Alex Leatherwood. 11. player. 59. . Offensive Tackle. Miami Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins will hold two first round picks in the 2021 NFL Draft, as they continue to build up this roster with young talent. While the Dolphins did add an offensive tackle in Austin Jackson in 2020, they should look to continue to add to the position group next April, selecting Alex Leatherwood from Alabama.

To be honest, this was a kid that I thought could have gone in the first round in 2020 had he come out, as he is that talented. The Dolphins got this pick from the Houston Texans for Laremy Tunsil, and with the selection, they get what could be their starting left tackle for the foreseeable future.

Dylan Moses. 12. player. 28. . Linebacker. Las Vegas Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders held on to both of their first round picks on Thursday, adding the speedy Henry Ruggs III to the wideout group at pick No. 12, and then grabbing Ohio State cornerback Damon Arnette at No. 19. With their first round pick in 2021, the Silver and Black add Ruggs’ Alabama teammate, Dylan Moses, as Mike Mayock continues to bring in guys from big-time schools.

Had it not been for a devastating knee injury, Moses would have been a first round guy in 2020, and he falls into the Raiders lap here. Sure, they added talent at linebacker in free agency this offseason, but Moses is the kind of long-term solution at the position who could wear the green dot for the next five-to-ten years.
