The pick is in. Two-way superstar Travis Hunter was drafted second overall by the Jaguars on Thursday night after a blockbuster trade with the Browns. Jacksonville paid a hefty price, too, which included the the fifth overall pick, its 2026 first-round pick and multiple mid-round picks in 2025. With so much invested in Hunter, who is expected to play both ways in Jacksonville, this begs the question, how valuable will he be?

We are almost one week away from the NFL Draft and the top question has to be where will the quarterbacks be drafted? Cam Ward looks like a virtual lock to be the top pick to the Titans. Will the Browns or Giants take Shedeur Sanders in the top three? If not, will the Raiders, Jets or Saints scoop him up in the top 10 or could he fall down the board? Will a third quarterback go in the first round, like Jaxson Dart to the Steelers at 21?

The NFL is a copycat league so it stands to reason that every front office will be putting the Philadelphia Eagles' success under the microscope to see if they can replicate it and also triumph. We've already seen the rise in the "Tush Push," and I'm sure teams would love to get their hands on the next Saquon Barkley, but the most likely Eagles imitation in 2025 will come in the form of an elite pass rush, especially with this incoming draft class.

The 2025 NFL Draft may not be flush with blue-chip talent, but it certainly does not lack in big names or storylines. Miami quarterback Cam Ward is the presumptive No. 1 overall selection, and yet it is another quarterback, Colorado's Shedeur Sanders, who seems to be driving headlines.

There may be no bigger crapshoot in sports than the NFL Draft. Perhaps that's why most people subscribe to the idea that you should take the best available player rather than draft based on team need. In theory, taking the best available prospect will give you a better shot at landing a productive player for the next 5 to 10 years instead of reaching further down the board to fill one need (among several likely needs) that may not even exist in a year.

Ryan McGrady, Ethan Zuckerman, Kevin Zheng / Jan 30, 2025The machine learning models that produce text, images, and video based on written prompts require massive amounts of data. Popular models like ChatGPT may have started small, with public domain ebooks, Congressional transcripts, and freely licensed content like Wikipedia, but the competitive demand for more and more data to build better and better models has led these companies to look elsewhere.
