Abdul Carter could join a select group of Penn State legends at the 2025 NFL draft. Carter, Penn State’s star defensive end, has a very real chance of going No. 1 overall when the draft kicks off on April 24.

Although the NFL Draft is two months away, anticipation is already beginning to build about how the first few picks will shake out, including where Penn State defensive end Abdul Carter may end up. For further context,

Penn State pass rusher Abdul Carter is in contention for the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft, and he has garnered a lofty player comparison as a result. The 6-foot-3, 259-pound EDGE put together a unanimous All-American season with the Nittany Lions as a junior, leading the nation in tackles for loss (24) with 12 sacks.

During an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show," NFL draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah called Abdul Carter the best player in April's NFL draft:

Penn State had eight players selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, a class that was headlined by Olu Fashanu going 13th overall to the New York Jets. While the Nittany Lions may not reach that number again in 2025, they do have a deep collection of talent off to the next level, including five players projected to be picked in the seven-round draft.
