Without a plethora of great QBs atop the draft and a limited number of true blue-chip players, everything from about pick No. 6 to the Bears’ pick at No. 10 could be completely chaotic. What’s going to happen with Ashton Jeanty and Tyler Warren?

April 24, 8 p.m. ET • Rounds 2-3: April 25, 7 p.m. ET All rounds will be televised on ESPN/ABC and NFL Network and in Spanish on ESPN Deportes. The Bears had a massively disappointing 2024 season. Draft night turned out to be the high point of their year when they selected quarterback Caleb Williams and wide receiver Rome Odunze.

Schoonmaker appears to be on the fast-track to becoming another Cowboys early-round tight end draft bust, joining the likes of David LaFleur, Gavin Escobar and Anthony Fasano, all of whom were selected in the first two rounds and none of whom got even close to the 1,000-yard receiving mark (total) with Dallas.

The 2025 NFL Draft is finally here with the opening round kicking off from Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Thursday night. Each of the last two years have involved Dallas making first-round picks for need with defensive tackle Mazi Smith (26th overall in 2023) and offensive tackle Tyler Guyton (29th overall in 2024).

Longtime franchise owner Jerry Jones doesn't mind declaring where he believes the Dallas Cowboys stand, a truth at most any point in the NFL calendar.
