The 2025 NFL Draft has come and gone, and a couple hundred players got to achieve their dreams by hearing their name called.

However, even more players went undrafted, and this year, there’s an especially talented crop of undrafted free agents. Whether it be due to injury, inconsistency, or off-field issues, there just aren’t enough spots for everybody.

Every year, though, several UDFAs make rosters and some of those players even play large roles. Last year, for example, linebacker Omar Speights and wide receiver Jalen Coker went undrafted and went on to play roles on the Los Angeles Rams and Carolina Panthers respectively.

Now, let’s identify one UDFA on each NFC team who has the best shot to make a roster in 2025.

Arizona Cardinals: Josh Fryar, OL, Ohio State

The Cardinals have not signed very many UDFAs at this point, so the pickings are slim.

However, Josh Fryar, an offensive lineman from Ohio State, seemingly has the best shot of making the team. The former Buckeye has the size teams want at tackle, and has experience at three positions.

Atlanta Falcons: Nick Nash, WR, San Jose State

Nick Nash definitely had the production to get drafted. The San Jose State product caught 104 passes for 1,382 yards and 16 touchdowns in 2024.

The Falcons aren’t exactly deep at receiver, and it’s not hard to imagine Nash beating out guys like Casey Washington, Chris Blair, and Dylan Drummond.

Carolina Panthers: Luke Kandra, OL, Cincinnati

Luke Kandra was a productive guard in the Big 12 and is another player who should’ve been drafted. The Panthers could use better depth on interior as well.

Kandra didn’t allow a sack in 2024 and earned a respectable 76.7 Pro Football Focus grade.

Chicago Bears: Power Echols, LB, North Carolina

Power Echols was extremely productive at North Carolina, racking up 100+ tackles twice and also having one interception in all four seasons.

The linebacker went undrafted due to being undersized. However, Ryan Poles has shown an affinity for athletic freaks who are solid with the fundamentals.

Dallas Cowboys: Traeshon Holden, WR, Oregon

Traeshon Holden is a big-bodied receiver who has big-game experience from the SEC and Big 10.

The Cowboys desperately need depth at receiver, and Holden could be a solid red-zone threat.

Detroit Lions: Jackson Meeks, WR, Syracuse

Jackson Meeks spent three years riding the bench at Georgia before transferring to Syracuse in 2024 and exploding for 78 catches and 1,021 yards.

Meeks is a solid route-runner who comes down with 50/50 balls and would be a nice compliment on the back-end of the Lions’ receiver room.

Green Bay Packers: Nazir Stackhouse, NT, Georgia

Nazir Stackhouse is a massive presence who dominated on the interior defensive line at Georgia.

The defender easily could’ve been drafted, and could carve out a role behind Kenny Clark in Green Bay due to his size and ability to clog run lanes.

Los Angeles Rams: Tru Edwards, WR, Louisiana Tech

Tru Edwards is another player who was frequently mocked as a late-round selection. The receiver led the CUSA in receptions in 2024 and has the speed and route-running to find a role.

In Los Angeles, the depth at receiver isn’t great, meaning Edwards could easily find a spot.

Minnesota Vikings: Logan Brown, OL, Kansas

Logan Brown is probably the best offensive lineman to go undrafted this year.

The Kansas product excels in pass-protection and run-blocking and didn’t allow a single sack or quarterback hit in 2024. This is the type of player who could develop into a starting-level talent.

New Orleans Saints: Marcus Yarns, RB, Delaware

Marcus Yarns is a player who should’ve been drafted due to his breakaway speed alone.

The Delaware product was one of the faster running backs in this class, and could fit in well behind Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller in New Orleans.

New York Giants: Antwane Wells Jr., WR, Ole Miss

If Antwane Wells Jr. would’ve produced in 2024 how he did in 2022, he easily would’ve been drafted.

The receiver battled multiple injuries in college, but is a former top recruit and transfer portal target. Wells, when healthy, has the speed and route-running to be on an NFL roster.

Philadelphia Eagles: Hollin Pierce, OL, Rutgers

Hollin Pierce was elite for Rutgers in 2024, earning an 85.1 Pro Football Focus grade.

The tackle has great size and strength but needs to refine his technique and footwork. If that happens, Pierce could develop on one of the best lines in the league.

San Francisco 49ers: Corey Kiner, RB, Cincinnati

It was surprising to see Corey Kiner go undrafted after racking up consecutive seasons of 1,000+ yards.

Still, Kiner landed in one of the best possible places as Kyle Shanahan loves his running backs. The Cincy product could carve out a role in this rotation.

Seattle Seahawks: A.J. Gillie, OL, Louisiana

The Seahawks definitely improved their offensive line, but it still needs work. Thus, A.J. Gillie could certainly earn a role on this unit.

The Louisiana product has a big frame that allows him to maul defenders as a run blocker. There’s a spot for a player like that in Seattle.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jake Majors, C, Texas

Jake Majors is another lineman that many expected to be drafted.

Majors anchored the Longhorns’ offensive line and has plenty of strength and big-game experience. The Texas product could be Graham Barton’s backup.

Washington Commanders: Robert McDaniel, S, Jackson State

Robert McDaniel was a hard-hitting, tackling machine in the FCS.

Now, the defender will try to earn a spot in a safety room that could use some depth. McDaniel could struggle in coverage, but his ability in run defense and on special teams could land him a spot.
