2021 NFL Mock Draft: Six quarterbacks go in the first round
By Brad Weiss
The Green Bay Packers are many peoples’ favorites for being the NFC representative in the Super Bowl, and rightfully so, as Aaron Rodgers is playing at an MVP level. He is doing it without having many weapons in the passing game, so at pick No. 29, they bring in Minnesota’s Rashod Bateman to team with Davante Adams.
The Kansas City Chiefs found a way to come out on top this past weekend, although they were given everything the Denver Broncos had in a come-from-behind victory. Patrick Mahomes is an absolute freak, and picking late in round one, which is going to be a theme as long as he is the quarterback, they bring in another weapon for him in the passing game in Rondale Moore.
The New Orleans Saints took care of business against division rival Atlanta this past weekend, as Taysom Hill continues to win as the team’s starting quarterback. With this pick, late in the first round in 2021, they need to address the other side of the ball, and if linebacker is still an issue, Dylan Moses fixes that problem in a hurry.
The final undefeated team fell on Monday night, as the Pittsburgh Steelers were shocked by the Washington Football Team. The Steelers have issues on offense right now, and should use this final pick in the first round on an offensive tackle, bringing in Liam Eichenberg to be a franchise left tackle down the road.
