2025 NFL Draft: When will the former Razorbacks be selected?

GREEN BAY, Wisc. (KNWA/KFTA) — Over the next three days, 257 names will be called in the 2025 NFL Draft, where at least three former Razorbacks are expected to be selected.

Among those expected to be drafted, defensive end Landon Jackson is projected to be the first former Razorback to be selected.

ESPN NFL Draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. has Jackson as the 68th best prospect in his final big board rankings, and fellow ESPN NFL analyst Field Yates projects Jackson to be drafted in the second round of the draft by the Kansas City Chiefs.

“Kansas City will always be in the business of adding pass rushers, and Jackson has terrific length and plays with one of the best motors in the class,” Yates wrote in his April 15 mock draft.

Teslaa had a strong NFL Combine in March and Senior Bowl game in February, boosting his draft stock considerably.

Armstrong led the SEC in receiving yards last season with 1,140 yards on 78 receptions and one touchdown.

Chad Reuter, a draft analyst for NFL.com, has Teslaa projected to go in the sixth round to the Washington Commanders and Armstrong to the Cleveland Browns, also in round six.

Kiper Jr. has Teslaa and Armstrong as the 22nd and 36th-best WR draft prospects on his big board.

Defensive tackle Eric Gregory could also be drafted. A mock draft from Pro Football Focus had the Baltimore Ravens drafting Gregory in the seventh round.
