering it only has four picks in this year’s draft. So I’m forecasting the New York Giants, quarterback rumors flying and all, pull off a trade with the Vikings for pick No. 24 to come up and draft either Jaxson Dart or Shedeur Sanders. But the relevant part to this pick is the Vikings have been connected to Jackson throughout the predraft process and I’ve got the feeling they’d love to snag him here.

OT Josh Simmons

Hope: Round 1, No. 31, Kansas City Chiefs

Simmons could come off the board much earlier than this – I wouldn’t be shocked to see him drafted as high as the 10th overall pick, as I believe he’s the truest left tackle prospect in this draft – but his decision not to attend the draft after initially accepting an invite, in tandem with the knee injury he’s still recovering from, has me thinking he could slide into the late first round. But I don’t think he gets past the Chiefs, who could clearly use a tackle like Simmons after struggling mightily to block anyone in the Super Bowl.

Hodge: Round 2, No. 35, Tennessee Titans

The Titans are projected to draft who they hope is their franchise quarterback in Cam Ward. With pick 35, I’ll forecast they try to give him some protection. Perhaps it’s a stretch that Simmons falls this far, but with him opting not to go to the NFL Draft after originally planning to and his injury history, a slight slide on draft night could be possible.

DT Tyleik Williams

Hope: Round 1, No. 32, Philadelphia Eagles

Williams has been projected as a second-round pick in most mock drafts, but the fact that six teams picking in the final 10 slots of the first round hosted him for pre-draft visits – including the Eagles – makes me think he’s got a real shot to go in late Round 1. The Eagles have consistently placed a premium on drafting defensive linemen in recent years, and Williams would be a good fit to replace Milton Williams after the latter left Philadelphia for the New England Patriots in free agency.

Hodge: Round 2, No. 46, Atlanta Falcons

It’s pretty easy to envision Atlanta going pretty defensive line heavy early with its first couple of picks. Grady Jarrett anchored the team’s interior defensive front for what seems like forever, but the Falcons and Jarrett parted ways before free agency began. Naturally, they’d need a replacement and Williams certainly fits that mold.

DE JT Tuimoloau

Hodge: Round 2, No. 41, Chicago Bears

Despite multiple additions to their defensive line in free agency this offseason, the Bears still lack a consistent pass rush under new defensive coordinator Dennis Allen. Tuimoloau can change that right away after leading the Buckeyes in sacks with 12.5 en route to winning a national title.

Hope: Round 2, No. 46, Atlanta Falcons

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tuimoloau come off the board earlier in Round 2 or even in late Round 1, but I think he’d be an obvious target for the Falcons – who I have drafting Michigan cornerback Will Johnson instead of an edge rusher in Round 1 – if he’s still on the board at the 46th pick. Upgrading the pass rush is a big need for Atlanta, and Tuimoloau would project to be a three-down player right away in the Falcons’ defense.

RB Quinshon Judkins

Hodge: Round 2, No. 44, Dallas Cowboys

While this draft is lauded for its depth at running back, the Cowboys might be running out of options here to snag a highly valued running back, assuming they go wide receiver with their first-round pick. Ashton Jeanty, Hampton, Henderson and Kaleb Johnson could feasibly all be off the board this point, and Dallas could use a running back early in the draft, so I’m predicting Judkins to be the perfect fit here.

Hope: Round 2, No. 44, Dallas Cowboys

Once again, Garrick and I are projecting an Ohio State running back to land in the exact same spot. Henderson going in Round 1 could start a run on running backs between the late first and early second rounds, and the Cowboys are one of the teams projected to draft a RB in Round 2 after parting ways with Rico Dowdle and Ezekiel Elliott. They’ve shown plenty of interest in Judkins in the pre-draft process, so I don’t think they pass him up unless Henderson or Hampton is surprisingly still available.

DE Jack Sawyer

Hope: Round 2, No. 49, Cincinnati Bengals

The Bengals drafting Sawyer feels like a selection that’s meant to be. They need a defensive end following the retirement of Sam Hubbard, and Sawyer is a lifelong Ohioan who visited the Bengals during the pre-draft process and has a similar skill set to Hubbard. It’s possible the Bengals could wait until Round 3 and still land Sawyer, but I have them drafting him in Round 2 to ensure they land the former Buckeye.

Hodge: Round 3, No. 69, New England Patriots

You didn’t think Mike Vrabel was going to make it through his first draft in New England without selecting one Ohio State player when there are more than a dozen solid Columbus prospects available, did you?

QB Will Howard

Hodge: Round 3, No. 80, Indianapolis Colts

I’m admittedly higher on Howard than most mocks are projecting, and finding a fit for him can be tricky considering you have to factor in projected quarterback movement from teams either trading into the late first round or snagging signal callers up in the early second round. So, I’m putting Howard with the Colts, a place where he won’t be asked to start right away (or even at all year one) but could be in contention to by the end of the year or heading into his second season depending on how he impresses the team brass and if Anthony Richardson/Daniel Jones fall on their asses.

Hope: Round 3, No. 90, Los Angeles Rams

I think Howard is worthy of consideration as early as Round 2, but the projected slide of Shedeur Sanders into the late first round could push the rest of the quarterback class down in turn. That said, I believe Howard will get the call from the league by the end of the night on Friday, and I think the Rams would be a good fit. While he’d begin his career as a backup to Matthew Stafford, he’d have the chance to position himself as the successor to the Rams’ 37-year-old current starter and he’d be plenty comfortable in Los Angeles after handling the Ohio State spotlight with ease.

S Lathan Ransom

Hodge: Round 3, No. 90, Philadelphia Eagles

Eagles general manager Howie Roseman loves players who attended big colleges and played in big games (or maybe he just loves Georgia) and Lathan Ransom just seems like the type of hard-nosed player the Eagles and their fans would get behind. I’m predicting Ransom joins the reigning Super Bowl champions and gets to go to a place where he can be developed.

Hope: Round 4, No. 107, Jacksonville Jaguars

While I don’t have Ransom going on Day 2, I expect him to be scooped up early on Day 3, and Jacksonville would be a good landing spot as he would have an opportunity to compete for early playing time on a depth chart that’s fairly thin at the safety position.

CB Denzel Burke

Hope: Round 4, No. 115, Arizona Cardinals

The Cardinals could use another starting-caliber cornerback but could prioritize the trenches in the early rounds, so this would be a natural fit if Arizona waits until Round 4 to draft a CB. It would be a homecoming for Burke, an Arizona native, and the Cardinals will have plenty of insight on Ohio State’s draft prospects after hiring Justin Frye as their offensive line coach.

Hodge: Round 4, No. 119, Cincinnati Bengals

Last time I checked, the Bengals need no shortage of help on the defensive side of the ball. One unfortunate contest against Oregon aside, Burke has a proven track record of shutting down opposing wideouts and could immediately bolster Cincinnati’s secondary.

DT Ty Hamilton

Hodge: Round 4, No. 115, Arizona Cardinals

I think Hamilton might be my pick for most underrated Buckeye in this year’s draft. Some team is going to get an established run-stopping defensive tackle, and I’m projecting that to be the Cardinals.

Hope: Round 5, No. 151, Indianapolis Colts

The Colts need defensive tackle depth, and Hamilton’s ability to play both DT spots in a four-man front would make him a good fit for Indianapolis’ defense under new coordinator Lou Anarumo.

CB Jordan Hancock

Hope: Round 4, No. 129, Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens need depth across their secondary, which could make Hancock an appealing middle-round target with his ability to play both cornerback and safety. I expect him to be selected by the end of the fourth round after his excellent showing at Ohio State’s pro day, and the Ravens have two late fourth-round picks.

Hodge: Round 6, No. 192, Cleveland Browns

Admittedly, the Browns have pretty solid cornerback depth already, but Cleveland has loved drafting Buckeyes the past few draft cycles and Hancock could provide solid depth even as a rookie with his measurables.

LB Cody Simon

Hope: Round 4, No. 130, Detroit Lions

I believe Simon is a better NFL prospect than Tommy Eichenberg was a year ago, and Eichenberg was a fifth-round draft pick, so I have Simon going in the fourth round based on that simple calculation. The Lions need linebacker depth, and last year’s “Block O” wearer would fit in well with the hard-nosed approach Dan Campbell wants from his players.

Hodge: Round 6, No. 185, Pittsburgh Steelers

At this point in the draft, we’re just going on vibes alone. And Simon seems like a perfect Steeler based on his stoic personality and someone Mike Tomlin would love to add to his linebacker room.

C Seth McLaughlin

Hodge: Round 5, No. 142, Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jaguars signed Robert Hainsey in free agency to be their starting center, but they could definitely use more offensive line depth on the roster. Snagging the best center in college football last season seems like good value here for Jacksonville.

Hope: Round 5, No. 149, Dallas Cowboys

The Cowboys are expected to add to their interior offensive line at some point in this year’s draft, and McLaughlin could prove to be a great value choice if he slides into the later rounds due to the Achilles injury he suffered in November. He’d give the Cowboys a reliable backup center behind Cooper Beebe while also giving them the option to move Beebe to guard – the position he played at Kansas State – if McLaughlin demonstrates he can be an NFL starter.

TE Gee Scott Jr.

Hodge: Undrafted Free Agent, Seattle Seahawks

Making undrafted free agent guesses are throwing darts at the wall and seeing what sticks (even more so than guessing actual NFL draft picks), so I’m just going to align Scott with his hometown Seahawks.

Hope: Undrafted Free Agent, Seattle Seahawks

I’m using the same logic as Garrick here. Scott’s dad works for the Seahawks as a gameday host, so it’s logical to assume Seattle might have the upper hand in a bidding war for Scott’s services as an undrafted free agent. Their tight end depth is limited, too, so Scott would have a chance to earn a roster spot in Seattle should he sign there.

OT Josh Fryar

Hope: Undrafted Free Agent, New England Patriots

While I don’t have Mike Vrabel drafting any Buckeyes in his first year as Patriots head coach, he could still add a member of last year’s national championship team by signing Fryar if he goes undrafted. The Patriots have a severe lack of NFL-caliber offensive tackles on their current roster, so New England could be an appealing destination for undrafted offensive tackles even if the Patriots draft a couple of OTs.

Hodge: Undrafted Free Agent, Indianapolis Colts

Using the same formula I did for Scott, Fryar stays local and gets a tryout with the Colts.

The Denver Broncos have a young core of wide receivers behind proven veteran Courtland Sutton, but is Sean Payton satisfied with the room as a whole?

Behind Sutton, the Broncos have Devaughn Vele, Marvin Mims Jr., Troy Franklin and third-round pick Pat Bryant. That seems like a solid nucleus of overall talent, but one player who could be available via trade may catch their eye.

Matt Holder of Bleacher Report suggested that the New Orleans Saints could make Rashid Shaheed available for trade and Daniel Arwas of Athlon Sports envisions the Broncos being the team that lands him, should that happen.

“With New Orleans perennially in cap hell and perhaps wanting to enter a rebuilding phase after the retirement of quarterback, Derek Carr, it checks out that Shaheed may not be in the franchise’s long-term plans having just signed a one year extension this offseason.

And given Sean Payton’s long-time connection with the Saints – even though he himself never coached Shaheed – it could certainly be a possibility”, wrote Arwas.

He proposes that the Broncos send a 2026 fifth-round pick to the Saints in exchange for Shaheed and a 2026 seventh-round pick. While that seems like tremendous potential value, do the Broncos want to crowd the wide receiver room any further?

In addition to the names mentioned above, the Broncos also signed Trent Sherfield in free agency and they have an exciting dark horse on the roster in A.T. Perry. There just doesn’t seem to be a lot of room for a player like Shaheed.

Shaheed has been great for an undrafted player in New Orleans. In three seasons, he has caught 94 passes for 1,556 yards and 10 touchdowns. Though he is not a volume receiver, he is one of the game’s best deep threats when healthy as he seems good for at least one long bomb per game. His average of 16.5 yards per reception is evidence of that.

Still, if the Saints are looking to move him, it seems that there would be more wide receiver-needy teams around the league, willing to pay a better price for his services.

The Denver Broncos have only made one modest change to their wide receiver room in the 2025 offseason with the decision to take Pat Bryant in the 3rd round of the 2025 NFL Draft. As much as the team believes in its young players, the wide receiver position is one of those on the roster you can never have too much depth at.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have been purging their roster all offseason since the hiring of new general manager James Gladstone, and Gladstone is making his mark on the roster more and more each day. His latest move was cutting veteran wide receiver Gabe Davis, a former star with the Buffalo Bills who was a big-money addition in 2024 by the Jags.

Playing in just 10 games, Davis struggled in his lone year with the Jaguars but figures to land on his feet quickly. He just turned 26 years old in April and, frankly, it’s shocking that the Jags weren’t able to get anything for him in a trade.

Broncos should move quickly to sign wide receiver Gabe Davis

Last off-season, the Jaguars signed then free-agent WR Gabe Davis to a three-year, $39 million contract. Davis played 10 games with the Jaguars, catching 20 passes for 239 yards. https://t.co/Rp0sjXtVs2 pic.twitter.com/V3BksthhTy — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) May 7, 2025

It just so happens the Broncos already acted quickly once to sign a Jaguars player who was cut earlier this offseason, so why not go for it again?

Heck, maybe Evan Engram can help the Broncos recruit Davis if they are interested in signing him. And why wouldn’t they be? Davis isn’t the type of player who is going to prevent young guys from getting on the field in Denver as he has worked extremely well in rotation throughout the course of his NFL career.

The Broncos have been sniffing around veteran receiver help for the last handful of years but haven’t pulled the trigger on signing or making a move to get anyone. That list includes players like Adam Thielen, Allen Lazard, Cooper Kupp, and Deebo Samuel. The Broncos also looked into the price tag on veteran Stefon Diggs earlier this offseason.

Sometimes, the best deals are the ones you don’t make. The Broncos have already qualified for their compensatory picks and because of the timing of this move (and the fact that Davis was cut, this move doesn’t factor into that equation at all.

Davis is a quality receiver who is still young. He has big-game experience and made some really clutch plays for Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. The Broncos are trying to get past teams like that, and Davis can help.

This team needs to add a veteran receiver and it’s clear that they’re not going to be able to get anybody better than this just sitting there on the free agent market this offseason. GM George Paton and head coach Sean Payton need to move quickly.

The Denver Broncos need to make a blockbuster move to secure a true No. 1 receiver to pair with Bo Nix for years to come. Courtland Sutton is nearing the end of his contract, and age is becoming a factor.

Sean Payton has found success with at least one primary target, and if the Broncos want to give him another Super Bowl ring before his career ends, they must find a playmaker he can rely on.

That’s why targeting a superstar wide receiver stuck in a struggling franchise makes sense — a player who may be ready to save his career. Garrett Wilson of the New York Jets fits that description perfectly.

The Jets brought in a future Hall of Fame quarterback and wide receiver to improve the team, but that only resulted in a five-win season, and neither Hall of Famer remains with the team.

Now, the Jets have invested $60 million in the unproven Justin Fields. If Fields succeeds, Wilson could become frustrated and look to leave New York. If the Jets want to avoid losing one of the league’s best young receivers for nothing, they will likely have to trade him before it’s too late.

If Wilson requests a trade or becomes available by the trade deadline this season, he could land in Denver’s lap. Wilson, the 10th overall pick in 2022, has exceeded expectations every year. He has recorded at least 1,000 receiving yards each season and ranks among the two 1,100-yard receivers.

Last season, Wilson caught 101 passes, tied for seventh in the league, with 1,104 yards and seven touchdowns. Heading into his fourth season, he is on pace to become one of the greatest receivers of all time — and he’s still improving. Trading for him now and signing him to a long-term deal could give Wilson and Nix one of the NFL’s most dangerous duos for the next decade.

Wilson is a versatile receiver who runs precise routes, makes spectacular catches, and can evade defenders with the ball in his hands. He has improved every year and is known as a team player with no off-field issues or locker room drama. Wilson consistently makes top-10 catches, and his next highlight reel could be in Broncos orange and white.

The trade would send Wilson and a sixth-round pick to Denver in exchange for Sutton, Malcolm Roach, Mike McGlinchey, and a first- and third-round pick. The Broncos would land the new face of their offense, while the Jets improve their roster depth and gain valuable draft capital to rebuild.

The Jets replace Morgan Moses, who left for New England in free agency, with a run-blocking specialist in McGlinchey. They also add more interior defensive line depth, which they badly need. Quinnen Williams is one of the best defensive tackles in the league, but outside of him, the Jets do not have a solid option at the position. Getting Roach gives them another talented tackle to rotate in.

On top of that, they acquire Courtland Sutton, who is in the last year of his deal. The Jets can either re-sign him or let him walk, freeing up a lot of money for the next season to continue their rebuild. They also gain two extra picks in the first three rounds of next year’s draft, which they can use to take advantage of what looks like one of the better draft classes.

Giving up Wilson is not ideal for the Jets, but if he wants out, this scenario is better than losing him for nothing. He would be the perfect main target for Sean Payton and Bo Nix and would make Denver one of the best offenses in the league. The Broncos would lose two top picks, but they are unlikely to draft a player better than Wilson. Given their current path, they benefit more from win-now players than rookies.

Sutton would obviously be replaced by Williams, and the Broncos would still have a big-bodied receiver in Devaughn Vele. McGlinchey has been solid for the Broncos, especially in the run game, but replacing him with Alex Palczewski, entering his third season, is not a huge problem. Palczewski has shown promise and potential in limited playing time and could be ready to take over the starting role.

The only issue for the Broncos in this trade is that they become very thin at defensive tackle. From last season, undrafted free agent Jordan Miller moves into the backup spot, leaving a vacancy at third string. The Broncos will likely have to sign or trade for another defensive tackle, but that problem is worth having for Wilson.

Raekwon Davis, Linval Joseph, Daniel Eukale, Jordan Phillips, and Khalil Davis are inexpensive options the Broncos could bring in for depth and veteran presence. They re-signed DJ Jones in the offseason, so the starting spot is locked up; they just need more interior depth.

Denver should closely follow the Jets in training camp and at the start of next season. If the Jets start to struggle, the Broncos need to be the first to try to acquire Wilson before other teams make offers. Wilson could change the team and the franchise, and the Broncos should do whatever it takes to get their guy.

The Denver Broncos made the playoffs in 2024 in somewhat surprising fashion. Quarterback Bo Nix shined in his rookie campaign after going 12th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. With the 2025 NFL Draft on the horizon, there is a chance for this team to get better.

The Broncos added talent in free agency this spring. But there is room to add more long-term pieces to this roster. In PFSN’s latest 2025 NFL Mock Draft, Denver does just that while adding a new piece to Nix’s offense.

Broncos Add to Bo Nix’s Supporting Cast in 2025 NFL Mock Draft

As mentioned, Denver made some crucial moves in free agency. Most of these moves came on the defensive side of the ball. However, they did add to the offense. The Broncos signed tight end Evan Engram to a two-year contract.

As a result, the team has room to add on the offensive side of the ball. For instance, Denver could use a running back. Javonte Williams left for the Dallas Cowboys this offseason. And Denver has yet to sign a replacement.

Moreover, depth at tight end wouldn’t be a terrible option. Engram certainly gives them a capable pass catcher at the position. But they could stand to add a younger option who could make an impact on a long-term basis.

However, none of these positions were addressed in PFSN’s latest mock. Instead, the Broncos took a wide receiver with the 20th overall pick in the draft. Denver selected Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden with this pick.

“The Denver Broncos exceeded expectations in 2024, making the playoffs behind Bo Nix. To help him keep improving, they should continue adding to his supporting cast. A coordinated, intelligent route runner with impressive body control attacking the ball in the air, Matthew Golden has been the subject of plenty of buzz in recent weeks. He doesn’t have an elite physical trait, but he’s a well-rounded target who should be a strong complementary starting receiver in the NFL,” PFSN contributor Jacob Infante wrote of the fit.

There is a link between the Broncos and Golden heading into the draft. The Texas pass catcher has visited Denver over the last week. At the very least, Golden appears to be on Denver’s radar heading into the 2025 NFL Draft.

There is good reason for this, as well. Golden has seen his draft stock increase since the NFL Combine in Indianapolis. Notably, he ran a 4.30 40-yard dash at the Combine, which certainly drew a ton of attention his way.

There are some concerns around Golden, as well. For instance, he wasn’t entirely productive in college. He averaged 61.7 yards per game for Texas during the 2024 season. This would be the lowest per-game yardage of any first-round wide receiver dating back to 2020, according to Sports Illustrated.

Golden’s elite speed is sure to make him a first-round pick, though. And the traits he brings to the field show he has the potential to put it all together. Whether the Broncos are willing to take a chance on the Texas standout being more productive in the NFL than in college is another matter entirely.
