Regarding the best player of 2025 NFL draftWe may not even know what position it will play at the next level. Travis Hunter of Colorado should be a choice among the first five in April, and the winner of the Heisman trophy played both in the corner half and the wide receiver under the head coach Deion Sanders.
Hunter was one of those rare double -meaning players. In 2024, he played 713 offensive snaps and 748 defensive snaps, then collected the Biletnikoff price as well as the defensive player of the Big 12 year. He captured 96 passes for 1,258 yards and 15 touchdown, while recording 36 plated In total, 11 defended passes and four interceptions on the defense.
We may have an overview of the place where Hunter will play most of the shots at the next level. For the 2025 Nfl Scouting combines, Hunter is listed as a defensive back. It’s notable, although CBS SPORTS NFL Insider Jonathan Jones reports Hunter could do wide receiver work during his professional day.
Wherever Hunter lands in the draft, expect it at least a little on both sides of the ball. Speaking of landing points, what teams would be the best adaptations for Hunter? This is what we are here to discuss.
The Titans were the worst football team last year and need both a wide receiver and the cornerback. Calvin Ridley is the only legitimate (and healthy) passing receiver under contract. In Corner, Chidobe Awuzie could be a victim of a cap while the Ended has disturbing health problems. Giving Brian Callahan a versatile and Dennard Wilson offensive part a qualified corner has meaning. Hunter is undoubtedly the most talented football player in the draft, and the Titans desperately need talent.
Shades of Jabrill Peppers? I doubt it. Hunter seems to be a better player with a more understood fit. Browns need help everywhere, and their lack of success in the field led Myles Garrett to want to go out. Hunter would immediately help any team, but the Browns could better replace Deshaun Watson – especially if Cleveland obtains his choice between Sheder Sanders and Cam Ward. The Browns could also get a shot at Penn State Pass Rusher Abdul Carter, which is considered by some as the best hope of this project. The unknown future of Garrett could make a real possibility.

If Hunter fell to No. 5 in total, the Jaguars should take it. Jacksonville has a major need in the corner, which is a reason why this defense ranked worse against the pass (257.4 yards authorized per match), and the second worst of total yards (389.9 yards authorized per game) last year. Naturally, the first year head coach Liam Coen would also like to use Hunter on the offensive side of the ball, which works because the jags could also use another weapon to combine with Brian Thomas Jr.
I am fascinated to see what the patriots make this offseason. They hired a favorite from the pre-season coach of the year in Mike Rabel, found a quarter of potential franchise in Drake Maye, have almost $ 130 million in the planned ceiling space- which leads the Nfl by a large margin – and maintain the overall choice n ° 4 in 2025 NFL draft. Like almost all the other teams on this list, the patriots have legitimate needs both with a large receiver and the cornerback, which Hunter corresponds. However, unlike other teams on this list, I would like to see Hunter play more width with New England.
Matthew Stafford, Malik Nabers and Travis Hunter. Who said right? With the Giants, I would consider Hunter play more cornering, but there will also be opportunities for Brian Daboll to use it in attack. Hunter is the kind of playmaker who can affect the game in the three phases. If the giants balance a job for staff or sign someone like Justin Fields, Hunter becomes even more an intriguing option in New York.
