The first round is in the books and we are ready for Rounds 2 and 3. Here we have a 2021 NFL Mock Draft that covers all the day two picks.

There were plenty of surprises during the first day of the 2021 NFL Draft which only makes us that much more excited for the second day.

Friday night in Cleveland, Ohio is where the league will be once again as the second and third rounds unfold.

Here, we dive right in and predict what will happen with this Day 2 2021 NFL Mock Draft — starting out with the Jacksonville Jaguars at No. 33.

33. Jacksonville Jaguars: Teven Jenkins, OT, Oklahoma State

After adding Trevor Lawrence and Travis Etienne, it’s tempting to take more players from Clemson. But instead, we go with Teven Jenkins, the Oklahoma State offensive tackle who probably should have been taken in Round 1.

34. New York Jets: Elijah Moore, WR, Ole Miss

Zach Wilson needs as many weapons as he can get and the Jets get him an explosive one here in Elijah Moore from Ole Miss.

35. Atlanta Falcons: Azeez Ojulari, EDGE, Georgia

Azeez Ojulari seemed destined for the first round but the Georgia product slides into Round 2. He now joins the Atlanta Falcons, so he won’t have to travel too far from Athens.

36. Miami Dolphins (via Houston Texans): Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, LB, Notre Dame

Perhaps the versatility of Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah hurt him as the Notre Dame product doesn’t really have a true position in the NFL. Still, Brian Flores can get the most out of him.

37. Philadelphia Eagles: Kelvin Joseph, CB, Kentucky

After getting DeVonta Smith in Round 1, the Eagles now need to focus on the secondary which is why they take Kentucky’s Kelvin Joseph at No. 37.

38. Cincinnati Bengals: Samuel Cosmi, OT, Texas

I absolutely loved the Bengals taking Ja’Marr Chase and while that opinion isn’t the popular one, the Bengals can at least quiet some of the criticism with the selection of Samuel Cosmi at 38.

39. Carolina Panthers: Trevon Moehrig, S, TCU

Matt Rhule and company keep drafting defense. This time, their pick is Trevon Moehrig, who can be a stud.

40. Denver Broncos: Landon Dickerson, IOL, Alabama

Teddy Bridgewater could be the starter but the Broncos need to make sure he’s comfortable in the pocket. For that reason, they take Landon Dickerson from Alabama here.

41. Detroit Lions: Terrace Marshall, Jr., WR, LSU

The Detroit Lions could use some wide receiver help after they lost Kenny Golladay and Marvin Jones, Jr. in free agency this offseason. They were expected to do so in the first but when Penei Sewell fell to them, they elected to wait and that pays off with Terrace Marshall, Jr. still available.

42. New York Giants: Liam Eichenberg, OT, Notre Dame

For whatever reason, the New York Giants have been awful when it comes to addressing their offensive line. They have put a lot of capital into the position but still need help. They continue to try here as they take Notre Dame’s Liam Eichenberg.

43. San Francisco 49ers: Tyson Campbell, CB, Georgia

Eric Stokes made it into the first round mostly because he blew people away with his workouts. However, his teammate Tyson Campbell is arguably the better player. The 49ers are willing to give him a spot on their roster to prove as much.

44. Dallas Cowboys: Jevon Holland, S, Oregon

Yes, Micah Parsons is good but the Dallas Cowboys didn’t address any of their major needs by drafting him. The good news is, they can still find some talented players in the coming rounds — such as Jevon Holland from Oregon.

45. Jacksonville Jaguars (via Minnesota Vikings): Pat Freiermuth, TE, Penn State

The plan is simple in Jacksonville — get help for Trevor Lawrence. Pat Freiermuth offers a huge target provided he can beat out Tim Tebow for the tight end job.

46. New England Patriots: Rondale Moore, WR, Purdue

New England continues to load up offensive talent with Rondale Moore — a big play waiting to happen.

47. Los Angeles Chargers: Nick Bolton, LB, Missouri

Missouri linebacker Nick Bolton is a stud but is undersized for the position. That won’t bother the Chargers one bit as they get a great player here.

48. Las Vegas Raiders: Christian Barmore, DT, Alabama

Las Vegas takes another player from Alabama and no one is shocked. The good news is, this one is a solid value selection.

49. Arizona Cardinals: Wyatt Davis, IOL, Ohio State

An interior offensive lineman can sometimes be a quarterback’s best friend as they keep the interior pass rush at bay. With the Cardinals playing in the same division as Aaron Donald, they can always use more help there, which is what leads to them taking Wyatt Davis here.

50. Miami Dolphins: Javonte Williams, RB, North Carolina

Back on the clock, the Miami Dolphins pick up a running back who can move the chains in Javonte Williams. The North Carolina product can do it all and could really add a new dimension to the Miami offense.

51. Washington Football Team: Jalen Mayfield, OT, Michigan

The Football Team has to protect Ryan Fitzpatrick which is why Jalen Mayfield is the pick. He can develop into a starting offensive tackle rather quickly.

52. Chicago Bears: Asante Samuel, Jr., CB, Florida State

This draft has several players who are related to former NFL stars. Here is another as the Bears take Asante Samuel, Jr. Slightly undersized, Samuel has all the confidence in the world and a nose for the ball. He will be a great addition to a team that already hit a home run with the Justin Fields move.

53. Tennessee Titans: Dyami Brown, WR, North Carolina

Another North Carolina player is taken as the Titans grab Dyami Brown. He’s a deep threat who can really help them replace Corey Davis and could end up being just as dangerous.

54. Indianapolis Colts: Amari Rodgers, WR, Clemson

They would have liked to have taken Dyami Brown but the Colts instead take Amari Rodgers. He can also get it done as a player opposite T.Y. Hilton and Michael Pittman.

55. Pittsburgh Steelers: Levi Onwuzurike, IDL, Washington

Pittsburgh is very experienced on the front line, which means they can use some youth. Enter Levi Onwuzurike from Washington who has a lot of potential.

56. Seattle Seahawks: Ronnie Perkins, EDGE, Oklahoma

The Seattle Seahawks are on the clock for the first time in the 2021 NFL Draft and they take Ronnie Perkins at No. 56. They had signed Aldon Smith as a potential stop-gap EDGE rusher but he found himself in hot water and now, they just go out and grab a young player who can handle the job.

57. Los Angeles Rams: Creed Humphrey, IOL, Oklahoma

Another team that can use some help on their offensive line is the Los Angeles Rams. Oklahoma center Creed Humphrey should be a day one starter and improve the line with his intelligence and dependability.

58. Kansas City Chiefs (via Baltimore Ravens): Tylan Wallace, WR, Oklahoma State

Sammy Watkins is gone and while he never lived up to the hype in Kansas City, they do need a new wide receiver. Tylan Wallace is a player who might not jump off the film but he does a lot of things the right way.

59. Cleveland Browns: Joseph Ossai, EDGE, Texas

Greg Newsome shored up the secondary and now the Browns add Joseph Ossai. He would be behind Takk McKinley and Jadeveon Clowney but they’re both on one-year deals so he could be the future across from Myles Garrett.

60. New Orleans Saints: Aaron Robinson, CB, UCF

They need a cornerback and after reaching for Payton Turner in Round 1, the Saints go for a better value pick in Round 2 with Aaron Robinson from UCF.

61. Buffalo Bills: Elijah Molden, CB, Washington

Whether he plays safety or cornerback, Elijah Molden has a nose for the ball and Sean McDermott will find a way to get the most out of his talent.

62. Green Bay Packers: Baron Browning, LB, Ohio State

Christian Kirksey didn’t pan out, so the Packers need another linebacker. They also need more help for Aaron Rodgers but with their star quarterback already mad at the team and not wanting to come back, might as well just drive the nail into the coffin and prove to him you will never, ever get him the help he deserves.

63. Kansas City Chiefs: Jabril Cox, LB, LSU

Jabril Cox is a little old for a rookie but he blew up the Senior Bowl. The Chiefs could use him to replace Damien Wilson in their linebacking corps.

64. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Dillon Radunz, OT, North Dakota State

The Bucs need a new offensive tackle and Dillon Radunz is a very intriguing prospect. He needs to prove he can do it against better talent but there’s a lot to like about his game.

65. Jacksonville Jaguars: Ifeatu Melifonwu, CB, Syracuse

Syracuse defensive back Ifeatu Melifonwu could be a steal, especially this late.

66. Minnesota Vikings (via New York Jets): Daviyon Nixon, IDL, Iowa

They need more beef on the D-line and the Vikings get that in Daviyon Nixon.

67. Houston Texans: Carlos Basham, Jr., EDGE, Wake Forest

Carlos Basham should be able to replace Whitney Mercilus in a year or two.

68. Atlanta Falcons: James Hudson, OT, Cincinnati

Matt Ryan isn’t getting any younger, so the Falcons need their line to get better.

69. Cincinnati Bengals: Paulson Adebo, CB, Stanford

Cincy picks up Paulson Adebo who could have really climbed draft boards had he played in 2020 and shown he made progress. As it stands, he’s an unknown with great upside.

70. Philadelphia Eagles: Tommy Tremble, TE, Notre Dame

Zach Ertz might not be around much longer, so Tommy Tremble is there waiting in the wings. He’s also apparently great at rock, paper, scissors which is a huge plus.

71. Denver Broncos: Olaijah Griffin, CB, USC

They used to be the no-fly zone. Maybe one day they can get back to that.

72. Detroit Lions: Jordan Smith, EDGE, UAB

A bit of a sleeper, Jordan Smith could develop into something.

73. Carolina Panthers: Brevin Jordan, TE, Miami

Sam Darnold needs weapons to succeed. Hopefully, the Panthers get that because the Jets did not.

74. Washington Football Team (via San Francisco 49ers): Andre Cisco, S, Syracuse

If he can stay healthy, Andre Cisco could be a stellar safety.

75. Dallas Cowboys: Tommy Togiai, IDL, Ohio State

Trysten Hill has yet to prove he can get it done, so Dallas takes Tommy Togiai.

76. New York Giants: Chazz Surratt, LB, North Carolina

A former safety, Chazz Surratt could be a great addition in a pass-happy NFC East.

77. Los Angeles Chargers: Milton Williams, DT, Louisiana Tech

He needs time to develop but Milton Williams is a player to watch.

78. Minnesota Vikings: Richie Grant, S, UCF

They lost Anthony Harris, but Richie Grant could be a starter one day.

79. Las Vegas Raiders (via Arizona Cardinals): Nico Collins, WR, Michigan

A big-bidied receiver, Nico Collins’ only knock (according to the Raiders) is that he didn’t play at Alabama or Clemson.

80. Las Vegas Raiders: Jamar Johnson, S, Indiana

A fast-climbing safety prospect, Jamar Johnson from Indiana joins Vegas who has two picks in a row.

81. Miami Dolphins: Jackson Carman, OT, Clemson

Miami picks up Jackson Carman who might need to slide inside at the next level.

82. Washington Football Team: Quinn Meinerz, IOL, Wisconsin-Whitewater

A developmental prospect, Quinn Meinerz could become a long-term starter if his pro team is patient.

83. Chicago Bears: Josh Myers, IOL, Ohio State

Josh Myers is a good prospect inside, and the Bears need someone to protect Justin Fields. Myers has a history of doing just that.

84. Dallas Cowboys (via Philadelphia Eagles through Indianapolis Colts): Trill Williams, CB, Syracuse

Another Syracuse defensive back is picked here as the Cowboys use their selection from the Philly trade to land Trill Williams. He could end up being a contributor.

85. Tennessee Titans: Pete Werner, LB, Ohio State

Pete Werner is great in coverage and the Titans need a linebacker who can help slow down opposing tight ends.

86. Minnesota Vikings (via New York Jets through Seattle Seahawks): Robert Rochell, CB, Central Arkansas

A small-school kid with big upside, Robert Rochell lands with the Vikings at 86.

87. Pittsburgh Steelers: Victor Dimukeje, EDGE, Duke

Bud Dupree left and while Alex Highsmith could be even better, the Steelers need some depth. Enter Victor Dimukeje.

88. Detroit Lions (via Los Angeles Rams): Hamsah Nasirildeen, S, Florida State

Hamsah Nasirildeen is a tall safety who knows how to find the football. Dan Campbell will love that.

89. Cleveland Browns: Marlon Tuipulotu, IDL, USC

They released Sheldon Richardson and Marlon Tuipulotu comes in and depth to help replace him.

90. Minnesota Vikings (via Baltimore Ravens): Dayo Odeyingbo, EDGE, Vanderbilt

Odeyingbo is big and can play anywhere on the line. He might be raw but he could become a force.

91. Cleveland Browns (via New Orleans Saints) Tutu Atwell, WR, Louisville

Cleveland finally drafts an offensive player as Tutu Atwell gets introduced to the host city. This kid can take the top off a defense, which they need.

92. Green Bay Packers: Amon-Ra St. Brown, WR, USC

Hey, finally a wide receiver. Still, too little too late to fix their relationship with A-Rod.

93. Buffalo Bills: Trey Smith, IOL, Tennessee

Trey Smith is a great pass protector. He just needs to stay healthy and he can be a force.

94. Baltimore Ravens (via Kansas City Chiefs): Keith Taylor, Jr., CB, Washington

Baltimore picks up Keith Taylor, Jr. as another Washington CB gets a shot in the NFL.

95. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Davis Mills, QB, Stanford

It looked for a while like Davis Mills would be a perfect fit for the Patriots, but instead he joins Tom Brady in Tampa.

96. New England Patriots: Jay Tufele, IDL, USC

Interior beef. Jay Tufele is a big defender who would be a great fit in New England.

97. Los Angeles Chargers: Spencer Brown, OT, Northern Iowa

Yes, they already drafted one offensive lineman but the Chargers need to do all they can to protect Justin Herbert.

98. New Orleans Saints: Shaun Wade, S, Ohio State

New Orleans loves Ohio State players. Shaun Wade could be good as long as they don’t play him as a boundary corner.

99. Dallas Cowboys: Janarius Robinson, EDGE, Florida State

Dallas needs edge depth and Janarius Robinson could be a solid find at 99.

100. Tennessee Titans: Quincy Roche, EDGE, Miami

At Temple, Quincy Roche looked like a star. If he can re-gain that form, look out.

101. Detroit Lions (via Los Angeles Rams): Deonte Brown, IOL, Alabama

They’ve already had a lot of picks and now add a second offensive lineman.

102. San Francisco 49ers: Dylan Moses, LB, Alabama

At one point, Dylan Moses looked like a Round 1 pick. Now, this feels like it could be too early.

103. Los Angeles Rams: Ar’Darius Washington, S, TCU

If he was three inches taller, Ar’Darius Washington would be a first-round pick.

104. Baltimore Ravens: Cameron McGrone, LB, Michigan

He was better in 2019 than 2020 but Baltimore knows how to get the most out of everyone — especially defenders/

105. New Orleans Saints: D’Wayne Eskridge, WR, Western Michigan

The third round ends with the Saints who finally get another wideout in D’Wayne Eskridge from Western Michigan.
