NFL scouts pick 14 sleepers for the 2025 draft: Which prospects could rise into Round 1?
We asked NFL scouts to select prospects in next year's draft class who aren't being talked about enough. We have 14 names to know.
Let's finish with a quarterback who could take the leap. In nearly each of the past five years, a passer seemingly has come out of nowhere to land in Round 1. At least one NFL general manager says Weigman is that guy for 2025.
"I am telling you right now, Weigman will be the breakout quarterback this year," said a GM who has done advance work on this quarterback class. "He'll be the guy everyone is asking, 'Where'd he come from?' next spring."
The Texas A&M junior played in just four games last season before suffering a season-ending foot injury. In those four games, though, he was crisp with eight touchdown passes to two interceptions while throwing for 979 yards and completing 68.9% of his passes. The 6-foot-3, 215-pounder can also move outside the pocket and had two rushing scores.
Weigman has generated a lot of buzz in the NFL agent community, too, with many eager to see how he looks with a full season and with a new coaching staff, led by Mike Elko.
