The article provides projections for the top picks in the 2025 NFL draft, including Travis Hunter, Shedeur Sanders, and Will Campbell. It also explains the tie-breaker rules used by the NFL to determine draft order when teams have the same record.
With only three weeks left in the NFL season, we're inching closer to learning the official draft order for the 2025 NFL draft in April. The teams that have underperformed and made their fans suffer this season will gain some hope with top selections in the NFL draft. There's still time for the draft order to change, but here's what it looks like heading into Week 16.As it can be seen above, many teams will finish with the same record.

There are seven methods to break a tie in the draft order. Per the NFL, those are:In all instances the team that is 'better' (won a head-to-head matchup, boasts a higher strength of victory, etc) receives the worse draft pick. The rules are made to give the worst team the best draft pick. this year's Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter, the Colorado two-way star, is projected as the No. 1 pick. Whether he ultimately goes No. 1 depends on which NFL team receives the top pick and what type of player they need. Following him, the No. 1 quarterback in the draft is expected to be Colorado's Shedeur Sanders. His father, Buffaloes coach Deion Sanders,the New York Giants will select Sanders as they've dealt with various quarterback struggles this season and recently released their starter Daniel Jones. The next selection is projected to be LSU offensive tackle Will Campbell, who SI originally predicted would go to the Titans. After Campbell, a pair of quarterbacks are projected to follow suit—Miami quarterback Cam Ward and Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe.Madison Williams is a staff writer on the Breaking and Trending News team at Sports Illustrated, where she specializes in tennis but covers a wide range of sports from a national perspective.
