2021 NFL Mock Draft: Trevor Lawrence heads to Jacksonville
By Brad Weiss
The New Orleans Saints are one of the best teams in football once again, and they seem to be on a course to get to the NFC title game. On defense, they have a few issues, and one glaring one is at linebacker, so at pick No. 29, they add a first round talent in Dylan Moses who can play sideline-to-sideline.
The Buffalo Bills are legit, and if Josh Allen continues to trend in this direction, they are going to be a powerhouse in the AFC for quite some time. On defense, they should look to add a corner via the 2021 NFL Draft, bringing in Asante Samuel Jr. to team with Tre’Davious White, giving them a dominant young tandem for years to come.
The Green Bay Packers are the favorites to get to the Super Bowl out of the NFC, as quarterback Aaron Rodgers is playing at an MVP level. If they get there, they will pick very late in round one, and with this selection, Derion Kendrick is added to give their secondary the depth that they are lacking.
New year, same story, as the Kansas City Chiefs are the elite team in the NFL once again. Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback in football, and needs to be protected at all costs, so the Chiefs close out the first round of our mock by bringing in a versatile offensive lineman in Creed Humphrey from Oklahoma.
