With the 2025 NFL Draft finally upon us, it’s time for one last mock draft from APC. I ran this draft using the ESPN Analytics Draft Simulator tool, which I have found to be one of the more reasonable mock draft systems to this point.
There’s little more introduction that needs to be said about a mock here on the eve of the draft itself, so let’s just dive in to the picks.
Pick #23: Shemar Stewart, edge, Texas A&M
Talk about the most polarizing potential pick of the first round. I'm on board though - give this unit some absolutely filthy athleticism and raw tools and trust your new defensive line coach to unlock his potential (and that of the other players in that position group who have yet to see their production match their athletic abilities).
