The 2025 NFL Draft will be here sooner rather than later, and we want to ensure that Vikings fans are the best in the world when it comes to knowing their opponents. To achieve that, we will publish an NFC North mock draft every Friday until draft week.
We plan to show you, the fans, what teams in the NFC North will be working with regarding draft fits, targets, and draft pick placement.
The Bears have the most needs of anyone in the division, but outside of them, most teams are pretty complete. The Lions have some depth issues to address, the Packers have some needs on defense, and the Vikings don’t have many needs but free agency could change that.
Here is our fifth NFC North mock draft of the 2025 NFL Draft cycle, enjoy.
