Mock draft season is in full swing as NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah released his latest round of predictions for the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Within his latest mock, Jeremiah predicted that a pair of Alabama players would hear their names called on day one.
Jeremiah projected that Crimson Tide offensive lineman, Tyler Booker, would come off the board at No. 13 to the Miami Dolphins.
“Booker was a rock in the middle of the Alabama offensive line and he would provide a much needed upgrade in Miami,” Jeremiah said in the piece.
Booker would be the third offensive lineman to come off the board according to Jeremiah with Texas’ Kelvin Banks Jr. and LSU’s Will Campbell being the only two selected higher.
The other Alabama player that would join Booker in the first round would be linebacker Jihaad Campbell who Jeremiah predicts to be selected by the Washington Commanders with the No. 29 pick.
“Campbell is one of my favorite players in the class,” Jeremiah said. “I believe you’ll see some teams work him out as an edge rusher this spring. When he’s allowed to rush, he flashes elite potential.”
Campbell was considered to be Alabama’s best defender in 2024 where the 20-year-old recorded 117 total tackles, 12 tackles for loss, five sacks, two pass deflections and one interception. Along with his explosive traits, he would be expected to be an immediate impact player on any defense at the next level.
The 2025 NFL Draft will begin on April 24 from Green Bay, Wis.
