2021 NFL Mock Draft: Bears surprise with Mac Jones, Cowboys nab Caleb Farley

Despite adding Trai Turner via trade this offseason, the Chargers offensive line remains an issue. Young Justin Herbert has shined since being thrust into the starting quarterback job but some better protection could make him more dangerous. Creed Humphrey and the Oklahoma O-line haven’t been as good as expected this season but the Sooners center still projects as a high-end asset for an NFL line, especially with a team like LA that could desperately use his services.

Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock upgraded at linebacker via free agency this past offseason but the defense remains an issue still. Secondary help is a need but, given the brass’s affinity for pedigree, they go with Alabama linebacker Dylan Moses here at No. 14.

Moses missed all of last year with an ACL injury but has returned as the quarterback of the Crimson Tide defense. HIs blend of skill and football IQ make him an elite prospect who could anchor the Raiders defense.

Through only two games, Florida tight end Kyle Pitts already has six touchdowns on the year. He’s a matchup nightmare with a blend of size, speed and polish for the position.

The Panthers have performed much better than expected through four games, sitting at 2-2 on the year. They may well give Teddy Bridgewater more time at quarterback, which opens them up to get the signal-caller another high-quality option in the passing attack.

Injuries have derailed the 49ers’ quest to make it back to the Super Bowl this season, even if they’ve still fought hard. But what has come to light is just how badly San Francisco needs secondary depth, particularly with young players like Shaun Wade that can help for the future.

The Ohio State standout has the build of an outside corner but has performed well in the slot for the Buckeyes, which makes him an intriguing evaluation with extremely high upside due to his potential versatility.
