The Reese’s Senior Bowl is under way and it won’t be long before the NFL Combine and Pro Days have their time, too. It’s NFL Draft season and we’re on to 2025. Based on recent projections, it looks like Georgia has a great shot to get three players in the first round. Out of the nine mock drafts we looked at, all nine of them had the same three Bulldogs getting taken on day one.

Over half of those mock drafts had those three Georgia players coming off the board in the top 20 and one has all three getting selected in the top 15. Time will tell if those projections standup, but DawgsHQ is providing a look at where each of those Georgia players, all on defense, are projected in each draft.
