Bears Sign Colston Loveland, Four Other Draft Picks
The Bears have signed five of their 2025 draft picks, including first-round tight end Colston Loveland, according to a team announcement.
Loveland, the No. 10 pick, will receive $26.64MM over four years with a $16.01MM signing bonus, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Like all contracts for first-round selections, his deal is fully guaranteed with a fifth-year option for the 2029 season.
The Bears have veteran tight end Cole Kmet under contract through 2027, but they thought highly enough of Loveland to draft him with a top-10 pick. That suggests that new head coach Ben Johnson plans to use plenty of two tight-end sets in 2025, which could lean into Loveland’s primary skillset. Kmet could play as an inline tight end with Loveland flexing out to the slot, which will highlight his receiving strengths and help compensate for his weaknesses as a blocker.
In the long term, though, Loveland profiles as a starting three-down tight end, especially since Kmet has no guaranteed money on his deal past 2025. He could become a trade or cut candidate after this season if Loveland lives up to his draft billing with a strong rookie year.
The Bears also signed all four of their Day 3 picks: fourth-rounder Ruben Hyppolite II (No. 132), fifth-rounder Zah Frazier (No. 148), sixth-rounder Luke Newman (No. 195), and seventh-rounder Kyle Monangai (No. 233).

Granger is a former Division I basketball player attempting to convert to tight end under the tutelage of George Fant, who also played D-I basketball before embarking on his NFL career. A hamstring injury led to his release, according to ESPN’s David Newton.
Jets Sign First-Round T Armand Membou, Four Other Draftees
The Jets have signed first-round offensive tackle Armand Membou to a four-year rookie contract worth $31.9MM, per a team announcement. Like all first-round picks, the deal is fully guaranteed and contains a fifth-year option for 2029.
Membou will likely take over the Jets’ starting right tackle job right away after Morgan Moses left New York in free agency this offseason. The Missouri product will face some competition from former Day 3 picks Carter Warren and Max Mitchell, but his three years of starting experience in the SEC and elite athleticism should help him adjust to the NFL quickly. With 2024 first-rounder Olu Fashanu set to take over at left tackle, the Jets are hoping they’ve found bookends to their offensive line for the foreseeable future.
The Jets also announced the signing of four other draft picks: third-rounder Azareye’h Thomas (No. 73), fourth-rounder Malachi Moore (No. 130) and fifth-rounders Francisco Mauigoa (No. 163) and Tyler Baron (No. 176).
Thomas brings even more talent to a Jets secondary that was already a team bright spot in 2024. The Florida State product is a long, physical corner who lacks elite athleticism or ball production. He doesn’t have slot versatility, so he will likely start behind Sauce Gardner and Brandon Stephens on the depth chart. Still, Thomas’ instincts and competitiveness will have him pushing for starting snaps quickly; in the meantime, his special teams experience will allow him to contribute from Day 1.
Moore brings plenty of experience in the slot from his time at Alabama, but he played some of his best football in 2024 as a free safety. He showed good range in coverage and a quick trigger against the run, though he has average size and athleticism. The Jets are set to start former UDFA Tony Adams and free agent signing Andre Cisco at safety in 2025, but neither are under contract past this season. Moore should be able to carve out a rotational role as a rookie with a clear shot at a starting job in 2026. Like Thomas, he has plenty of experience on special teams that will give him more opportunities to see the field.
Mauigoa led Miami’s defense in 2023 and 2024 and racked up 178 tackles (35 for loss). The 22-year-old is a durable, instinctive linebacker who will need to work on getting off blocks and consistently tackling ballcarriers in the NFL. He’ll have time to do that in an experienced Jets linebacker room while he plays special teams as a rookie.
Baron, who played with Mauigoa in 2024, is an explosive edge rusher with 21.5 tackles for loss and 11.5 sacks across his final two college seasons. He has an enticing frame with long arms and a burgeoning understanding of how to use them to beat blocks. The NFL will test Baron’s ability to set the edge against the run and add more power to his game. The Jets’ pair of 2022 first-round edge defenders – Will McDonald and Jermaine Johnson – profile as the team’s starters for the foreseeable future, but Baron could grow into a rotational pass rusher with more potential if he grows as a run defender.
The Jets have two draft picks who have yet to sign their rookie contracts: second-round tight end Mason Taylor and fourth-round wide receiver Arian Smith. Here is a full list of their 2025 draft class:
- Round 1, No. 7: Armand Membou (T, Missouri) (signed)
- Round 2, No. 42: Mason Taylor (TE, LSU)
- Round 3, No. 73: Azareye’h Thomas (CB, Florida State) (signed)
- Round 4, No. 110: Arian Smith (WR, Georgia)
- Round 4, No. 130 (from Lions through Broncos and Eagles): Malachi Moore (S, Alabama) (signed)
- Round 5, No. 162 (from Rams through Steelers): Francisco Mauigoa (LB, Miami) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 176 (from Ravens): Tyler Baron (DE, Miami) (signed)
Raiders Sign Ashton Jeanty, Seven Other Draft Choices
The Raiders have signed No. 6 overall pick Ashton Jeanty to a fully guaranteed four-year rookie contract worth $35.9MM, per a team announcement.
The former Boise State Bronco will receive a $22.75MM signing bonus as part of the deal, which includes a fifth-year option in 2029. He will immediately take over as the Raiders’ lead back and hope to continue his stellar performance in the NFL.
Jeanty’s contract shows how taking a running back in the top 10 isn’t as cost-effective as targeting other positions. His $8.97MM APY is the 11th-highest at the position, while No. 7 pick Armand Membou‘s $7.98M APY ranks 40th among offensive tackles.
By no means does that mean that Jeanty was a bad pick or won’t live up to his rookie contract. All indicators – his production, durability, and leadership – point to the opposite. He’s a true three-down back who can shoulder a large load as a rusher while contributing in the passing game as a blocker and receiver. After leading the Mountain West with 1,347 yards in 2023, he set his sights higher in 2024 and led the FBS with 2,601 yards, plus 30 total touchdowns and 6.95 yards per carry.
Las Vegas is also a favorable landing spot for Jeanty. The Raiders stabilized their quarterback situation by trading for Geno Smith this offseason, but new head coach Pete Carroll still has an affinity for running the football. Jeanty will have minimal competition for touches in a backfield with Raheem Mostert, Zamir White, and Dylan Laube.
The Raiders signed seven other members of their rookie class: third-rounders Caleb Rogers (No. 98) and Charles Grant (No. 99), fourth-rounder Tonka Hemingway (No. 135), sixth-rounders J.J. Pegues (No. 180), Tommy Mellott (No. 213), Cam Miller (No. 215), and seventh-rounder Cody Lindenberg (No. 222).
Rogers played both guard and tackle at Texas Tech, but his length will likely restrict him to the interior in the NFL where he could compete for a starting job right away. Grant is a physically-impressive left tackle prospect who could be a long-term replacement for Kolton Miller.
Hemingway and Pegues will both look to carve out rotational roles behind the Raiders’ veteran defensive linemen. Both players offer intriguing versatility; Hemingway’s undersized, athletic frame could see him take some snaps from wider alignments, while Pegues excelled as a short-yardage weapon on offense at Ole Miss.
Mellott played quarterback at Montana State but will play receiver in the NFL. His athleticism and playmaking instincts could help him get some designed touches early on as he grows as a route-runner and pass-catcher. Miller will stay under center in Las Vegas, likely as the third-string quarterback behind Smith and Aidan O’Connell. The North Dakota State product earned the endorsement of Raiders minority owner Tom Brady during the draft, according to The Athletic’s Dan Pompei.
Lindenberg will compete for a roster spot in a Raiders linebacker room that lacks a clear leader after the departure of Robert Spillane. Lindenberg is a solid athlete with good size who can contribute on special teams right away as he works his processing up to NFL speed.
The Raiders have yet to sign three draft picks to rookie contracts: second-rounder Jack Bech, third-rounder Darien Porter, and fourth-rounder Dont’e Thornton Jr. Here’s a full list of their draft class:
Las Vegas Raiders
- Round 1, No. 6: Ashton Jeanty (RB, Boise State) (signed)
- Round 2, No. 58 (from Texans): Jack Bech (WR, TCU)
- Round 3, No. 68: Darien Porter (CB, Iowa State)
- Round 3, No. 98 (from Dolphins)*: Caleb Rogers (G, Texas Tech) (signed)
- Round 3, No. 99 (from Giants through Texans)*: Charles Grant (T, William & Mary) (signed)
- Round 4, No. 108: Dont’e Thornton (WR, Tennessee)
- Round 4, No. 135 (from Dolphins)*: Tonka Hemingway ((DT, South Carolina) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 180: J.J. Pegues (DT, Ole Miss) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 213*: Tommy Mellott (QB, Montana State) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 215*: Cam Miller (QB, North Dakota State) (signed)
- Round 7, No. 222: Cody Lindenberg (LB, Minnesota) (signed)
Jets WR Allen Lazard ‘In Play’ For Steelers
After trading George Pickens to the Cowboys, the Steelers could be in the market to add depth at wide receiver. Their pursuit of Aaron Rodgers may point them towards one of his favorite targets: Allen Lazard.
Lazard is currently under contract with the Jets, but he is “‘in play’ to be traded to the Steelers,” according to Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio. The 29-year-old wideout started his NFL career with Rodgers in Green Bay and was signed by the Jets in 2023 as part of their effort to bring the four-time MVP to New York.
Lazard put up career-worst numbers in 2023 while catching passes from three different quarterbacks following Rodgers’ Achilles injury. He was a healthy scratch for the last two games of the season but rebounded in 2024 with Rodgers back under center. Lazard missed five games due to injury and finished the season with 37 receptions on 60 targets for 530 yards and six touchdowns.
The Steelers have kept in touch with Rodgers since his visit and remain “hopeful” that he will play for the team this year, per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. Trading draft capital for Lazard would be another indication of Pittsburgh’s confidence that Rodgers will put pen to paper eventually.
Moving on from Lazard likely wouldn’t be an issue for the Jets after Rodgers’ departure this offseason. Their new regime signed two veterans with similar skillsets in Josh Reynolds and Tyler Johnson, per ESPN’s Rich Cimini, which could make Lazard surplus to requirements.
Lazard’s acceptance of a $7.5MM pay cut earlier this offseason makes his contract far more attractive in a trade. His 2025 salary is now just $2.25MM with $1.75MM fully-guaranteed and another $250k available in per-game roster bonuses, per OverTheCap. That’s more money than the Steelers saved by trading Pickens; while they still need to budget for Rodgers, they can still certainly afford to add Lazard to their ledger.
The Jets, meanwhile, will have to account for $6.55MM in dead money if they trade Lazard. A pre-June 1 trade would put it all on the books in 2025 and cost them an extra $1.9MM against the salary cap, while a post-June 1 trade would push $4.37MM to 2026 with $2.43MM of overall cap savings this year.
Lazard’s connection to Rodgers will no doubt interest the Steelers, especially if one acquisition would beget the other. However, they are still counting on a jump from 2024 third-rounder Roman Wilson after his disappointing rookie season, per Fowler. Injuries limited Wilson to just one appearance with five snaps and zero targets in 2024. A healthy offseason could give him a better chance at capitalizing on his impressive physical profile, especially if he’s catching passes from Rodgers instead of Mason Rudolph.
Pittsburgh now has three 2026 third-rounders they could use to add WR depth, as noted by Fowler, though it’s hard to imagine Lazard fetching more than a Day 3 pick. He might be a cheaper alternative to some of their other targets, which may be the team’s preference after their substantial investment in D.K. Metcalf. Using a late-round pick to acquire Lazard would leave the Steelers enough premium draft picks in 2026 to add another receiver on Day 2 or even move up in the first round for a quarterback.
NFL Draft Pick Signings: 5/7/25
Today’s 2025 NFL Draft pick signings as we begin to get into rookie minicamps. Here is another group of mid- to late-rounders who signed their four-year rookie contracts today:
Denver Broncos
- WR Pat Bryant (third round, Illinois)
- DE Sai’vion Jones (third round, LSU)
- OLB Que Robinson (fourth round, Alabama)
- P Jeremy Crawshaw (sixth round, Florida)
Houston Texans
- CB Jaylin Smith (third round, USC)
The Broncos followed up yesterday’s signing of tight end Caleb Lohner (seventh round, Utah) with rookie contracts for two more of their 2025 draft picks.
Bryant’s 6-foot-2, 204-pound frame, jumping ability, and strong hands make him a reliable receiver at the catch point, but his below-average athleticism will limit his separation in the NFL. He posted 984 yards and 10 touchdowns in his senior year at Illinois but will face an uphill battle for playing time as a rookie in a crowded Broncos receiver room.
The Broncos used a sixth-round pick on Crenshaw after moving on from veteran Riley Dixon this offseason. Barring injury or a disastrous training camp, the former Gator will take over as Denver’s punter this season. He was the only punter selected in the 2025 draft.
The Texans surprised many by taking Smith in the third round after he was projected to be a Day 3 pick. His size may restrict him to nickel duties in the NFL, a role he filled in 2022 and 2023 for the Trojans. He played on the outside in 2024 and could still compete for a boundary role in Houston, who just extended safety/nickel defender Jalen Pitre this offseason.
Broncos Considered Trading Up For Ashton Jeanty
The Broncos explored multiple trades during the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, including a blockbuster move into the top-10 for Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty.
Denver made no secret of their desire to add a running back during the lead-up to the draft, but the price to trade up was ultimately too high. Snagging Jeanty likely would have required the fifth overall pick considering his pre-draft links to the Raiders, who owned the next selection. Moving up 15 slots from the No. 20 pick could have cost multiple future first-rounders, which was likely a non-starter for the Broncos after losing their top picks in 2022 and 2023 to the ill-fated Russell Wilson trade.
Instead, Denver stood pat at No. 20 and selected Texas cornerback Jahdae Barron, who was widely seen as the best player on the board. Terry Joseph, Barron’s defensive pass game coordinator at Texas and cousin of Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph, endorsed the versatile defensive back, per Fowler, giving the team even more confidence in their pick.
The Broncos were also interested in Ohio State wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, who went off the board one pick before they were on the clock. Had neither Egbuka nor Barron been available, the Broncos were prepared to trade back for a running back in the first round, discussing terms with the Texans for their pick at No. 25.
In that case, Denver’s target likely would have been another former Buckeye in TreVeyon Henderson, who went to the Patriots with the 38th pick before the Broncos were back on the board. They pivoted to UCF running back R.J. Harvey with their next pick at the end of the second round, allowing them to come away from the draft with a coveted running back without a costly trade up in the first round.
Trey Hendrickson Could Hold Out Amid Contract Stalemate With Bengals
The Bengals are at a stalemate with Trey Hendrickson. The team has yet to meet his demand for a contract extension or a trade, which could lead him to hold out this summer, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
Hendrickson is due $16MM in 2025, the final year of his contract. After leading the league in sacks on the way to a first-team All-Pro selection in 2024, he wants a new deal that pays him as one of the league’s top edge rushers and keeps him in Cincinnati for the foreseeable future. If the Bengals won’t pay him, he’d prefer to be traded to a team that will.
If the team doesn’t meet either of those demands, Hendrickson seems prepared to skip OTAs and potentially continue a holdout into training camp. That would leave the Bengals without their best defensive player as they install a new scheme under new defensive coordinator Al Golden.
Missing Hendrickson during training camp would be concerning, but manageable. An extended holdout into the regular season, however, could be disastrous for a Cincinnati defense that lacks another pass-rushing threat. Hendrickson was responsible for 17.5 of the team’s 36 sacks last year; no other Bengal posted more than 5.0. That should give him significant leverage in the coming months, especially since the team declined to add any proven pass-rushing talent this offseason.
The Bengals did draft Texas A&M’s Shemar Stewart, a pick that has largely been viewed in the context of Hendrickson’s contract situation. While the two had similar frames and athletic profiles as prospects, Stewart’s lack of college production makes it unlikely he can make up for the potential absence of his veteran teammate right away. The Bengals already needed a second starter on the edge after parting ways with Sam Hubbard this offseason, so selecting Stewart was likely more about finding a pass-rushing partner for Hendrickson rather than a direct replacement.
Cincinnati has engaged with Hendrickson on an extension, and their rejection of multiple trade offers indicates a desire to get a deal done. However, major financial commitments to Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Joe Burrow may deter the notoriously frugal franchise from giving a long-term market-level deal to Hendrickson. He’s stated a desire to stay in Cincinnati, but if the team has no designs to keep him past 2025 or trade him to a new team this summer, he may have to settle for a one-year raise and hope to cash in as a free agent next year.
Browns Couldn’t Pass Up Value Of Shedeur Sanders Pick
It wasn’t a surprise that Shedeur Sanders ended up in Cleveland by the conclusion of the 2025 NFL Draft. After all, the Browns had a glaring need at quarterback and extensively scouted the Colorado product during the pre-draft process.
The real shocker was that the Browns landed Sanders on Day 3 after already picking a quarterback in the third round.
The team arrived at the conclusion that Sanders wasn’t worth the No. 2 pick, per Daniel Oyefusi and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, but he was still considered a potential target late in the first round or early in the second. That especially seemed like the case when the Browns added extra draft capital in their trade with the Jaguars, positioning them to add a quarterback on Day 2.
That theory turned out to be half-right. Cleveland drafted a QB with the 94th overall pick, but it was Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel, not Sanders. His slide continued into Day 3, where the Browns decided his value was too good to pass up. They traded up to the 144th pick to select Sanders, ending his fall and landing a potential future starter in the fifth round.
“We felt like it got to a point where he was probably mispriced relative to the draft,” said Berry after the pick (via Oyefusi). “Really, the acquisition cost was pretty light, and it’s a guy that we think can outproduce his draft slot.”
Drafting Gabriel made it seem like they had no intention of bringing Sanders to Cleveland. Browns personnel believed that other teams had a Day 2 grade on the polarizing prospect and were thus surprised when he fell past the third round. When Sanders’ name wasn’t called early on Day 3, general manager Andrew Berry started working the phones to move up, even after selecting Gabriel the day before
Cleveland’s front office didn’t spend time reevaluating Sanders’ talent or reassessing his ranking on their board. Nor were they pushed by team owner Jimmy Haslam to make the pick, at least according to Berry.
Instead, according to Oyefusi, Berry “worked hard to trade up” and eventually delivered the news to Sanders via video call. His father, Hall of Fame cornerback and Colorado head coach Deion Sanders, later called Berry as well after getting to know each other during the pre-draft process. Deion also has a good relationship with Browns quarterbacks coach Bill Musgrave after playing together for the 49ers in 1994.
Deion’s legacy loomed large during the months leading up to the draft. He famously rejected a written test from the Giants during his own pre-draft interviews in 1989, confidently (and correctly) asserting that he would be drafted long before New York was on the clock.
That attitude seemed to carry over to his son. During and after Shedeur Sanders’ fall, reports emerged that he struggled in his interviews and visits with teams, especially the Giants. According to Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio, Sanders approached his meetings with prospective future employers as if he was being “recruited” as opposed to being “interviewed.” That caused him to be wiped from several teams’ boards, including the Steelers.
Despite persistent links throughout March and April, Sanders was never a “real option” for Pittsburgh, according to Mark Kaboly of The Pat McAfee Show. The Steelers were more interested in Notre Dame’s Riley Leonard and Ohio State’s Will Howard, the latter of whom they drafted in the sixth round.
Sanders’ interactions with the Browns were reportedly more positive than with other teams, giving Berry and head coach Kevin Stefanski the confidence that adding one of the most talked-about prospects of the year could only help their uncertain quarterback situation. Cleveland has no clear starter for 2025 or beyond, giving Sanders an opportunity he may not have had with another other team.
If the Browns can turn a fifth-round pick into a franchise quarterback, they’ll have cleared a major hurdle in recovering from the disastrous Deshaun Watson trade and bringing the team back to competitive relevancy.
Ravens Sign 9 Of 11 2025 Draft Picks
The Ravens have officially signed nine of their league-high 11 selections in the 2025 NFL Draft, per a team announcement.
Today’s signings include third-rounder Emery Jones, fourth-rounder Teddye Buchanan, fifth-rounder Carson Vinson, and seventh-rounder Garrett Dellinger. The team also signed all five of their sixth-round picks: Bilhal Kone, Tyler Loop, LaJohntay Wester, Aeneas Peebles, and Robert Longerbeam.
As prescribed by the NFL’s collective bargaining agreement, all nine players have four years on their first contracts. With escalating cap hits for key players in the next few years, the Ravens are hoping that several members of their rookie class can play significant roles in the team’s future.
Jones and Dellinger both started for LSU’s stellar offensive line across the last three years at right tackle and left guard, respectively. Jones’ best fit might be at guard, where he could compete for a starting job as a rookie. He’ll also provide valuable depth behind Roger Rosengarten at right tackle, though he’ll have to make significant strides to have a chance at replacing Ronnie Stanley on the blindside at the end of his rookie deal. Dellinger will be fighting for a roster spot before he gets a shot at a starting job, but he brings a high-floor as a backup guard, the likes of which the Ravens have consistently turned into starters in recent years.
The Ravens prized Buchanan’s athleticism and intangibles enough to prioritize him on Day 3, but predictions of him supplanting Trenton Simpson in the starting lineup may be premature. After just one year at the FBS level, Buchanan face another, more significant jump to the speed of the NFL, which is especially significant at the linebacker position. He’ll likely be a core special teams contributor as a rookie, but his passing down abilities in coverage and as a blitzer will give him a strong chance at long-term playing time.
Baltimore double-dipped on Day 3 cornerbacks when they had 11 picks in 2022, taking a boundary corner in Jalyn Armour-Davis and a prospective nickel in Damarion Williams. They did so again this year with the long, speedy Kone and a likely slot-convert in Longerbeam. The Ravens have plenty of defensive back depth after signing Chidobie Awuzie and drafting Starks, so their Day 3 DBs will likely begin on special teams as they acclimate to their new defense and train to battle for starting roles in the future.
General manager Eric DeCosta values all of his draft picks, so using one on Loop is a clear sign that the team is seriously considering replacing Justin Tucker this year. Loop was widely considered the most powerful kicker in the draft, but he made less than 80% of his field goal attempts in his last two years at Arizona. He’ll need to quickly take to the tutelage of special teams coach Randy Brown to win a roster spot.
Head coach John Harbaugh said before the draft that the team wanted to add a punt returner, and they found one in Wester. He returned 66 punts for 740 yards (11.2 yards per return) in college and could take over a similar role right away in Baltimore. The Colorado product will be blocked on the offensive depth chart at first, but he was very productive in college and could develop into a rotational contributor out of the slot.
The Ravens surprised many by waiting until the end of Day 3 to address the interior of their defensive line after the retirement of Michael Pierce this offseason. Peebles is too undersized to fill Pierce’s role as a behemoth, space-eating nose tackle, but his pass-rushing chops could help him carve out a situational role as a rookie. While he may never be big enough to anchor the defensive line against the run, his athleticism and active hands give him three-down potential in the long-term.
The Ravens still have to sign their first two picks – first-round safety Malaki Starks and second-round edge rusher Mike Green. Starks’ fully-guaranteed contract should be a formality, but Green may wait for players drafted ahead of him to sign to ensure he gets a commensurate guarantee structure.
Here is a full list of Baltimore’s 2025 draft class:
- Round 1, No. 27: Malaki Starks (S, Georgia)
- Round 2, No. 59: Mike Green (OLB, Marshall)
- Round 3, No. 91: Emery Jones (T, LSU) (signed)
- Round 4, No. 129: Teddye Buchanan (LB, Cal) (signed)
- Round 5, No. 141* (from Titans): Carson Vinson (T, Alabama A&M) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 178 (from Titans): Bilhal Kone (CB, Western Michigan) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 186 (from Jets): Tyler Loop (K, Arizona) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 203: LaJohntay Wester (WR, Colorado) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 210*: Aeneas Peebles (DT, Virginia Tech) (signed)
- Round 6, No. 212*: Robert Longerbeam (CB, Rutgers) (signed)
- Round 7, No. 243: Garrett Dellinger (G, LSU) (signed)
