Longtime ESPN and college football analyst Mel Kiper Jr. has released his first mock draft of the 2025 NFL draft season. In the mock, he has the Browns selecting the reigning Heisman winner.

In the latest mock from our Christian D’Andrea — a top-five mini-mock — he had the Browns taking Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders at quarterback. But in Mel Kiper Jr.’s first mock of the year for ESPN, he had Sanders’ teammate Travis Hunter going to Cleveland and Sanders going to the New York Giants at No. 3.

We are getting close to the Super Bowl which means we are only less than 100 days until the NFL draft. One of the next major events the Browns have to look forward to is the draft, where they once again have a first-round pick.

In this seven-round 2025 mock draft, I wanted to focus on getting the Browns playmakers. The Browns have five picks in the first 105 picks of the draft. They must find difference-makers with their nine picks in the draft. Here are some of my favorite prospects in the 2025 NFL draft.

The Cleveland Browns will have a legitimate shot at selecting the best player in the 2025 NFL draft, Colorado star and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter if they do not get too cute with their pick.
