Both better college players (really good!) than pro prospects. So needless to say, but-IMHO.
Grade Each Pick (2025 Draft)...
- Thread starter Charlie Rivers
- Start date
hoops
Tua time!
I hate letter grades always have. I thought we overdrafted Grant a little but but I did like him as a top 4 Dt based on potential. That ras score is concerning however. Looks like a better athlete on tape so I’ll just hold out that that’s actually the case.
I think the zona kids ceiling is average and with pick 37 you shouldn’t be settling for that. Not to mention trading the 3rd rounder in the process. FORCE
Rest of em don’t much matter imo. Having to go from pick 37 to the 5th round without a pick in a must win season with all our holes is clown shoes.

Watching the Florida CB today has me impressed. He plays physical with tight coverage, gets lots of pbu's and blitzed very well...I'm thinking many people haven't watched him play with the C- grades of him. He plays similarly to Ramsey, I'm not saying he's the athlete Ramsey is, but he's physical and plays with an edge.
He was super inconsistent at UF but getting a possibly plus starter in the 5th is a longshot, at best. Length and speed are there. Solid value pick.
He has what I can only describe as negative ball skills so don't expect a bunch of ints.
Int's are a bonus and not the be-all-end-all for CBs in assessment.
He plays sticky coverage in the best conference as a starting boundary. 23 pbu's is NOT negative ball skills. He blitzed well and is more than a willing tackler.
Those traits make him a worthwhile 5th round pick. As a 5th, he's got a chance to compete with our current group of corners.
About 7 of those pbu should've been picks ... he's got those stone hands going on. Why the negative ball skills comment.
Probably our best value pick of the draft and as a UF alum ... definitely not hating. Odds on favorite to start opposite Ramsey on the boundary.

Grant B - Would have preferred Nolen, more upside.
Savaiinaea B - Would have stayed put at 48 and taken Amos.
Phillips B
Marshall C - Thought he was a reach. We could have had Mbow or Rivers.
Trader C - Doesn't have NFL traits. Would have rather taken Gadsden or Horton.
Gordon B
Ewers A - Good value in the 7th round.
Biggers B - I like this pick, big athletic NT.
