With the 2024 NFL Draft showcasing an unprecedented number of top quarterbacks, college football is poised to unveil another talented group of signal-callers in 2025. Here are five standout quarterbacks to keep an eye on as they navigate the upcoming season and build their draft stock.
The son of legendary Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, Shedeur Sanders has already emerged as a highly touted quarterback prospect. Despite Colorado's struggles last season, Sanders showcased his impressive mobility, confidence, accuracy, and arm strength. With a strong offensive line in place, Sanders has the potential to elevate his game and solidify his status as a first-round draft pick.
Leading the Texas Longhorns to the College Football Playoff, Quinn Ewers showcased his exceptional talent. With another year under head coach Steve Sarkisian, a quarterback guru, Ewers aims to improve his footwork and deep-ball accuracy and fulfill his potential as the top quarterback in his high school class.
A prototypical pocket passer, Carson Beck returns to Georgia for a fifth season. With his precise mechanics, ability to handle pressure, and impressive completion rate, Beck has all the qualities teams look for in a quarterback. Experience will be key for Beck as he aims to solidify a first-round selection.
Taking over the Crimson Tide offense under new head coach Kalen DeBoer, Jalen Milroe has the potential to elevate his draft stock significantly. With his mobility and passing ability, Milroe has the tools to be a Heisman Trophy contender and a potential first-round draft pick.
After a standout season at Washington State, Cameron Ward transferred to Miami. With his experience and impressive arm strength, Ward has the potential to raise his draft stock. Playing in the competitive ACC, Ward will need to perform at a high level to earn the attention of NFL scouts.
These five quarterbacks represent just a glimpse of the talented signal-callers who will be showcased in college football next season. As they navigate their respective campaigns, their performances will be closely scrutinized as teams evaluate their potential for the 2025 NFL Draft.
