Leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, we will track where Texas Longhorns cornerback Jahdae Barron appears in the latest NFL mock drafts.

Jahdae Barron NFL Mock Drafts

Here are some of the latest mock drafts in which Barron has appeared:

CBS Sports — Josh Edwards

No. 23 overall — Green Bay Packers

The expectation is that Jaire Alexander is not a part of next season's roster. If Carrington Valentine is starting in one of those boundary spots, then the Packers can plug and play Jahdae Barron in the slot.

NFL.com — Bucky Brooks

No. 23 overall — Green Bay Packers

This could help the Packers move on from Jaire Alexander and others in the secondary. Barron's versatility would make it easy for defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley to carve out a role for the Texas product as a rookie.

The Athletic — Baumgardner/Dochterman

No. 30 overall — Buffalo Bills

Barron has positional flexibility in the secondary, because of his coverage skills and hitting prowess — he could play corner, nickel or safety. He earned the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back and tied for the SEC lead with five interceptions. Anywhere he plays, Barron would elevate the Buffalo secondary.

EDSFootball — Kevin Hanson

No. 19 overall — Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Barron is a versatile defensive back with experience at nickelback and outside corner, a reliable tackler in run support, and had five interceptions in 2024. He won the Jim Thorpe Award, which is given to the nation's best defensive back.

NFL.com — Daniel Jeremiah

No. 14 overall — Indianapolis Colts

I think you'll see the buzz around Barron continue to grow. He possesses great quickness, instincts and ball skills.
