New Las Vegas Raiders head coach Pete Carroll is hoping he can turn the fortunes of the Raiders around sooner rather than later. Carroll brought in quarterback Geno Smith to help bridge the gap and make Las Vegas competitive. We took this in mind with our latest seven-round mock update for the 2025 NFL draft.
First round - RB Ashton Jeanty
Second round - S Xavier Watts - Notre Dame
Third round - DT Omar Norman-Lott - Tennessee
Fourth round - WR Isaiah Bond - Texas
Fourth round - QB Dillon Gabriel - Oregon
Sixth round - OT Logan Brown - Kansas
Sixth round - EDGE Fadil Diggs - Syracuse
Sixth round - CB Tommi Hill - Nebraska
Seventh round - WR Efton Chism III - Eastern Washington
This mock draft passes on a quarterback in the first round instead going for feature back Ashton Jeanty. Jeanty has a chance to put up huge numbers and give the Raiders the type of weapon who balances out the offense. Seapking of offense, the fourth round yields speedy wide receiver Isaiah Bond and hyper-athletic quarterback Dillon Gabriel.
On defense, the addition of defensive tackle Omar Norman-Lott gives Christian wilkins a fellow playmaker on the inside. But the addition of safety Xavier Watts might be the value pick of the draft with his ability to make plays in the passing game.
