POTENTIAL NFL TEAM FITS

The Los Angeles Rams have been tied to Conerly Jr. to replace their breakout offensive tackle Alaric Jackson, who they may lose to free agency. The Minnesota Vikings are linked to Harmon with their first round pick.

Could Johnson be drafted to the Denver Broncos to reunite with his brother, quarterback Bo Nix? A recent mock draft from Bleacher Report has Denver selecting Johnson in the third round to join Denver coach Sean Payton’s fast-paced offense, an intriguing possibility and a would be “dream come true” for Johnson.

The Dallas Cowboys want to draft a quarterback in the 2025 NFL Draft, according to executive vice president Stephen Jones and Gabriel could be a good fit. The Cowboys are set with Dak Prescott as starter but may need depth as both of Dallas’ backup quarterbacks Cooper Rush and Trey Lance are unrestricted free agents this offseason.

While quarterbacks Shedeur Sanders and Cam Ward may steal headlines in a battle of which quarterback will be drafted first – Gabriel is the most experienced quarterback in the draft, with all the tools to be successful in the NFL.

QUOTABLE

Oregon Ducks coach Dan Lanning raved about his former players who competed in the Senior Bowl, a group of NFL Draft hopefuls who have a chance to make Oregon history come April.

“They did an unbelievable job,” Lanning told Duck Insider. “We’re so grateful for the time that they gave us. It’s fun when you talk about those guys, some of those guys had the decision, do they come back or not? What’s the future look like? I think all of them, you know, appreciate the opportunity to come back, get better football, spend time with their teammates, and they’ve all performed really well.”

“Now our goal is to see how high every one of those guys can get drafted. Unbelievable humans that are also great football players, that some NFL team is going to be really lucky to have,” Lanning continued.

Where will Oregon’s players be drafted? The 2025 NFL Draft is April 24-26 at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
