Among the handful of steals that came out of the 2025 NFL draft was safety Nick Emmanwori, who helped the Seahawks win the Super Bowl after the team took him in the second round.
I’m sure multiple teams had regrets about their first-round selections after seeing what Emmanwori did for the Seahawks as a rookie. Xavier Watts was another safety who impressed in his first year, and he went to the Falcons in the third round. Bulldozing running back Cameron Skattebo was nabbed in the fourth round by the Giants, and productive running back Jacory “Bill” Croskey-Merritt waited until pick No. 245 in the seventh round to learn he was headed to the Commanders.
