The dust has settled on the 2025 NFL draft, as we've had a few weeks to digest and assess all 257 picks.
The headliners of any draft class will always be the first-round picks; they obviously arrive to the NFL with great expectations. But there are several Day 2 and Day 3 players who will make instant, notable contributions. Look back to 2024, when fourth-round running back Bucky Irving had 1,122 rushing yards and third-round safety Calen Bullock had five interceptions. Both numbers led all rookies last season.
With that in mind, I'm going to rank 10 players on each side of the ball selected in Rounds 2-7 who I expect will make the greatest immediate impact as rookies.
