We have an entire season to go before we start talking about Notre Dame players being taken in the 2025 NFL draft. However, that won’t stop some folks from projecting who could be going where anyway.
Bleacher Report has started a weekly series of articles in which it will go over each NFL team’s weaknesses and how they could address those weaknesses after the upcoming season. Already, we have a Notre Dame player on the list.
Irish tight end [autotag]Mitchell Evans[/autotag] is projected by most outlets to be picked somewhere at or near the middle of the 2025 draft. Bleacher Report has identified him as shoring up the Kansas Chiefs at his position with Travis Kelce not getting any younger and no sure thing waiting in the wings.
Here’s why the Chiefs could tab Evans to be Patrick Mahomes’ next big tight end target according to the article:
“Mitchell Evans has to prove he can come back from a torn ACL he suffered last season. But he has made some ridiculous grabs in his college career and has the ability to make defenders miss.”
We’ll see what happens with Evans this year, but he surely would take coming into as good a position as anyone in the NFL after he turns professional.
