With a Labor Day behind us and week 1 of college football in the books, it is time to get out the first big board for the class of 2025! This reflects all summer scouting grades and does not take week 1 into account, which for some, I was tempted to (*cough* Connor Weigman *cough*).

Between the 2024 NFL Draft and now, I have altered my ranking system to focus on both my grading and tangible data that is the basis of 0 Tech Draft. My rankings are comprised of the following data.

  • Westen Draft Score: This is a score on a scale from 0-10 that indicates the amount of predicted success the player will have in the league based on traits, abilities, athleticism, etc. More methodology information can be found here.

  • 2023 PFF Player Score

  • 2024 PFF Player Score (TBD)

  • RAS (TBD)

  • Position Multiplier: 1.2 for QBs and 1.1 for WR, T, DI, ED, CB

With that said check out my summer scouting top 50 below. As always, please feel free to message me on X, @NFLDraft_Westen, with your thoughts, arguments, and complaints on players I have too high, too low, or outside of the list.

Until next time, prost!
