Coming off of their first playoff victory in 26 years, the Cleveland Browns enter this postseason with a strong foundation. With nine picks in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Browns are now in the position of drafting to contend, not just compete.
The New England Patriots enter this draft in a truly unique situation. Like always, defense remains an area of solidification no matter how strong the unit is. However, they might need help at quarterback and wide receiver, too, though Bill Belichick would tell you that his signings of Cam Newton, Nelson Agholor, and Kendrick Bourne are sufficient.
We are almost there! The 2021 NFL Draft is three weeks away, and the excitement builds up more every day. With most of free agency behind us and the draft rumor mill picking up speed, Prime Time Sports Talk has put together their first group mock draft of the 2021 NFL Draft.
When the New York Jets traded Sam Darnold to the Carolina Panthers, it took the Panthers out of the quarterback draft market. It also guaranteed the first three picks of the 2021 NFL Draft are going to be quarterbacks. However, will the Atlanta Falcons select a quarterback with the fourth overall pick?
John Schneider and his front office staff in Seattle may have the most difficult job to pull off at this year’s draft. The Seahawks have just three picks in 2021.
The Arizona Cardinals have been aggressive this offseason, signing J.J. Watt and A.J. Green while trading for Rodney Hudson. However, the Cardinals still have several holes on the roster to fill in the draft. With only selections picks, including two in the top 150, the Cardinals will need to hit on all of their picks this year.
The Jacksonville Jaguars seemed destined for the second overall pick in the draft until the New York Jets won against Jalen Ramsey’s Los Angeles Rams. With that, the Jaguars received the top pick in the draft. With the top end of free agency coming to a close, the focus turns towards the NFL Draft, where the Jaguars have four picks in the top 50 selections.
Former quarterback turned all-star linebacker? That is Chazz Surratt’s story at the University of North Carolina. After playing quarterback for three years (starting one), he knew that his talents were best used elsewhere, especially with Sam Howell coming to save the day.
Jason Licht and The Tampa Bay Buccaneer brass have opted with the strategy to (for the most part) keep their championship-winning squad intact. It would be wise to start looking towards the future with some big names not getting any younger.
The San Francisco 49ers had a rough 2020 season, winning just six games. Their biggest free agent is Richard Sherman and they will have to attack the secondary in this upcoming draft. Just over a week ago now, the 49ers made a blockbuster trade-up to the third overall pick, which the whole world expects to be in order to take one of the top quarterbacks. Besides cornerback and quarterback, their next biggest need is offensive line help. They currently have three picks in the fifth round and one in each of the other rounds.
The Chicago Bears have been an emotional rollercoaster. The one position that is a major issue is the most important one: quarterback. With an elite defense, not even a mediocre quarterback could make a legitimate playoff run.
The Las Vegas Raiders had an up-and-down first season in Las Vegas. They were very busy during free agency, adding solid options on both sides of the ball. A successful draft will give Las Vegas a good chance of really improving in 2021. Shoring up the defense will likely be a main focus, so let’s dive into this seven-round mock draft.
