2021 NFL Mock Draft: Zach Wilson goes top-5 to Washington, Falcons land Trey Lance
By Randy Gurzi
Zach Wilson lands in the top-5 in our latest 2021 NFL Mock Draft
Thanksgiving is behind us as we are now in Week 12 of the 2020 NFL season, which is something we all knew could be in doubt. With the world around us full of uncertainty, we knew the sport we love would have to be able to adapt to some curveballs.
That’s continued to happen as there have been several games rescheduled due to outbreaks, something we saw in Week 12 as the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers Thanksgiving night game was moved.
As for the collegiate world, there have been plenty of cancellations as well. On top of that, some players are beginning to opt-out of the remainder of the season with an eye on preparing for the 2021 NFL Draft. Speaking of that draft, we again look ahead to the biggest event in the offseason with this first-round 2021 NFL Mock Draft, which sees Zach Wilson creep into the top-5.
As a side note, the order of this draft is determined by our latest Spin Zone NFL Power Rankings, which has the New York Jets on the clock with pick No. 1.
New 2021 NFL mock draft at Week 12 of the season.
Scouting Report. Trevor Lawrence. QB. Clemson. 1. player. 30. Pick Analysis
The New York Jets are an absolute dumpster fire and right now, there are serious concerns that Trevor Lawrence could decide to stay at the collegiate level for another season if they secure the No. 1 pick. The only problem with that theory is that they could very well hold the No. 1 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. They’re that bad.
If there is any good news, it’s that they have two picks in this first round and a couple more in 2022 thanks to the Jamal Adams trade. There’s also another third-rounder this season. So, the Jets can start to improve if they hit on their selections, and Lawrence would surely be a hit.
QB. Ohio State. 2. 52. Scouting Report. Justin Fields. player. Pick Analysis
The Ohio State Buckeyes stayed undefeated but had one of their worst games of the season against Indiana. Justin Fields had several turnovers, which was uncharacteristic. Even so, this won’t hurt his stock.
This kid is the real deal and the Jacksonville Jaguars need a superstar of his caliber
to showcase when they move to London
if they are ever going to improve.
