We can see the finish line from here. There are just 17 days until the 2025 NFL Draft and with pro days complete and evaluations in the books -- you can read my write-ups from the Colorado Showcase and the Ohio State, Miami and Syracuse pro days -- a three-round mock draft only seemed fitting.

Unlike a year ago, when six quarterbacks went in the top 12, only two go in Round 1 here with another five going on Day 2. Meanwhile, 14 defensive tackles and another 15 edge rushers go off the board in arguably the deepest defensive line class in recent memory.

And finally, there's one trade -- I have the Bears moving up for a blue-chip edge rusher and the Patriots moving down to stockpile picks and help out their young QB. I love what New England is able to do in this three-round mock, and I also like the players who fell to San Francisco, Dallas and Kansas City, in particular. I suspect some fans of those teams might disagree but that's OK too.
