CBS Sports’ 2025 NFL draft big board includes five Georgia Bulldogs among the top 50 prospects. Defensive end Mykel Williams stands out as the top-rated edge rusher and is listed as the fourth overall prospect. Williams, anticipated to play a significant role at outside linebacker this season, is also a preseason All-American.
Quarterback Carson Beck, ranked sixth, is the highest-rated quarterback on the board. With quarterbacks being first overall picks in six of the last seven drafts, Beck is a strong candidate to continue this trend. Ryan Wilson of CBS notes that Beck, due to his athleticism, ability to process plays, and precise arm, has a strong chance of being the top pick. Wilson highlights Beck’s skills in making accurate throws into tight windows as particularly promising for an NFL career.
Safety Malaki Starks, another Georgia player, is ranked 20th and is the top safety on the list. Like Williams, Starks is a preseason All-American and has been a starter since his freshman year.
Tight end Oscar Delp is positioned at 38th, though he has not yet garnered significant draft buzz. However, Delp has the potential to enhance Georgia’s reputation for producing top tight ends in consecutive drafts.
Linebacker Smael Mondon, surprisingly ranked 42nd, is noted for his potential despite a season marred by injuries. While the linebacker position has seen a decrease in value in recent drafts, Mondon’s playmaking abilities make him a noteworthy prospect.
