Abdul Carter might be the best pass rusher in the 2025 NFL Draft, and that means the Penn State star should not have to wait long to hear his name in tonight’s first round. And when that call comes, Carter will be the latest in an impressive line of Penn State defenders to enter the league.

Abdul Carter, the former Penn State star and Philadelphia native, is one of the top prospects in the 2025 NFL draft.

Carter, the No. 2 overall prospect in the 2025 class by B/R's NFL scouting department, has drawn comparisons to future Hall of Famer Von Miller. He was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year last season with 24 tackles for loss and 12 sacks in 16 games.
