2021 Draft Discussion - Bolts Pick 13th

[Topcat]

We can only dream some team picks a BYU QB in the top 5 and trades picks to us to do it.

This is quite a possible scenario...think of all the GM's in the hot seat...a trade-up for someone like Wilson in the top 5-6 could help those GM's keep their jobs...

[Topcat]

You mean like this? This would never happen though because this sites rankings are whack lol....and the trade down wouldnt give me enough so also unrealistic...but hey, id take all this draft of OL. Slator at 40, and have him as a OG?

Not bad, Jolt! Like the bookend tackles and double dip...I would prefer an edge rusher a bit earlier, though...big PON...

Here's what I had in mind:

my draft 2.0.JPG

I like Wyatt Davis a lot for IOL. Not sure he can transition to Center or if he is a true OG. But if you do not get a chance for Sewell - I would prefer OT but if you can get an OG like Martin or Nelson - sign me up today. Just a plug and play right away - thats fine with me. A guy like Leatherwood at the top of R2. This would mean a trade back as I doubt Wyatt Davis goes as high as Quenton Nelson but if the pick warrants, why not.

Okay, Jolt, I took some of your best ideas, combined them with my mock, but moved the Edge up a bit with Ojulari, (the extra trade down pick) because I think it's a more urgent PON...we still have those bookend tackles in Darrishaw and Slater, got some cover corners in Molden and Thomas, a center in Johnson, (projected comp pick for Rivers) a coverage LB with Gaoteote and even our change of pace RB bruiser in Sermon. Smith gives us another Edge rusher in the rotation, and Mathis gives us a stout run defender in IDL...The addition of those cover corners and the coverage LB should set up our D to play Tampa-2, especially on passing downs, or maybe even most of the time...

LOL, well bravo. I cant do that shit to mine.
I really like CB TJ Carter that you had in your last one....as i did
. He is a good press CB. Rated low in these simulators and he went to Memphis, a small school but a 5th rounder....i like it for one CB for us.

Gus says we dont have good man CBs and why he dont blitz. But hell he will be gone anyways lol.

2021 NFL Mock Draft: Dolphins pick Devonta Smith, Steelers select future franchise quarterback Kyle Trask

The Dolphins get Tua a familiar face, while the Steelers get their quarterback of the future




By Chris Trapasso
4 hrs ago1 min read



And while the Steelers are still a legitimate contender, it's clear they need to think ahead at the quarterback position. Florida's Kyle Trask would be a smart option late in Round 1 to sit behind Ben Roethlisberger before taking over. We've got breakdowns for those picks and more in our mock today. The draft order is based on the team record, strength of schedule and the subsequent tiebreakers as things stand heading into Week 15.
NFL Mock Draft

Round 1

Round 1 - Pick 1 Trevor Lawrence QB Clemson • Jr • 6'6" / 220 lbs Projected Team N.Y. Jets PROSPECT RNK 1st POSITION RNK 1st Did the Jets hit a new low on Sunday? They lost 40-3 to the Seahawks, and Jamal Adams had a game. Only three more outings until they lock in Lawrence for 2021. Although I doubt anyone on that team wants to be a part of 0-16.

Round 1 - Pick 2 Justin Fields QB Ohio State • Jr • 6'3" / 228 lbs Projected Team Jacksonville PROSPECT RNK 5th POSITION RNK 2nd The Jaguars have played inspired football of late, but the Titans offensive line and Derrick Henry squashed that inspiration in Week 14. Fields in April is not far off for Jacksonville.

Round 1 - Pick 3 Penei Sewell OL Oregon • Jr • 6'6" / 330 lbs Projected Team Cincinnati PROSPECT RNK 2nd POSITION RNK 1st This is as slam dunk of a selection as the first three. With some quality weapons on offense, Burrow could take a large step in Year 2 with Sewell protecting his blindside.

Round 1 - Pick 4 Samuel Cosmi OL Texas • Jr • 6'7" / 309 lbs Projected Team L.A. Chargers PROSPECT RNK 13th POSITION RNK 1st Cosmi has impeccable pass-blocking balance and quick feet. He just needed to get stronger in 2020. And he demonstrated more power on the field this year.

Round 1 - Pick 5 Patrick Surtain II CB Alabama • Jr • 6'2" / 203 lbs Projected Team Dallas PROSPECT RNK 12th POSITION RNK 2nd The Cowboys have to add more talent to the secondary and Surtain is one of the safer cornerback prospects in the class.

Round 1 - Pick 6 Trey Lance QB NFL Draft • Soph • 6'4" / 226 lbs Projected Team Carolina PROSPECT RNK 11th POSITION RNK 3rd Let's see how a mock unfolds if Lance, not Zach Wilson, is the third quarterback off the board. Lance would sit for a year behind Teddy Bridgewater before taking over. He has elite quarterback skills, but the rest of his game is raw right now.

Round 1 - Pick 7 Caleb Farley CB Virginia Tech • Jr • 6'2" / 207 lbs Projected Team Atlanta PROSPECT RNK POSITION RNK Even though the Falcons went with A.J. Terrell in Round 1 in 2020 -- and he's played well -- Atlanta still has a need at cornerback. Farley is tall and athletic and blessed with the football IQ that allows him to get his hands on the football often.

From Houston Texans Round 1 - Pick 8 Devonta Smith WR Alabama • Jr • 6'1" / 175 lbs Projected Team Miami PROSPECT RNK 7th POSITION RNK 2nd This man deserves to be the first receiver off the board, just based on how awesome of a career he's had at Alabama and the show he's put on this season. The Dolphins would be the team pick Smith over Ja'Marr Chase given Tua Tagovailoa's familiarity with him.

Round 1 - Pick 9 Ja'Marr Chase WR LSU • Jr • 6'1" / 200 lbs Projected Team Philadelphia PROSPECT RNK 5th POSITION RNK 1st The Eagles waste no time with this one. With Chase and Jalen Reagor -- let's not write him off yet -- Philadelphia will have two young, explosive, polished receivers for Jalen Hurts.

Round 1 - Pick 10 Kwity Paye DL Michigan • Sr • 6'4" / 272 lbs Projected Team N.Y. Giants PROSPECT RNK 6th POSITION RNK 1st Are the Giants going to sign Leonard Williams to a long-term deal? Even if they do, the club could use more juice at the edge-rusher spot. Paye will bring that.

Round 1 - Pick 11 Micah Parsons LB Penn State • Jr • 6'3" / 244 lbs Projected Team Detroit PROSPECT RNK 3rd POSITION RNK 1st The Lions could go in 1,000 different directions with this pick but ultimately decide on the best player available at a non-QB position. Parsons would help reinvigorate the defense.

Round 1 - Pick 12 Zach Wilson QB BYU • Jr • 6'3" / 210 lbs Projected Team San Francisco PROSPECT RNK 13th POSITION RNK 4th This is a nightmare development for the rest of the NFC West. Wilson and Kyle Shanahan together. Oh my.

Round 1 - Pick 13 Jaelan Phillips DL Miami (FL) • Jr • 6'5" / 266 lbs Projected Team Denver PROSPECT RNK POSITION RNK Even if the Broncos re-sign Von Miller after his season-ending injury before Week 1, the club should plan for the future on the defensive line. Phillips has All-Pro abilities.

Round 1 - Pick 14 Gregory Rousseau EDGE Miami (FL) • Soph • 6'7" / 265 lbs Projected Team Minnesota PROSPECT RNK 14th POSITION RNK 1st The Vikings will gladly take a physical specimen on the defensive front who just needs some refinement to blossom into a superstar.

Round 1 - Pick 15 Rashawn Slater OL Northwestern • Jr • 6'3" / 305 lbs Projected Team Chicago PROSPECT RNK 15th POSITION RNK 2nd No quarterback here for Chicago -- instead, the Bears build the offensive line with Slater, a technician at tackle or guard.

I am not sure if Cosmi is a reach but I like the pick of OT.
