The countdown is over—tonight’s the night! The 2025 NFL Draft takes center stage in Green Bay, and the anticipation could power Lambeau Field’s lights for a week straight.

Titans fans can officially exhale: despite swirling rumors, Tennessee’s GM Mike Borgonzi put the kibosh on any last-minute trade drama for the first overall pick. The Titans are staying put, which is about as rare as a quarterback who never fumbles a snap these days.

Speaking of quarterbacks, this year’s draft class is all about the signal callers. It’s always a gamble—just ask fans who bought a jersey with the wrong name on the back. Recent drafts have shown that some picks turn into legends, while others, well, let’s just say they keep sports talk radio in business.

One prospect drawing major attention is Ashton Jeanty, who bulldozed his way to the second-most rushing yards in a single college season. The former Boise State star is ready for the spotlight and even has his Roger Goodell greeting planned out. Here’s hoping he doesn’t go for the awkward half-hug.

Shedeur Sanders is another hot name, with projections swinging wildly from top-three pick to second round. The former Colorado QB hinted at his likely destination, but with draft night, you never know until that call comes in.

Tetairoa McMillan, a receiver with first-round expectations, is already making it clear: he’s ready to deliver wherever he lands. That’s confidence—and probably a good thing, considering rookie receivers usually need GPS to find the end zone their first season.

Draft night always has its share of unforgettable moments. Just ask Clay Matthews, who was drafted by the Packers in 2009—only for his mom to think he was headed to the Patriots. Oops! Family draft parties: proof that nobody, not even mom, can keep up with all the league’s twists and turns.

Travis Hunter stirs debate with his dream of becoming a two-way NFL player. Offense or defense? Why not both? If anyone can pull double duty, it might be him—though his future coach’s blood pressure may not agree.

The Green Bay–Detroit rivalry is still alive and talking, with Lions president Rod Wood taking a playful jab as the draft comes to Packers territory. You’ve got to love some good, old-fashioned football taunting—it’s basically a sport within the sport.

A somber note for longtime fans: Steve "Mongo" McMichael, the legendary Chicago Bears defender and Hall of Famer, has passed away at 67 after a battle with ALS. The NFL community is remembering a one-of-a-kind force on and off the field.

Beyond the draft, the sports world is buzzing over a White House statement slamming a lawsuit against the Trump administration regarding transgender athletes in women’s sports. Officials called the suit "creepy and anti-woman," adding extra heat to an already fiery national debate.

Meanwhile, Maine state Rep. Laurel Libby is pushing back, filing an emergency appeal over being censured for her stance on transgender athletes in sports. The legal battles around this topic show no signs of slowing down.

Tonight, all eyes are on Green Bay for picks, predictions, and probably a few more surprises. With expert analysis, live reactions, and enough mock drafts to fill a playbook, the only thing certain is that someone’s about to have their football dreams come true.
