Last year, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were one of the most successful passing offenses in the NFL. They were so successful that, for the second year in a row, their offensive coordinator landed a head-coaching job elsewhere at the end of the year (this time it was Liam Coen; the time before it was Dave Canales). Quarterback Baker Mayfield had a career season, completing 71.4% of his passes at an average of 7.9 yards per attempt, totaling 4,500 yards and 41 touchdowns against 16 interceptions.

Some names in college football — like Arch Manning, DJ Lagway and Julian Sayin — already feel destined for the spotlight. And rest assured: quarterbacks will get plenty of attention in the months ahead. But today, we're turning the pen elsewhere. The 2025 season is rich with breakout potential across the board. From freak athletes on defense to skill players ready to take over game plans, this fall offers a chance for emerging stars to reshape the national conversation (no arm talent required).

An exciting first round of the 2025 NFL Draft is in the books. It featured plenty of surprise, including one right off the bat with the Jaguars trading away next year's first round pick to Cleveland for the rights to draft Travis Hunter. The way the board broke this year, with just two quarterbacks going in the first round (Cam Ward and Shedeur Jaxson Dart) and Shedeur Sanders falling into the second day, I think 2026 will call for a reversal.

With about one week to go until the 2025 NFL Draft, the buzz is growing louder around certain prospects. Some of it makes perfect sense; some of it doesn't. Every year, a few players ride measurables and potential into inflated draft-day stock, while others with quality tape and high floors get overlooked. Here's a look at a few guys I'm lower on than consensus -- and a few I think deserve a lot more love. All rankings via CBSSports.com's consensus prospect rankings.

Spring football continues to feel different around college football — and I remember writing that this time last year — but, boy, this has really been different. We've got high-profile standoffs between star quarterbacks and their SEC programs, we've got the near-total elimination of spring football games as we knew them, we've got teams rushing to spend crazy amounts of money now before an expected House v. NCAA settlement goes into effect, and we've even got Bill Belichick wearing Carolina blue.
