Top 5 Penn State prospects to watch for in 2025 NFL Draft

5. Jaylen Reed, Defensive Back

Jaylen Reed brought grit at the safety position in the 2024/25 season. Reed showcased his run-blocking skills with the Nittany Lions.

Reed's biggest flaw is his lack of coverage skills. This flaw will likely see him drop to Day 3 before an NFL team takes a chance on him.

4. Julian Fleming, Wide Receiver

Julian Fleming is the leading Penn State wide receiver looking to enter the NFL in 2025. Fleming had a decent 2024/25 season as he helped the program reach the playoffs.

However, it's never a great sign for NFL scouts when a tight end beats out a wide receiver in pass catching categories. Hence, it's likely that Julian Fleming gets drafted in the seventh round at best.

3. Kevin Winston Jr., Defensive Back

Kevin Winston Jr. suffered a season ending injury in 2024. However, the versatile defensive back has elected to forgo the rest of his collegiate football eligibility in order to enter this year's draft.

Winston Jr. is talented enough to still hear his name on Day 2 of the draft. He has impressive ball catching skills, solid footwork, and is one of the best tacklers in his class.

2. Tyler Warren, Tight End

Tyler Warren is the "Brock Bowers" of the 2025 NFL draft. The Penn State superstar tight end was one of the finest offensive threats in the 2024/25 college football season.

Warren amassed a stat line of 1,355 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns. He's a sure-fire first round pick. Some analysts even have him off the board as early as the Top 10.

1. Abdul Carter, Edge Rusher

Abdul Carter is the most talented defensive player in the 2025 NFL draft. Carter is seen as a Micah Parsons-caliber prospect, one that'll be a Pro Bowl caliber player from Day 1 in the pros.

Carter will be off the board rather early in next month's draft. The question is whether the Tennessee Titans will draft him as the No. 1 pick or not.
