Today marks exactly a month away from day one of the 2021 NFL Draft. This week, the NFL world was hit with two massive trades that re-shaped the landscape of the draft.
The NFL’s legal tampering period kicks off on Monday, meaning a plethora of free-agent signings will be finalized early in the week. Before the deals run rampant, let’s take a look at a two-round mock draft with four new trades sprinkled in.
With rumors of five quarterbacks being taken in the first 10 picks of the 2021 NFL draft, this list may be one of the biggest struggles for teams to figure out.
The Carolina Panthers are entering the second year of the Matt Rhule era. After a 5-11 record in 2020, Carolina earned the eighth pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
While most of the NFL world is all about Trey Lance, there is another prospect coming out from North Dakota State that is getting first round buzz.
In the 2019 season, Trey Lance threw for 28 touchdowns and zero interceptions while making some spectacular plays, which made him soar up draft boards for the 2021 draft. There are plays where Lance is lost, and the inexperienced and long release get to him. To add to the difficult evaluation, Lance only had one year as a full-time starter (and one game in 2020). He also played in a level of competition that was lower. The tools and intelligence of Lance are enticing, and he is comparable to Josh Allen. That is thanks to the development Lance will have to undergo before reaching his potential.
The 2020 NFL season is over. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are Super Bowl champions for the second time in team history. With that said, the NFL now turns to the offseason. In this mock, the trades of Deshaun Watson and Carson Wentz are held off until compensation details become more clear with the potential trades. This two-round mock features 13 trades, including three in the top ten.
One week closer to the NFL draft, and teams are starting to show their deficiencies. In this mock draft, there are new players as analysts now have an idea of the risers and fallers in this class. Overall, this draft is offensive heavy and has several first-rounders who will be instant starters. The weapons in this draft are dynamic and will change offenses for the better. Additionally, there are four quarterbacks now projected to be top ten selections. The order is based on the website Tankathon, which uses the strength of schedule (SOS) and up to date records to determine the draft order.
We are now at the halfway point of the NFL season. In just a couple of months, 14 teams will be playing in a fight for the Lombardi Trophy while the other 18 look ahead to the offseason. The holes of every team are getting more evident as the weeks move along and teams will be looking at the draft to build their team.
We are halfway through the 2020 NFL season. The draft order is starting to take shape, and teams are finally seeing all of their hard work either pay off or go down the drain. Some organizations are looking towards the draft to find new players, maybe even a quarterback and some teams are focused on the playoffs.
We are now almost halfway through the NFL season. In two short months, only 14 teams will be playing while the other 18 will be looking ahead to the offseason. The holes on each roster are becoming more obvious as time goes on, and while free agency can fill those voids, most teams look to build through the draft. The draft order for this mock was based on The Draft Network’s mock draft machine order. Let’s get it started.
