The degree of difficulty for mock drafts is high this year. I feel like Rodney Dangerfield trying to pull off the Triple Lindy dive in “Back to School.”Why is mocking this year’s NFL Draft so tough? A few reasons:1. The pecking order is ambiguous at several positions. Abdul Carter is sure to be the first edge rusher off the board, but it’s tricky to figure out how the edge guys fall after that. It’s hard to tell how the offensive linemen will fall after the first two or three.

This isn’t my first crack at highlighting RB3s with RB1 potential. However, now that the most important wave of free agency is completed, and the NFL Draft is drawing closer, it’s an ideal time to revisit the best ball average draft position (ADP) landscape for running backs and identify two players from RB25 through RB36 who could finish as a top-12 running back in 2025.

With the NFL Scouting Combine officially over and free agency looming, here’s my second attempt at exploring how the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft might end up. Many picks have been changed and different scenarios have been explored. Check out my 2025 NFL Draft scouting reports to see what I thought of each prospect during film review.

Welcome to my first mock draft for the 2025 NFL Draft cycle! This year I will be integrating last year’s NFL Draft Model into more of my decision-making process for this NFL Draft cycle. However, we are still waiting on critical data this early in the process, so this first mock will focus on team needs and rough player values. So to kick things off, there will be no trades in this mock. This allows us to better gauge player values.

China’s Two New Stealth Fighters: Heralding Defense Industrial Warfare: It’s that time again, when end-of-the-year advancements roll out in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). On 26 December, just in time for Mao’s birthday in China and Boxing Day elsewhere, footage of two “tailless” developmental “stealth” aircraft debuted within hours. The first is a large, heavy, crewed triple-engine double-delta-wing.
