Silva: 2025 NFL Mock Draft 1.0

1 week ago | establishtherun.com | Evan Silva

1. Titans – Miami (FL) QB Cam WardTennessee all but ignored this year’s free-agent quarterbacks, rather building their offense to drop a rookie in. Ward draws Steve McNair comparisons as a plus athlete and aggressive thrower with a creative, gunslinging game. 2. Browns – Colorado WR/CB Travis HunterHunter is easily 2025’s premier draft talent.

Sunday Football3:00 PM ET GameWashington @ PhiladelphiaTeam Totals: Eagles 27, Commanders 21I took the Eagles to cover -4.5 as soon as this spread opened, but it’s since been aggressively bet in Philadelphia’s direction. Deservedly so; Commanders stalwart RG Sam Cosmi tore his ACL in last week’s upset of Detroit, a massive loss against on-fire Eagles DT Jalen Carter.

Saturday Football4:30 PM ET GameHouston @ Kansas CityTeam Totals: Chiefs 25, Texans 16.5Even fresh off a somewhat season-saving Wild Card upset win over the Chargers, Houston limps into the Divisional Round nursing injuries throughout its pass-catcher corps and O-Line in a road trip to Arrowhead Stadium to face a healthy Chiefs team that hasn’t played starters since December 25.

Wild Card Saturday4:30 PM ET GameL.A. Chargers @ HoustonTeam Totals: Chargers 22.5, Texans 20Justin Herbert enters Saturday’s date with the Texans beneath Houston’s NRG Stadium roof on a tear, having completed 77 of 105 passes (73%) for 911 yards (8.7 YPA) and a 7:1 TD-to-INT ratio over Los Angeles’ last three games. Averaging 27.3 rushing yards, Herbert closed 2024’s regular season as fantasy’s overall QB5 in that Weeks 16-18 stretch.

N.Y. Jets @ JacksonvilleTeam Totals: Jets 22, Jaguars 18.5Having finally snapped his multi-year sub-300-yard passing streak while compiling a 10:1 TD-to-INT ratio over his last six games, Aaron Rodgers is two-QB-league viable against a Jaguars defense permitting the NFL’s third-highest completion rate (69.6%) plus league highs in yards per pass attempt (8.2) and passer rating (107.5).
Evan Silva’s Matchups: Bengals at Titans

Dec 8, 2024 | establishtherun.com | Evan Silva

Cincinnati @ TennesseeTeam Totals: Bengals 26, Titans 21Fantasy’s overall QB2 in per-game points behind only Josh Allen since Week 9, Joe Burrow has arguably been the NFL’s best quarterback over the course of 2024. Burrow ranks No. 3 among qualified QBs in passer rating (107.9) while leading the league in completions (335), passing yards (3,706), and passing TDs (33).
Evan Silva’s Matchups: Dolphins at Texans

Dec 8, 2024 | establishtherun.com | Evan Silva

Miami @ HoustonTeam Totals: Texans 25, Dolphins 22Scorers of 30+ points in three of their last four games and now visiting Houston’s NRG Stadium dome, the Dolphins’ offense should stay hot on the back of Tua Tagovailoa, who is fantasy’s QB3 over the last month. In that four-game stretch, Tua is completing 75% of his throws with an 11:0 TD-to-INT ratio as the conductor of a decidedly pass-first attack. He’s an upside QB1.
Evan Silva’s Matchups: Ravens at Giants

Dec 8, 2024 | establishtherun.com | Evan Silva

Baltimore @ N.Y. GiantsTeam Totals: Ravens 28.5, Giants 14The Ravens return from Week 14’s bye to face a Giants defense yielding the NFL’s fifth-highest completion rate (69%), seventh-most yards per pass attempt (7.5), and fourth-highest passer rating (101.1). This is a blow-up spot for Lamar Jackson, who is fantasy’s overall QB1 by nearly a point-and-a-half per game.
