Travis Hunter: 2025 NFL project research report, rankings

While there are more debates on Colorado’s position Travis Hunter will play first – a wide receiver or corner corner – cannot be denied that one of the top prospects in 2025 NFL project. The winner of the reign Heisman trophy had 96 catches for 1,258 meters per crime, as well as four interceptions in defense, this season last.

But how does Hunter settle against the rest of class 2025? He was listed as a defensive at the NFL combination, but does it make more sense for him to play the next level?

Mel Kiper Jr. project experts, Matt Miller, Steve Muench from Scouts Inc.Jordan Reid and Field Yates offers their research reports:

Kiper: No. 1 generally

Hunter had a great sensation for the game on offense and defense, and he played a number of 1,458 catches on 13 games this season. I really think he has the chance to have an impact on both sides of the ball at the beginning of his professional career, although he classifies him as a receiver right now. The offensive and defensive coordinators for the team who eventually draft them will fight to use it.

Hunter has an extraordinary hand coordination and elite ball skills. His physical features and speed are outside the graphs, but the Heisman winner also thinks of playing at a high level. It is an extremely competitive perspective, which works hard to maximize its potential.

Miller: No. 2 in general

Depending on the NFL score you ask, Hunter can play either a wide receiver or a corner corner in professionals (or maybe both). An executor from a NFL team told me that his franchise sees Hunter as a corner defender, who could play a handful of offensive snapshots and I think many other teams agree with this thinking. Several scouts have noticed that finding an elite defender is harder than finding an elite receiver and this pushes teams to prefer the two -way star to start in defense.

But … I list Hunter at the receiver. There will be a transitional period in any of the positions; You will have to work on the discipline of the routes at large. Agility, speed, hardness and insurance are of all-pro quality. Despite the fact that it was not a quarter, Hunter could be at stake for the first general choice.

Reid: No. 1 in general

The combination of Hunter of natural instincts, ball skills and positional flexibility is why he is the top player on my board. He was probably better at the corner, where he equalized for the second in Big 12 in interceptions. His ability to play both modes has caused comparisons with the Hall of Famers Bailey and Charles Woodson champion. Hunter could be the first corner that was written number 1 or the first receptor selected with that choice from Keyshawn Johnson in 1996.

Hunter is a fundamental press corner, which puts your hand on the receptors, runs well and turns on time to locate the ball. Read the quarter and follow the ball in the appearance of the area. Hunter has a player’s instincts and ball skills. He projects best at the corner, but if Hunter plays offenses, he has the tools to quickly turn into a receiver no. 2. He goes down the line well, has the additional equipment to stretch the field and has a catch ray to win 50-50 balls down. He has the explosion to threaten after the capture.

Yates: no. 1 in general

One of the most unique perspectives I have ever seen, Hunter has a rare versatility and a legitimate look to be a top player as a wide receiver or corner. His ball skills are remarkable; He is a real offense player, and his instincts give him a ability to block defense. I am sure he will have the opportunity to contribute on both sides of the ball in professionals in a certain capacity, but I ranked it first as a corner defender at this time. He finished season 2024 with 36 approaches and 10 defense crossings.
