Predictions about the first pick in the 2025 NFL Draft are in full swing. Analysts, fans, and bettors are desperately trying to predict who will be the first pick; everyone except Adam "Pacman" Jones. The Tennessee Titan legend knows which name will come out first on April 24.
Like every year, mock drafts jump left and right. Each media outlet and analyst tries to predict each team's picks in the seven rounds that make up the NFL draft. With as many criteria as there are people, each attempt is radically different, although there are some consensuses.
Most analysts agree that the Titans will keep their first pick and select one of the top quarterbacks in this class. Almost everyone points to Cam Ward as the pick, but others think it will be Shedeur Sanders. However, Jones says they are all wrong.
Pacman Jones' prediction
Speaking to TMZ Sports, the former Titans cornerback said his former team will on quarterbacks. According to Jones, Tennessee will go straight for this year's top prospect, Colorado Buffaloes dual-threatTravis Hunter.
"He will be the No. 1 pick," Jones said. Even though Tennessee is in desperate need of a quarterback after the failures of Will Levis and Mason Rudolph, Jones stressed that the team will take Hunter. "There's no way he's not going to be the No. 1 pick," he insisted.
The appeal of the 2024 Heisman Trophy winner is undeniable. As a receiver, he had 2,061 yards on 167 catches, 23 of them for touchdowns in three years of his college career, the last two with Colorado. As a cornerback, he tackled 80 opponents, 23 of them solo, and intercepted nine es.
Hunter can only play on one side of the ball
Although one of Hunter's big draws is his ability to play receiver and cornerback, Jones said that won't happen in the NFL. "There's no way he can play 170 plays in the NFL week in and week out, and practice three days a week. That sh*t is not happening," he said, saying he would use him only as a cornerback.
The 2025 NFL Draft is still more than two months away. A lot can happen in that time and free agency will radically change the landscape. Although Hunter is a great prospect, nothing is set in stone and his fate is yet to be revealed.
