Several former Clemson football standouts will be waiting anxiously to hear their names called Thursday night as the 2025 NFL Draft kicks off. Trenton Simpson was selected in 2023, but 2025 could prove to be a make-or-break season for the Baltimore Raven.

National Average Rating
The National Average Rating is a proprietary formula that calculates an
industry-wide aggregate rating for each recruiting prospect. The formula includes
publicly listed grades, scores, ratings and rankings by national recruiting services,
along with a Clemson Sports Talk rating. Combining the data provides a rating for each prospect,
which is then normalized to fit the Clemson Sports Talk Rating 100-point scale.
The intent of this rating is to provide Clemson Sports Talk readers with a comprehensive snapshot of
how individual prospects rank nationally.
