In The Pocket: Justin Fields' return, Dak Prescott at his best, the full picture of 2023 Patrick Mahomes, and playing on Thanksgiving

Friends, the 2025 NFL Draft has arrived. All our questions will finally be answered. But, for the time being, we still have questions! How many quarterbacks will go in the first round? Who, if anyone, will make a big move up the board? How will the receiver and corner positions shake out? Will any veteran players get traded? Robert Mays, Derrik Klassen and Dane Brugler ask the questions that still have them flummoxed on this episode of The Athletic Football Show. Rundown All things quarterback Who makes the move for Ashton Jeanty? Who's going to be the trade-up team? How high do the toolsy pass rushers go? Are both tight ends really gonna go that high? How do the receivers shake out? How does corner shake out? Veteran player trades Does the league buy these interior offensive linemen? What do the 49ers want to be on defense? Who's the back-half-of-the-first-round surprise pick?

A great comedy movie isn't going to win any Oscars, but it's a fun two hours at the movies. That's the offensive line class in the 2025 NFL Draft. It may not be stocked with potential future All-Pros, but it does have more than its fair share of players who project as quality starters. Dane Brugler and Brandon Thorn from the Trench Warfare Substack join Robert Mays to break down the class on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.

Robert Mays and Derrik Klassen dig into the mailbag one more time before the 2025 NFL Draft on this episode of The Athletic Football Show. Can one division support as much head coaching talent as the NFC North has? Should teams be wary about giving out top-of-the-market extensions to players at non-premium positions? Who were your favorite running backs to watch play? The guys answer those questions, and a whole lot more. Rundown NFC North loaded at head coach What's the easiest position for a world-class athlete who has never seen football to play? Giving top-of-the-market extensions to players at non-premium positions Should we expect Jayden Daniels to regress along the same lines as CJ Stroud? Teams that are good/bad at drafting Use of the fifth-year option affecting draft decisions Should teams consider division opponents in team-building process Should teams think about second-year players who had huge rookie seasons? What are the most fun "caution-to-the-wind" picks that could happen this year? Who were your favorite running backs to watch play?

Three receivers went in the top 10 of the 2024 NFL Draft. That isn't likely to be the case this year, but we could see 10 come off the board by the end of the second round. The tight end position might give us our highest-selected pass-catcher this year, with both Tyler Warren and Colston Loveland getting top-10 buzz. No matter what, the pass-catchers are going to give us plenty to talk about draft weekend. They also give Robert Mays, Derrik Klassen and Dane Brugler plenty to talk about on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.
