Travis Hunter - English
With the 2025 NFL Draft just a few hours away, eyes are on the top picks. However, nothing would benefit a team more than a high quality rookie without spending a fortune.
While, teams want to lock in early opportunities, it wouldn’t be wrong for them to turn their attention to these five players.
He will remember! Shedeur Sanders fires back at NFL teams favoring Cam Ward at the Draft
Shaun Dolac
If you’re looking for a lineman, Dolac is someone you can’t pass up.
His incredible tackling has earned him first or second place in the last three seasons with Buffalo.
Although he suffered a shoulder injury in 2023 and missed the season, the linerbacker racked up 315 tackles between 2022 and 2024. His agility and athleticism was on display at Buffalo’s pro day, where he ranked as one of the top six linemen at the Combine.
O’Donnell Fortune
The South Carolina cornerback was, along with Travis Hunter, the only ones at this position to rank among the top four in the FBS, as ascertained by Pro Football Focus.
While he may not have the same profile as his teammate, Fortune fits into any team’s scheme and at a high level, which could cause serious complications for the opposing team. Moreover, the fact that he has been in the top four is no small feat.
Jalin Conyers
An offensive wing is what several teams are looking for and they could get a real gem with Conyers.
The Texas Tech player has proven to be solid both at the point of attack and in pass protection. He can even be a big help in the air. Over the past three seasons, he has 98 receptions for 1,104 yards and 10 touchdowns.
LeQuint Allen
Leading all FBS running backs with 64 receptions, Allen shined last season with Syracuse. He’s also not just a stay in place player, as he has proven to be useful in pass protection aggressively.
In addition, Allen is ideal to contribute on third down opportunities and while his 20 years may not leave many teams satisfied as they look for someone more experienced to play receiver or blocker, he racked up 1000 yards in two consecutive campaigns and his ability and potential could be brought out on the next team.
Nick Nash
Some would say that Nick’s 25 years could be a determining factor and he would be left out of the draft. However, the San Jose State player has a lot to offer.
He began his career shining as a quarterback, but gradually made his transition to wide receiver and, for the past two years, he has shined at this position.
With 104 receptions – 16 of them touchdowns – and 1382 yards receiving, Nash led all FBS wide receivers.
With his strength and experience as a quarterback, he can be explosive and a real headache for the opposing team.
Will they be selected in the Draft?

The Rockets blew it against the Jimmy Butler-less Warriors. They might regret it
SAN FRANCISCO — Let’s go back to the night of April 6 for a moment.It was the same two teams, the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors, in a regular-season finale everyone knew might be a playoff preview. Same location, the Chase Center, a building where the Warriors had been so dominant since adding Jimmy Butler at the February trade deadline.AdvertisementBut the result was different, an impressive 10-point win for the visitors that seemed to carry some sort of deeper meaning. Maybe, just maybe, this Rockets team could exorcise the Warriors demons that have haunted them for so long.Unlike the version of the Rockets that blew a … golden … opportunity to take the 2-1 series lead Saturday, falling 104-93 in Game 3 to a Warriors team that was without Butler (pelvic contusion), the April 6 Rockets looked like […]
Minnesota United coach Eric Ramsay in contention for Southampton job as Saints eye quick Premier League return
Getty Images Minnesota United head coach Eric Ramsay has emerged as an early candidate for the vacancy at Southampton, sources have told CBS Sports. Southampton remain in the formative stages of finding a coach who will lead them in the Championship next season, the south coast side having endured a disastrous Premier League campaign that has seen them register just 11 points from 34 games. Ramsay is among a number of names under consideration as the Saints plot an immediate return to the top flight.Ramsay, 33, has been one of the most highly regarded in the English game having spent time working as a player development coach at Chelsea before moving to Manchester United, where he worked as a player development coach under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer while also aiding the Welsh national team. When he joined Minnesota in February 2024, he […]
How 48 hours of rage and recrimination overshadowed the Copa del Rey final
Real Madrid were launching one desperate last attempt to save Saturday’s Copa del Rey final when referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea signalled a free kick against forward Kylian Mbappe.With the game well past the 120-minute mark, everyone in Seville’s Estadio Cartuja realised that Barcelona were about to win the game 3-2 and lift the trophy.AdvertisementOn the sidelines, Madrid defender Antonio Rudiger, who, a few minutes earlier, had limped off the pitch injured, leapt to his feet and appeared to throw a bag of ice he had been holding against his leg in the direction of the referee.Amid chaotic scenes, De Burgos Bengoetxea showed a red card to Rudiger, and another to Madrid’s Lucas Vazquez, who had entered the pitch to protest despite having also been substituted earlier.The Basque official then blew the final whistle, and while Barcelona’s players celebrated their […]
NFL Draft: Ranking QBs taken in Rounds 1-3 since 2023 by situation, including Cam Ward, Tyler Shough
Imagn Images The 2025 NFL Draft is officially in the books, and this year's event wasn't without its share of drama. All eyes were on Colorado's Shedeur Sanders as he slipped from consensus first-round target into Day 3, but plenty of other big names found some surprising homes. That includes Sanders' fellow quarterbacks like Tyler Shough, who could end up opening 2025 as the New Orleans Saints' starter; and Jalen Milroe, who's set to watch and learn behind Sam Darnold in the Seattle Seahawks' new-look offense.Talent and smarts alone can certainly elevate young quarterbacks out of the gate. Just look at what C.J. Stroud did in 2023, or what Jayden Daniels did in 2024. More often than not, however, NFL quarterbacks are only as effective as their supporting casts -- their playmakers, their protection, their coaching, etc. And that might […]
