2025 NFL Draft winners and losers: Shedeur Sanders falls into both categories, Tom Brady makes the list

After 257 reads in 2025 NFL Draft publicly in the books.

The draft started on Thursday with Browns to act something crazy, and ended in Saturday with Browns also do something crazy, so the way, catch really made full circle. The first time you started with the blockbuster trade between Cleveland and Jaguars and Jaguars moving from the fifth pick at the second overall spot, so they could take travis hunting.

Although hunter gone the second overall, the player who had to wait longer than expected to drafted to the hunter’s College teammate to Colorado, Senate Sanders. I only fall from the first round but ended all the way to the fifth before the fighting took him With 144th overall pick.

For this draft, Sandos was the winner and a loser. What is it possible? Let’s get to the full list of winners and losers to get out.

Winners

Sanders. Although Cicero wait five rounds before getting discused to actually end up work, because it ended what is arguably the best situation. Sanders could have a realistic case to win browns starting quarterback job that you’ll be joining a QB room and includes Joe Flaccus (Old), Kenny Pickett (still trying to figure out) and Dillon Gabriel. The best-case mission, Sanders Beats Each of the starting job. The worst-case mission begins at the time of the bench and gets to learn a veteran like Flacco. However, in 40 years Flaccus, perhaps not to her throughout the whole time as Starter, such as Sanders certainly take a chance to play at some point in 2025, but to earn it.

Jaguars General Manager James Gladstone, Jaguars ticket job, Jaguars Mascot, all in Jacksonville. In the first draft ever to be NFL General Manager in 34 years ago pulled the most stunning move in the night, when it is a deal with the Browns who gave Jacksonville in the overall pick.

The Jaguars will turn around and used to pick up I think of the Hunter. The Jags had to pay the hefty price to make a deal done, but the hunter is a general player and when you have in the case of the ground generation player, you have to do. Also, the two of Jacksonville’s biggest needs of going into the catch of the recipient and the corner, and filled both needs with one player. It was a classic two birds, one stone move that makes Gladstone’s winner in the book.

Not only did Jags nail in pick with the hunter, but actually gave them the “a” level to the first four reads. After Hunter, and Got CB Caleb Ransaw and OT Wyatt Milum in the third round. We had given them ‘a’ for reading Virginia Tech RB Bhayshul coat in the fourth. Guys this sound crazy but i think jags were good in 2025. It’s a high-flying team that is important to watch.

Cam Ward. Taking the pupil of the first overall pick titans, the best surrounding with a few arms. In the fourth, in the titans, the two receptors (Chimere dike, eel Ayomanor) and tight end (Gunnar Guben.) When he reads the first team in 17 years to catch three years to pass through. Ward and the License of Warren Moon to put their departure No. 1 in Tennessee.

Oh and titans and went out and sealed in the custody of the college WR1 Xavier Restrop and undrafted free agent after the draft. After getting drafted by Tennessee, Ward Hints in it I would like to play with Restropo and Titans clearly got a message.

Ohio State. The Buckeyes had a total 14 players taken on the draft, which is tied to the second plus from any school in the first seven rounds of draft. Emka Egbuka was the first buckeye to get off the board when I went 19 overall at buccaners. Then, 166 reads later, and howard became the last buckeye to get off the board with Steelers read in Ohio State QB to 186th overall. Cardinal and Steelers and Drafted two ohio state of players each other.

Robert Saleh. After five years away, the former carriage is back in San Francisco as a defensive coordinator and 49ers did the best to help him in the draft. 49ers use their first to catch the draft in defensive players, the price just second in freedom of history and they’ve done.

Saleh is likely to licking her chipped at the idea of ​​hykel mykel Williams and Each bosa at the same time. And 49ers lost several key defensive players this offseason, DT Javon Hargrave, DT Maliek Collins, Leonard Leonard Floyd, LB Dre Greenlaw, CB Charvarius horse and S Talanoa Hufanga, so that the spot where they had a burden in defensive players.

Tom Caesar. In the first draft with the Raiders, seven-time Crater The winner appears to be looking for the next Tom Caesar. Of course, Caesar, Caesar in the sixth draft and in which or not to be the case that the Raiders took two quarterbacks in the sixth by Saturday with Montana State Tommy and North Dakota State Miller. NDSU, Miller set up some huge numbers, it will be interesting to see what he does in Las Vegas.

To Mellott, as was the next Julian Edelman, because it is hoped to switch to the recipient. It’s also worth it that brady, along with the Raiders GM John Spytek, had a solid draft. We gave them b + or better in their own first week read.

In the bears. The ullamcorper was the best team in NFC North. OK, it was a slight larger, but this team starting to look scary, especially in the offense. After Drafting Colston Loveland in the first round, the ullamcorper followed by the recipient of the recipient of Luther 3 in the second round. A new latest Ben Cicero has a creative mental and it’s probably going to have fun call games in Chicago with these two new arms. It also carried the total overhaul of their offensive line taking offensive tackle in the ozzy trapilo with 59th overall pick. He added two more offensive players to the back end of the draft with offensive tackle Newman’s sixth through and running back Kyle Monangai. The ullamcorper got deep grades from CBS sports to both reads. Johnson and Caleb Williams are more likely to express it than this draft turned up.

Long snappers. This site is not usually get drafted, but in the goods changed, and by Vanderbilt Long snapper Julia Ashby in the seventh round. This marks first in four years, which a team delegates a long snapper, and now, ashby will be the head to the new England and compete with Joe Cardona to the roster spot.

Tyler Lona. Saints have not taken QB in the first two rounds of draft with 1971, but the dryness ended on Friday with new Orleans selected with 40th overall. Reason tough is the winner because it walks in what was the most friendly situation who rookie QB. Derek carr is the interaction with the shoulder injury and likely to start at the time, as well as if healthy wants to win the starting job in a new Orleans, and as it has beat out Spencer Rattler, Jake Haer and Ben Dinucci. If you don’t win a fight that you don’t ever get starting the QB in NFL.

Falcons pass. Falcons totaled as a 31 bags last time, which is a second few in NFL. In order to fix the problem, as a selected two edge rushers in the first (James Pearce Jr. and Jalon Walker). They gave up in 2026 first-by pick to get Pearce – and that was probably very high a price – but no one in Atlanta will be to ensure that Falcons fail, if Pearce on dominant, Rusher. Falcons have had a player with 10 or bags with 2016 (Vic Beasley), which is the longest active drought in NFL.

Losers

Sanders. Yes, we have listed as a winner, but it’s also a loser and the most important thing that I lost the roughly $ 13 million. If Cicero was in the first round of 21st overall pick, and I haven’t got a rookie contract worth of $ 18 million. Instead, which was taken in the fifth, and now, and you’ll not be getting four-year deal that is worth roughly $ 5 million. Also, it got drafted by a team who passed on him six times before it was decided to get it.

It is not so bad if he had only QB Browns departure but actually took it before he was selected Dillon Gabriel to 94th overall.

Browns’ bizarre Draft War. And added enough a few extra reads after making a first-in trade with jaguars, but they read, not only worth something if the browns can truly hit them, and the fans in the browns are likely to be, and this year. The Bouns became the first team in the modern draft era to two quarterbacks and two running back in the first five rounds. It was the most Bizarre draft plans in a recent NFL storyIf you don’t pay off, some of the Cleveland could be out of a job.

Quinn ewers. If you thought poured Sanders with pain to fall into the draft, just wait to see you hear about the ewers. Prior Texas quarterback, who could stay in a college one year, an exposed medium by picking, but it is not done. But sat on the couch around the heads of the three right at the dolphins, he delegates in the seventh round 231st overall pick. Two kickers and a puncer all got taken before ewers went off the board.

Ewers will ask for QB-friendly system, but it’s going to beat the previous first-in Pick (Zach Wilson) if you want to win the back QB job in Miami. Ewers ended with 13th quarterback taken, after two FCS quarterbacks, between Montana State’s Tommy Mellott, who will probably not even play quarterback.

Justin Tucker. The raven put tucker on notice Drafting a kicker first The freedom of history with reading Arizona Tyler loop. It is only a tucker coming off the worst of his career, but it’s also facing several arguments of sexual course. After 13 times in Baltimore, Tucker’s time with the raven to finally come to the end. Arizona’s tyler loop.

Abdul Carter. Before Penn State Star is not only here because I will not be able to wear a number each other wants in NFL. Carter was hoping to wear 56, but the number of concentration for the Lawrence Taylor, and it sounds like a giants legend, not forgiving carter wear it. “To get another number,” Taylor said This week when asked about the situation. “I don’t care if it’s a double-none, and I’ll make it famous.” Carter need to Taylor to talk to the Warren Moon.

Bengals, rollers and eagles. Four teams are one common only teams I don’t earn one “a” for who’s their reader The draft of a stable of graders here at CBS sports (Pete Prisco, Josh Julius Chris Trapasso).

  • The Bengals got raw talent in the first round (Shemar Stewart) and not trouble to try and fill many other defensive needs as angles, safety or protective tackling.
  • I earn a guards “B +” by Tre Harris in the second round but it was only pick our graders really loved.
  • St. started hot by taking kelvin banks Jr. In the first, a pick and earned a “B +,” but our graders do not prefer to love something that came later.
  • As the eagle, Howie Rosanan worked his magic in the morning in the draft, especially with the art of the Jihad Campbell in the first round, unless our stable of graders do not really love to do anything after the second graders do not really love anything you do not really don’t know anything later than the second about.
