Gators In The 2025 NFL Draft

I thought Montrell would fair better. I'm no scout for sure but he was our complete RB. I guess something in his running style didn't suit the pros? I guess I was thinking maybe 4th round. What am I missing?

 

To God's ears Rick. If our only position deficiency and the staff can coach through it we might be okay- we have to be. What would we give for two more experienced true DTs right now.

 

First time in 30 years not to have someone in the first three rounds.

 

Were it not for NIL, the great equalizer, that would leave a mark on the recruiting trail. Here's to seeing more of our players valued next draft.

 

Agreed, 28 RBs were taken in the draft, I don't think there were 28 better than him.

 

So Happy for Mertz. Considering all he has been through. Hope he parlays the opportunity into checks and perhaps an entry into coaching.

 

True but UF has now had at least one player drafted every year since 67 (The modern NFL era) Only 2 other teams can say that. Michigan being one and I don't recall the other.

 

USC is the other.

 

94 was the last time and i dont think it left a mark.

 

Wouldn’t mind if he found his way back to the Gators’ coaching staff

 

DJ had high praise for his mentorship
