Two Penn State Nittany Lions are projected to be top 10 picks in the 2025 NFL Draft. NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah released his second mock draft on Tuesday projecting the first 32 picks of the 2025 Draft.

Penn State had eight players selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, a class that was headlined by Olu Fashanu going 13th overall to the New York Jets.
