SEC DEs top early list of top prospects for 2025 … We have been talking a lot over the past couple of weeks about the top college prospects for the 2024 draft, and all indications are that it could be a pretty good draft year. However, that said, a number of the best players in college football this fall won’t actually be draft eligible until 2025 and beyond. Heading the early ranking of the top prospects for 2025, for example, are a pair of rising SEC edge rushers in Harold Perkins of LSU and Georgia’s Mykel Williams. And while it is still early, a pretty good case can be made that both Perkins and Williams would be the first guys off the board at their position were they in the 2024 draft class. A pretty good case can also be made that Mississippi State RB Quinshon Judkins, Georgia FS Malaki Starks, and Texas OG Kelvin Banks would also be the top prospect at their respective positions were they eligible to enter next year’s draft, while LSU OT Will Campbell would be close. On the other hand, at least at this point in time, there are some questions about the young QBs that are likely to be available in 2025, although both Drew Allar of Penn State and Cade Klubnik of Clemson, certainly have the tools, but are still somewhat unproven. Pro teams looking to upgrade at QB, though, may not have to wait long after that time, though, if the 2025 QBs don’t necessarily pan out as there some really good young passers coming down the pipeline including the next generation of Mannings as Arch, nephew of Peyton and Eli is a freshman at Texas this fall. The best incoming frosh QB this year, though, might be Dante Moore of UCLA, while Dylan Raiola, a Georgia commit, is the early favorite to be the top gunner in 2027. Here is our very early, very unofficial listing of the top 25 prospects for 2025 as it looks today some 600 or so days from that actual draft!
