Twelve Offensive Players to Watch at 2025 NFL Combine
With the draft just 62 days away, the 2025 NFL combine in Indianapolis is set take place next week, and we’ve got a list of offensive players to watch for. Of course with the news of Gang Green parting ways with Aaron Rodgers, we start at quarterback.
QB Jaxson Dart, Ole Miss: Jets advisor Rick Spielman said at the end of Senior Bowl week in Mobile that he believes Dart will be a first-round pick. Does that mean he could go as high as seventh overall to the Jets?
QB Brady Cook, Mizzou: Cook battled through some injuries in 2024 but he’s been a very productive passer in the SEC, has good enough mobility to keep defenses honest squeezes throws in to tight windows. You’ll also see cook making his fair share of throws on the move and under duress.
QB Jalen Milroe, Alabama: Easily the most explosive runner at the position in this year’s draft, Milroe throws a great deep ball and will keep defensive coordinators up at night with the way he runs it. His struggles on shorter to intermediate throws have been an issue so teams will likely be looking to see how he does in Indy, even without any defenders to worry about.
RB Raheim Sanders, South Carolina: For many players, and some might argue all players, the most important part of going to the NFL combine is the medical records review. For Sanders, this is huge. One of the best backs in the country back in 2022 when he ran for over 1,400 yards, Sanders missed most of 2023 due to injury. He did bounce back last season with 881 yards for South Carolina and could draw interest from teams if they feel he’s 100% following knee and shoulder injuries.
