    Xavier Watts comes into the 2025 NFL Draft as a safety prospect that is currently flying under the radar. Watts won the Bronko Nagurski Trophy in 2023 as the best collegiate defensive player and has been an All-American the past two years, yet he’s projected by most to fall past the first round. Even though he’s not projected to go in the first round, his accolades along with his quick development has the entire NFL interested with Xavier Watts’ draft profile.

    When is the 2025 NFL Draft?

    The 2025 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday, April 24, beginning at 8 p.m. ET. The draft will take place in Green Bay, WI, which brings plenty of potential challenges. Only Round 1 will take place on Thursday. Rounds 2-3 will take place on April 25th, with the remaining four rounds wrapping up on Sunday, April 26th. There will be 257 players selected across the seven rounds, with many more getting phone calls immediately afterward.

    Xavier Watts Scouting Report

    Strengths

    Out of all the defensive players in this draft class, it is not an overstatement to say that Watts may have the best ball skills. He has shown incredible production at Notre Dame, with 13 interceptions over the last two years. Watts has some experience playing in the slot and has fantastic awareness and recognition of plays and their development. He is seemingly always in the right spot on passing plays and is very opportunistic.

    Weaknesses

    For as good a ball hawk as Watts is, he may be equally as bad at tackling. His pursuit angles are often way off, and he too often lets the ball carrier beat him to the outside when he inevitably tries to take too sharp of an angle. His tackling is also a problem even when he’s in the right position, as he has missed 13 tackles each of the last two seasons. For Watts to thrive in the NFL, he needs to improve a lot at tackling. He should also be paired with a safety who can help in run defense.
