The best-case scenarios and biggest flaws for the 2025 quarterback draft class

The Athletic Football Show: A show about the NFL

We've enjoyed two straight drafts with star-studded quarterback classes. This year's class...is not that. Still, it provides its fair share of intrigue. The Titans seem to have settled on Cam Ward as the top pick in the draft. Shedeur Sanders could go with the second pick, or in the second round. Jaxson Dart, Tyler Shough and Jalen Milroe all could find themselves in advantageous spots this summer. Robert Mays, Derrik Klassen and Dane Brugler dig deep into the 2025 quarterback class on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.

The guys also discuss the Russell Wilson and Stefon Diggs signings, and how those moves affect the draft.
