2025 NFL Draft: Dynasty Superflex Rookie Mock Draft
Through four weeks of the college football season, it seems like we have already been able to determine the contenders from the pretenders. In week four, Colorado was humbled by a much more talented Oregon Ducks team that looks like it is on a mission and ready to get back to the College Football Playoff. Penn State blanked the Iowa Hawkeyes in a “whiteout” game at Beaver Stadium, and Ohio State narrowly escaped a victory in South Bend to give the Fighting Irish their first loss.
However, each one of those teams will have a number of 2024 NFL Draft prospects that we will be excited to discuss and analyze, in both their NFL future and dynasty outlook. The first, and very early, 2024 dynasty rookie mock dropped earlier this month, and I expect that to change as we approach midseason.
This is our first introduction though into the 2025 dynasty rookie class and some of the future prospects to familiarize two years from now. I also expect this mock to change down the road once it is official as to who leaves and who stays in 2024, but here are the future dynasty prospects who will have first-year draft eligibility next season.
1.01 – Drew Allar, QB Penn State
It has been a long time – nearly 30 years to be exact – since the Nittany Lions have had this type of talent at the quarterback position. Allar burst onto the scene in his debut start against West Virginia and hasn’t looked back. The throws he made throughout the game, and the type of arm talent he has, only very few have in college football. It didn’t take long, but for me, he has solidified this spot as the 1.01 in 2025.
1.02 – Nicholas Singleton, RB Penn State
Singleton hasn’t fully amped it up yet after his breakout first year, but I expect that to change as the year goes on. Still, despite the rather slow(er) start, it does not discredit the talent and profile he brings. It might be more of a credit to the talent surrounding him now, that they don’t need to rely on him as much as they did last year. If he does declare after the 2024 season, Singleton will without question be the consensus RB1 in the 2025 class.
1.03 – Travis Hunter, ATH Colorado
Coach Prime wasn’t kidding when he said he was bringing his luggage with him, wasn’t he? Hunter, Shedeur Sanders (son of Deion) and true freshman running back Dylan Edwards have been the stars for the Buffaloes so far in Boulder and Hunter had played nearly every snap on both sides of the ball up until his injury in their week three showdown with Colorado State. This is a very unique situation, as Hunter has displayed he can excel at both wide receiver and defensive back. It is more likely his future is as a cornerback at the next level, but for these purposes, we cannot ignore his ability and talent as a receiver. If he does end up declaring, and decides to enter the NFL Draft as an offensive weapon, remember that it was here at DLF when this was first predicted. In all seriousness though, Hunter’s talent and god-given ability should not be ignored.
1.04 – Evan Stewart, WR Texas A&M
A consensus five-star recruit in 2022, Stewart was a freshman All-American and has started strong in 2023 with a 22-307-3 TD line. His track speed (two-sport athlete in high school – track and football) has been on display and is steadily building his case as the 2025 dynasty rookie WR1. Stewart is listed at six feet, 175 pounds and will continue to fill out the frame over the next two years. Texas A&M has rebounded from a disappointing 2022 to start the 2023 season at 3-1. Stewart and Ainias Smith are a solid one-two combination for the Aggies, but it is Stewart who you should be most excited about.
1.05 – Quinshon Judkins, RB Ole Miss
Judkins is a former five-star prospect that burst onto the scene as a true freshman, eventually overtaking incumbent Zach Evans (who was drafted in the sixth round by the Rams in 2023) and became the Rebels’ RB1 early. Judkins is quick and flashy, with an explosive burst and sharp, precise lateral quickness in space. He is listed at 5 foot 11, 210 pounds, which profiles similarly to Eagles running back D’Andre Swift. Judkins’ smaller stature prevents from being a true bellcow. Through the first three games, he has shared the field with senior running back Ulysses Bentley IV, resulting in close to a 60/40 snap percentage split. Still, it is clear the burst, explosiveness, and juice Judkins plays with it. He should continue to improve and will be in the top-five overall rookie conversation in 2025.
1.06 – Damien Martinez, RB Oregon State
Martinez was a three-star recruit out of Texas and won the job as a true freshman for the Beavers, rushing for 982 yards and seven touchdowns. He has started off really strong in 2023, rushing for over 100 yards in three out of their first four games with an eye-popping 4.98 yards after contact (per Pro Football Focus). What is most intriguing about Martinez is his size/strength combination. He is listed at a hulking six feet and 232 pounds, up 16 pounds from his rookie weight of 216. He may be a guy you do not know much about since he plays most of his games on the West Coast and the Beavers aren’t exactly known for as being a college football powerhouse, but he is a name you should get familiar with if he is here in this rookie mock as a top-six rookie pick.
1.07 – Luther Burden III, WR Missouri
Burden was a consensus five-star recruit and ninth-ranked overall player by 247 sports. He has played in ten games for the Tigers and has started off strong in 2023. He is used in many different ways for Missouri and is both explosive and dynamic with the ball in his hands. His speed also allows him to stretch the field vertically and easily separate from defenders. Burden is listed 5 foot 11, but he plays much bigger than his size and has been the best player on the field for the Tigers. He is draft eligible going into next year as a true junior. If he does declare, he will be a top 25-50 pick ensuring him first-round value in rookie drafts.
1.08 – Conner Weigman, QB Texas A&M
This might tell you everything you need to know about the prospective quarterback class in 2025. Weigman comes off the board here at the 1.08 selection as the QB2. He may not be better than some of the talented prospects below him, but because of the nature of this exercise, it would be hard to have him any lower due to his upside and potentially high ceiling. The fact is, Weigman was a high recruit (ranked as the top quarterback by ESPN in 2022 class), started as a true freshman, earned 2022 Freshman All-American honors, and has the size/frame of a potential franchise quarterback at 6’3″ 215 pounds. He has started off strong with 909 yards and eight touchdowns and has led the Aggies to a 3-1 start. It won’t be known until draft season if draft-eligible underclassmen quarterbacks (such as Shedeur Sanders) returns for 2024, but I don’t expect there to be only two quarterbacks projected in this class.
1.09 – Kaytron Allen, RB Penn State
Penn State having two elite talents in their backfield is a luxury. Allen is the 1B to Singleton’s 1A and should not be forgotten. Both have played a huge role to the hot start for the Nittany Lions and Allen will continue to be a significant contributor for the next two years. Allen is a former four-star recruit out of powerhouse IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida. Allen’s size, power, and play strength all are traits that will translate to the next level. He will be hard to leave out of the 2025 first-round rookie draft conversation if his profile checks out.
1.10 – Antonio Williams, WR Clemson
Williams became a key piece in the Tigers’ offense as the year progressed last season culminating in their Orange Bowl appearance. He has built off his true freshman campaign where he caught 56 receptions and four touchdowns. He missed last week’s showdown against Florida State due to injury, but still leads the Clemson offense in receiving with a 15-145-2 line. Per PFF, he also carries a 2.42 yards per route run, improving off the 1.61 he had last year. The only setback for Williams at this point has been the play of quarterback Cade Klubnik. If at any point Klubnik improves, so Williams and the Tigers’ offense as a whole.
1.11 – Jaydn Ott, RB California
Ott is the fifth running back to be included in this mock, which is showing the potential depth of this class in 2025. Like Martinez before him, Ott also made an impact in 2022 as a true freshman staying home to Cal and rushing for 897 yards and eight touchdowns. The one difference between the two is that Ott has been much more of a factor in the passing game, as displayed through his 46-321-3 receiving line last season. Ott is listed at an even six foot, 200 pounds and fits the profile as a duo threat running back that the NFL likes. By next year, I think Ott will be higher on this list and will be a no-brainer 2025 top-five running back and first-round rookie pick.
1.12 – Tetairoa McMillan, WR Arizona
The final selection here to close out this mock may be the most intriguing and highest upside. McMillan is a former four-star recruit and three-sport athlete (football, basketball, volleyball) and has towering size at six foot five. He led all true freshman wide receivers in 2022 with 39 receptions, 702 yards, and eight touchdowns and has been even more impressive to start the year with a 21-341-3 receiving line. If you already have McMillan on your roster, whether in campus to canton or devy leagues, then you’ve done a great job in identifying long-term talent. After Evan Stewart, I think it is a wide open conversation and very much in the air as to who is the 2025 WR2, but with McMillan’s profile and talent, it would be hard to argue his positioning.
