After a historic 2024 season, former Penn State tight end Tyler Warren is about to embark upon his NFL career, with the 6’6 winner of the John Mackey Award in 2024 being at or near the top of most NFL mock drafts right now after a redshirt senior campaign where he hauled in 104 catches for 1,233 yards and eight touchdowns. No wonder Penn State College Football Playoff Odds were alive until the very end.
At PennStakes.com, we developed odds projecting what NFL team will draft Penn State’s Tyler Warren. While you're here, bookmark our Eagles Super Bowl Odds page as well.
Team | Odds | Percent Change |
Indianapolis Colts | +200 | 33.3% |
New York Jets | +250 | 28.6% |
Los Angeles Chargers | +600 | 14.3% |
Carolina Panthers | +600 | 14.3% |
The Field | +950 | 9.5% |
In the latest ESPN.com mock draft from Field Yates, Warren is picked to go 14th overall to the Indianapolis Colts, who need a top tier tight end this season after failing to have a single player eclipse 500 receiving yards in a season since 2018.
While the Colts are our top landing spot for Warren’s services, at +200, there’s a solid shot that fellow AFC teams like the New York Jets (+250) and Los Angeles Chargers (+600) could land Warren in the first round of the draft, which kicks off from Lambeau Field in Green Bay on April 24.
The final team on our Warren odds board is the lowly Carolina Panthers, who are also listed at +600, though the NFC South squad picks directly behind the Jets in 2025 (at No. 8 overall), which could complicate their pursuit of the former Penn State star.
Luckily for whichever franchise lands him, Warren is the type of player that’s capable of doing just that, finishing his five years in Happy Valley with 153 catches, 1,839 yards and 25 touchdowns, establishing himself as one of the best pass-catching tight ends in modern college football history along the way.

Tyler Warren is the top tight end on many NFL Draft pundits' big boards. He's expected to go in the top half of the 2025 NFL Draft, possibly the only tight end taken in round 1 of this year's draft.
Currently Tyler Warren is projected to go to the Colts at 14th overall in the 2025 NFL Draft, according to the latest mock draft on NFL.com.
The Denver Broncos have a 14.3% chance of drafting Penn State TE Tyler Warren according to our own odds created here at PennStakes.com. Warren will either have to fall to the 20th overall pick or Denver will need to trade up if he's to be a Bronco in 2025 and beyond.
