Welcome to Craft of the Draft's second AFL Mock Draft for 2025, with a total of 23 selections made in our latest prediction of how the first round of this year's count might unfold.

Our second edition Mock Draft follows the draft order changes from the trade period, while trading picks has also become an option should any club wish to move their selections.

This exercise also looks to deviate from our first Mock Draft with alternative selections where we see fit, creating a chain reaction of changes to show the potential ripple effect of these alterations.

Mitch's Picks: West Coast, Essendon, Hawthorn, Sydney, GWS, Geelong, North Melbourne, Port Adelaide
Jonty's Picks: Richmond, Gold Coast, St Kilda, Carlton, Western Bulldogs, Fremantle, Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Collingwood

The 2025 Larke Medal winner has grown his game away from being just an inside midfield threat, having carved out a forward role at SANFL level with Central District.

Much like the selection of Cumming, pieces that can bolster the Bombers' midfield while also being able to play elsewhere will be attractive. Sharp is a predominant midfielder still, while Cumming would mostly sit forward, complementing one another.

The selection also sees the Dons opt for one of the best prospects available, with Sharp, as well as Cooper Duff-Tytler, both available and seen as potential selections for West Coast at Picks 1 and 2.
