The 2025 NFL Draft is nearly here, set to begin Thursday in Green Bay. Former Alabama football guard Tyler Booker will be in attendance, as a potential first-round pick according to many recent mock drafts.
The first round will begin Thursday, with the second and third on Friday and the final four rounds Saturday. Ahead of the event, here’s where Booker is landing in recent mock drafts.
ESPN– No. 47 overall, Arizona Cardinals
Field Yates has Booker in the second round, where he thinks the Cardinals could use Booker’s talents to protect Kyler Murray. Yates also points out Booker’s ability in run-blocking, which he thinks is higher than most other offensive linemen in the draft class.
ESPN– No. 25 overall, Houston Texans
Jordan Reid has Booker in the first round of his most recent mock draft. Reid thinks the young guard could fit in well with a new-look Houston offensive line, built to protect young star quarterback CJ Stroud
Pro Football Focus– No. 52 overall, Seattle Seahawks (via trade with Pittsburgh Steelers
The PFF projection is lower than most on Booker, placing him in the second round. The mock draft has the Seahawks using the second round to rebuild their interior offensive line, with Georgia center Jared Wilson also going to Seattle at No. 50 overall.
CBS Sports– No. 12 overall, Dallas Cowboys
Ryan Wilson projected Booker as the first Alabama player off the board in his April 18 mock draft. Wilson had Booker as the first interior offensive lineman drafted.
NFL.com– No. 28 overall, Detroit Lions
Draft analyst Chad Reuter sends Booker to Detroit toward the end of the first round. He notes that Booker’s versatility could make him appeal to the Lions, one of the top teams in the league last season.
NFL.com– No. 18 overall, Seattle Seahawks
Eric Edholm, like PFF, projected that Booker will be taken by Seattle, albeit much higher. He has Booker coming off the board one spot ahead of his Alabama teammate, linebacker Jihaad Campbell, who he thinks will be taken by Tampa Bay at No. 19 overall.
