2021 NFL Mock Draft: Texans trade Deshaun Watson to Panthers, land Justin Fields

Speaking of needing offensive line help, the Los Angeles Chargers are clearly in the same boat. It’s been a struggle for the franchise for the past few years and, now that they have found their long-term quarterback in Justin Herbert, it remains a viable concern. The tackles are particularly rough but could use assistance on the interior as well. That’s why Rashawn Slater is the perfect fit at No. 13.

Slater could come to Los Angeles and start at tackle or guard right away. He’s agile enough to move in any way necessary and strong enough to own in the power game as well. Perhaps no one in college football in 2019 played Chase Young better than Slater, which speaks to his ability. Thus, he could be a protector for Herbert for the Bolts — and one who will be around for the long haul.

For many years under head coach Mike Zimmer, the Minnesota Vikings defense was something that you didn’t need to worry about; they were always going to be one of the best units in the league. Things have changed over the past couple of seasons, though, and now they need some help. That should start with replenishing the talent pool on the defensive line.

Kwity Paye is a natural fit for the Vikings as a base defensive end. Though he’s not an elite athlete who will win with speed, his natural ability to explode and win with power is obvious. Moreover, he’s still a bit raw and has room to grow as a technical rusher. Putting that type of player on this defense would be a coup for Minnesota and give them a new defensive toy to help recapture some lost quality on that side of the ball.
