Happy Draft Day everyone! After many months of speculation, mock drafts, trades, and smoke screens, we finally get to see what players land on what teams. Enjoy this mock and hopefully enjoy who your team takes tonight.
The NFL Draft is finally here, even though it feels like NFL Draft season all year. For the second year in a row, draft meetings and film room sessions were all virtual. Although there will be fans and the picks will be televised somewhere other than Rodger Goodell’s basement, there is still that interesting dynamic between the teams and the players.
David Moore had scouts drooling when he dominated at the Senior Bowl back in January. Those in attendance saw a massive interior offensive lineman who can thrive in both pass protection and the running game from guard or center. Moore is raw and inexperienced, but his core traits and obvious upside make him a potential steal in the middle rounds of the 2021 NFL draft.
This tight end class is topped with some amazing young talent. Among true Juniors like Kyle Pitts, Pat Freiermuth, and Brevin Jordan there is Redshirt Sophomore Tommy Tremble. Following in the footsteps of “Mapletron” Chase Claypool is no easy task. There is a lot that comes with the title of tight end at Notre Dame. Tremble has been labeled as the best blocking tight end in this class. At his size, hopefully, he can receive the ball as well. Is Tremble just a blocking tight end? Let’s find out.
In a star-studded cornerback class with Jaycee Horn, Patrick Surtain, and Caleb Farley, Paulson Adebo is an underrated name that could be up there with the best of the best. Before opting out in 2020, Adebo had some serious first-round draft talk during last year’s offseason.
Stanford’s star receiver in the 2020-21 season, Simi Fehoko will likely hear his name called during the 2021 NFL Draft. Fehoko is an athletic receiver with a lot of potential due to his athleticism. Let’s break down his skillset.
Choosing to opt-out of the 2020 college football season after appearing in just three games for Mississippi State, Kylin Hill will look to join a large number of former Bulldogs in the NFL.
Perhaps one of the biggest draft sleepers, Jacob Harris has significant size and speed. At 6’5” with a monstrous wingspan he has the tools to become a great receiver in the league.
Derrick Barnes kept teams guessing during a college career where he played multiple roles at Purdue. That same versatility will make Barnes a valuable Day 3 pick in the 2021 NFL draft. His ability to play both inside and outside linebacker and rush off the edge will surely earn him some interest. The team that takes a chance will get a flexible playmaker who knows how to wreck both phases of an offense.
The 2021 NFL Draft class lacks the star power the previous class had. However, one name not getting enough attention is Virginia Tech’s Khalil Herbert.
The NFL is big on players that have versatility. The safety class has a lot of players that are in this mold. One player not getting enough attention in this class is San Diego State’s Tariq Thompson. He was a four-year starter at his time at San Diego State and specialized in the Warrior position that SDSU employs. Thompson is a very versatile prospect that excels in his IQ and continuous turnover production.
Alex Leatherwood is an extremely experienced offensive lineman who has been at the forefront of some controversy this draft cycle. The debate on him is whether or not he should be making a switch from guard to tackle once in the NFL.
