Back Shoulder Fade - 2021 1st round Mock

[SilentThreat]

Well, we're at that time of year unfortunately, where we start to look ahead. A heck of a season with a lot of hope really makes things interesting though!!!

Here's my first mock for the upcoming draft.



19. Washington - Christian Darrisaw - OT - Va Tech - 6'5" 315. Big body, local guy (Upper Marlboro Md). Came into his final season at Va Tech being known as a run blocker but has greatly improved his pass blocking. This dude could be the steal of the draft at 19 simply because he's in the same draft as Penei Sewell. He could be a top 10 pick in most drafts.

1​	Jacksonville	Trevor Lawrence - QB - Clemson
2​	NY Jets	Justin Fields - QB - Ohio State
3​	Miami (via Houston)	DeVonte Smith - WR - Alabama
4​	Atlanta	Zach Wilson - QB - BYU
5​	Cincinnati	Penei Sewell - LT - Oregon
6​	Philadelphia	Ja'Marr Chase - WR - LSU
7​	Detroit	Trey Lance - QB - North Dakota St
8​	Carolina	Gregory Rousseau - Edge - Miami (FLA)
9​	Denver	Micah Parsons - LB - PSU
10​	Dallas	Caleb Farley - CB - VA Tech
11​	NY Giants	Kyle Pitts - TE - FLA
12​	San Francisco	Kwity Paye - Edge - Michigan
13​	LA Chargers	Alex Leatherwood - OT - Alabama
14​	Minnesota	Patrick Jones II - Edge - Pittsburgh
15​	New England	Kyle Trask - QB - Florida
16​	Arizona	Patrick Surtain - CB - Alabama
17​	Las Vegas	Trevon Moehrig - S - TCU
18​	Miami	Rondale Moore - WR - Purdue
19​	Washington	Christian Darrisaw - OT - Va Tech
20​	Chicago	Rashod Bateman - WR - Minnesota
21​	Indianapolis	Mac Jones - QB - Alabama
22​	Tennessee	Joseph Ossai - Edge - Texas
23​	NYJ (via Seattle)	Jaycee Horn - CB - South Carolina
24​	Pittsburgh	Alija Vera-Tucker - C/G - USC
25​	Jacksonville (via LAR)	Derion Kendrick - CB - Clemson
26​	Cleveland	Joe Tryon - Edge - Washington
28​	Baltimore	Wyatt Davis - G - Ohio State
29​	New Orleans	Jaylen Waddle - WR - Alabama
27​	Tampa Bay	Christian Barmore - DL - Alabama

32​	Kansas City	Jayson Oweh - Edge - Penn State

*** I reserve the right to change this 1000 times before the draft ***

 

[Riggotoni]

I see the Jets will be wasting another first round pick on a QB bust.

 

[Solitary Man]

At least this mock has Devonta being the first wr going. Any mock that does not, is not valid.
Also, I have no problem if we draft a Left Tackle if the staff loves him.

The Jets decide when the draft really starts.

 

[SkinsOrlando]

The Jets will either take Sewell or Smith if they can't trade back, I just don't see them taking Fields with a new coach who'd be hedging his future on that persons success when there's so many other holes.

 

[Bulldog]

If you see Detroit taking Trey Lance, that means Matt Stafford will be on the move.

If I am Washington I am looking at that potential deal with the Lions.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Belichick and New England all over that either.

After seeing Brady take the Bucs to the NFC title game in 2020, Belichick at 70 I doubt is going to start over again with a 22 year old quarterback that will take 3-4 years to develop into a top flight passer.

 

[Boone]

Wildcard in any possible big name player acquisition - the WFT performance in 2021 and rise of some of our young talent.

In past seasons, it wouldn't matter what big-time free agents were out there, because there was no way in hell we were going to come out on top in a competition for them with top tier teams or teams in more desireable locations.

I think Washington went a long way in becoming a much more viable option for free agents with the respect that Rivera and Del Rio have as coaches, looking like we may be the up and coming team at the top of the NFC East for awhile, and having some young talented marquee (or near marquee) players like Young, McLaurin, Gibson, Curl, etc... and a well respected defense.

When I was compiling this mock it was with the notion that not only Detroit would be looking toward the future, but also Atlanta.

This is a VERY heavy QB first round... 6 going in the top 21 which is pretty crazy to actually think about.

If you see Detroit taking Trey Lance, that means Matt Stafford will be on the move.

If I am Washington I am looking at that potential deal with the Lions.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Belichick and New England all over that either.

After seeing Brady take the Bucs to the NFC title game in 2020, Belichick at 70 I doubt is going to start over again with a 22 year old quarterback that will take 3-4 years to develop into a top flight passer.

I would bet if you went and took a poll, you'd be very surprised how many players would opt to come HERE over NE, especially at QB. I don't think we're going to have to lean on the money in order to attract free agents.

I would also bet that Amari Cooper is sitting back questioning his choice to sign in Dallas over us, and wondering what if.
