Four Georgia Bulldogs are projected to go in the first round of the 2025 NFL draft. ESPN NFL draft expert Jordan Reid recently released an updated NFL mock draft.

Reid predicts that Georgia quarterback Carson Beck will be the first UGA player off the board despite some of Beck's recent interception struggles. Beck is projected to go No. 10 to the New York Giants. Beck is Reid's third quarterback off the board behind Shedeur Sanders and Cam Ward.

"I'm expecting the Giants to start over at signal-caller," said Reid. "Beck is a polished pocket passer who throws on time and with precision (67.9% completion rate)."

Beck has a chance to continue to elevate his NFL draft stock over the next several months. He has looked better at extending plays this season, but he has been a little bit out of sync with Georgia receivers in recent weeks,

Next, Reid has Georgia edge rusher Mykel Williams going No. 13 to the Arizona Cardinals. "Williams began the season as my top-ranked prospect, but he missed some time with a Grade 2 left ankle sprain," said Reid.

Williams returned to form on Saturday against the Texas Longhorns. He and Jalon Walker burned Texas offensive tackle Kelvin Banks and company several times as the Bulldogs accumulated seven sacks.

With the next pick (No. 14), Reid predicts that the Indianapolis Colts will draft Georgia safety Malaki Starks. Starks is Reid's top ranked safety.

"The No. 6 prospect on my board, Starks is instinctive on the back end and a dependable tackler in run support. Sure, safeties have become somewhat devalued, but Starks is an outlier who is worthy of a top-15 pick," said Reid.  Starks has 39 tackles and one interception this season.

Reid's final Georgia Bulldog to go in the first round is outside linebacker Jalon Walker. Reid has Walker going No. 17 to the Philadelphia Eagles, who love drafting Georgia Bulldogs.

Of course, this ESPN mock draft was created before Georgia's 30-15 win at Texas, so Walker could be selected even sooner.

"Walker is a hybrid player; at 6-foot-2 and 245 pounds, he's too small to play on the edge on base downs," said Reid. "But he has explosive traits that lead to consistent disruption, and he has plenty of experience as a stack linebacker."

Walker recorded three sacks and eight tackles against Texas after Reid wrote that. We think Walker could have a similar role to Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons.
