Victory Bowl IV: First Mock Draft Board Revealed
Written by Coach C – SemiPro GameDay
The wait is over. The first look at the Victory Bowl IV Mock Draft Board has been released, and it’s already sparking conversations across the semi-pro football world. This year’s class is stacked from top to bottom, featuring explosive quarterbacks, dominant athletes, and electrifying playmakers who are destined to leave their mark on the biggest stage in the Nation.
⭐️The Headliners
At the top of the board sits Aason Cross, a dual-threat quarterback standing 6’0” and 180 pounds. Known for his ability to extend plays and create chaos for defenses, Cross sets the tone as the No. 1 overall prospect.
Right behind him is Garrett Griffith, the polished pocket-passer who commands the huddle with poise and precision. If you want a signal caller who can sling it with NFL-style mechanics, Griffith is your man.
Rounding out the top three is Shaq Minnis, a 6’2”, 283-pound edge rusher who embodies the word “balanced.” His combination of size, strength, and athleticism makes him a nightmare for offensive linemen. Simply put: Minnis changes games.
💪🏾The Playmakers
No draft board is complete without the athletes who turn the tide with one touch of the football. Daniel Knighten (ATH) at No. 4 is an all-purpose weapon who can impact the game in multiple ways.
At No. 5, Dylan Chinn, the deep-threat wide receiver from Tulsa, brings size (6’3”, 215 lbs) and big-play ability that has already earned him star recognition across the CMFL.
Speedster Charles West checks in at No. 6, proving that at 5’10” and 190 pounds, explosiveness matters just as much as size. West is a touchdown machine who can score from anywhere on the field.
Meanwhile, Demorris Coleman (WR) and Malcom Johnson Jr. (WR) at Nos. 7 and 8 represent two more nightmare matchups for defensive backs—true deep threats with the ability to blow the top off a defense. Johnson in particular is also a huge weapon in the return game, so this may be too low for a player like him.
👑Defense & Versatility
Defense makes its presence felt with Antwan Baker at No. 9, a 6’0” cornerback built for man-to-man coverage. His physical style and football IQ make him one of the top shutdown prospects on the board.
Rounding out the top ten is Spensirr Howard, an all-purpose athlete who can line up virtually anywhere and still find a way to make plays.
🎥The Bigger Picture
What stands out most from this first mock draft is the balance. Quarterbacks, wide receivers, athletes, and defenders are all represented—painting the picture of a Victory Bowl IV Draft that will be as unpredictable as it is exciting. I have a feeling this may be the year an offensive lineman cracks the top 10, maybe top 5. The talent is that good this season. These are the prospects who will define the future, and come October, their names may very well echo in Victory Bowl history.
One thing is clear: the 2025 Victory Bowl Draft class is LOADED. And if this early board is any indication, we’re about to witness one of the most competitive and talent-rich drafts the event has ever seen.
