2021 NFL Mock Draft: Justin Fields or Mac Jones at No. 3 overall?

The first non-quarterback off the board in our latest 2021 NFL Mock Draft is Penei Sewell, an outstanding offensive tackle from the University of Oregon. With the No. 4 overall pick, the Atlanta Falcons win the services of Sewell, who will be tasked with protecting the blindside of quarterback Matt Ryan.

Of course, the Falcons could go several different ways with this pick, as they may decide to bring in a successor to Ryan, or even trade down in the first round. However, if they stay at pick No. 4, Sewell would be an excellent addition to an offense that should be quite productive in 2021.

At pick No. 5, the Cincinnati Bengals are not able to get Penei Sewell, who went a selection earlier to the Atlanta Falcons. They could go with Kyle Pitts, a tremendous talent at tight end, but instead, they add a player who franchise quarterback Joe Burrow is certainly used to getting the ball to.

This selection is LSU star Ja’Marr Chase, who sat out the 2020 college football season, but the last time he was on the field, he and Burrow were leading the Tigers to a national title. The Bengals could certainly use that kind of success, and while it may be a long shot, this would be an outstanding get for Cincinnati.

With the No. 6 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins decide to pass on a wide receiver and instead bring in a player many consider a generational talent at tight end. Sure, picking at tight end this early is almost unprecedented, but Kyle Pitts is that special, and would be an excellent security blanket for Tua Tagovailoa.

The Dolphins are going to do everything they can to protect Tua this offseason, and in Pitts, they get one of the best playmakers this draft class has to offer. For Tua to reach his full potential, he needs as many weapons as possible, and Pitts in Miami would have star written all over him.
