2021 NFL Mock Draft: Miami Dolphins protect Tua Tagovailoa
By Brad Weiss
There are a lot of things that need to be worked on this offseason when it comes to the Washington Redskins, but quarterback is one area they need to address first. The Dwayne Haskins experiment has definitely run its course for the Football Team, which means they could be in the market for a first round quarterback this April.
In terms of the position group, there are three players who are guaranteed to go in the first round, and with Lawrence and Fields off the board, Washington adds Trey Lance. Lance is another prospect who is exciting due to the fact he can make plays with his arm, and his feet, and the Football Team needs to hit the reset button at the position.
The Los Angeles Chargers suffered another devastating loss this past weekend, this time at the hands of division rival Denver. Leading for most of the game, the Chargers saw Drew Lock lead his team down the field late, throwing a touchdown pass with no time remaining, and sending the Chargers to their fifth loss in Justin Herbert’s first six starts.
In Herbert, the Chargers have found their franchise quarterback, and now they need to do everything they can to keep him upright. Alex Leatherwood from Alabama is an outstanding young offensive lineman, one who is versatile and could be a building block in front of Herbert for years to come.
In what has been a very disappointing season for the New England Patriots so far, it is clear that the loss of Tom Brady has been tough for this franchise. Not only did Brady jump ship, but a lot of the Patriots starters decided to sit this season out, and the result has been a 2-5 record, and currently a top-10 pick for Bill Belichick and company.
With this pick, I like the Patriots to address their defense, getting a talented linebacker in Dylan Moses. Belichick is a defensive genius, and Moses is one of the better talents on defense in this draft class, making this is a perfect fit in New England.
