With the 2025 NFL draft officially in the books and 257 players selected, five of those selections were taken from UCLA. Although no one was drafted in the first round, two were taken in the second round, one was selected in the sixth, and two were drafted in the seventh. UCLA ranked tied for fifth with its draft picks and had more players drafted than USC, Michigan State, and Nebraska.
Here are the five former Bruins who will be taking their talents to the next level, as well as undrafted free agents who signed with a club after the draft.
Carson Schwesinger LB – 33rd overall, Cleveland Browns
