Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels will be well-represented in the 2025 NFL Draft with near double-digit members of the 2024 roster expected to hear their names called.

ESPN's Matt Miller recently revealed a full 2025 Mock Draft with nine Rebels listed.

It all starts with quarterback Jaxson Dart with the Ole Miss signal-caller continuing to gain buzz as a first-round selection.

“95%,” Miller said of Dart’s first round probability. “I'm with Jordan and Field. I think it's really likely Dart goes in Round 1. In my talks with scouts this past week, the expectation is that his pre-draft process has been too successful for him to get past the first 32 picks.

"The three teams Field mentioned -- the Steelers, Saints and Rams -- are all obvious fits for his services. The only thing that would prevent him from getting picked in Round 1 is if Sanders fell to Pittsburgh at pick No. 21 overall, which in turn could push Dart down the board. But I really don't see that happening.”

Aside from Dart, there are multiple Rebels that landed on the full Mock Draft.
