Even with professional days ending soon and the free 2021 agency far beyond your childhood, it seems that the twists and turns that will hit us on the road to Cleveland will be endless. The 49ers blockbuster to move up to third place overall shook the NFL scene. The dolphins then traded back in what was a shocking frenzy. So, in this NFL Simulated Draft of 4 rounds of 2021, I’ll do my best to predict the crazy world of NFL Draft.

2021 – 4 rounds of the NFL Mock Draft | First round
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
I refuse to bore you with a long explanation for this one. It is blocked in stone. Unless a meteorite hits Earth between now and the NFL Draft, this is what will happen. Trevor Lawrence it will be a Jacksonville Jaguar.
2. New York Jets: Zach Wilson, QB, BYU
I want to believe Sam Darnold. I understand that his situation was terrible. However, it is precisely for this reason that I am unable to take the train to continue with it. Its potential is in relative outbreaks, and the flashes are not enough. He was really bad.

As such, Zach Wilson it’s the natural fit here. The reports are spinning that Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh love Wilson, and it’s easy to see why. The show he performed at BYU Pro Day with off-platform moves was undeniable. In this 2021 NFL Mock Draft of 2021, the Jets cannot pass on a potential quarterback of the franchise. They kick-start the future of the Meadowlands franchise.
3. San Francisco 49ers (via MIA): Trey Lance, QB, North Dakota State
It is a little difficult to get into the head of John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan. The switch to No. 3 is obviously for a quarterback. Let’s be realistic here – Jimmy Garoppolo is someone who needs the perfect environment around him to win a Super Bowl. The buzz at Justin Fields is decreasing.
After Trey Lance’s for the day, your hype is high. His natural talent in the arm, surprisingly good mental process and skill outside the structure make him a striking. In Shanahan’s scheme, the adjustment makes a lot of sense to me. So I think Lance lands in the bay area.
4. Atlanta Falcons: Justin Fields, QB, Ohio
The apple does not fall far from the tree, however. And you read it well. There are four surprising quarterbacks in the first four choices. In this 2021 4-round NFL Mock Draft, this happens for the first time in NFL history. Well, I suppose the Falcons could trade outside this location, but they’ve been chasing a quarterback throughout the process.
They fell in love with Lance, and if they did, it would be no surprise to see them love Justin Fields. Matt Ryan’s recent restructuring makes it a little bit darker. On the other hand, Falcons have a clear interest in a quarterback and it would be the smart way to go. With Fields on the board especially, I don’t see how Falcons can let this go. Fields may not play in 2021, but he may well be the future in Atlanta.
5. Cincinnati Bengals: Penei Sewell, OT, Oregon
This is the dream scenario for Cincinnati. Clearly, they have an obvious hole in the right attack. Joe Burrow is begging for protection after his injury in the 2020 season. The Bengals have yet to address that point at the free agency. Penei Sewell it has many advantages and is already advanced in technique. They run this card as fast as they can until the podium.
6. Miami Dolphins (via PHI): DeVonta Smith, WR, Alabama
Okay, let’s start with this one. I scoffed DeVonta Smith for Dolphins before because I love that setting. They need a guy who can break up easily. Will Fuller gives them more speed. Simultaneously, Smith can open the middle of the field and give Your Tagovailoa an open target to shoot with consistency.
It helps that Tony Pauline has noticed that the Dolphins are skeptical about opt-out, thus decreasing the chances of this being Ja’Marr Chase.
7. Detroit Lions: Ja’Marr Chase, WR, LSU
The Lions are a difficult team to define in this Simulated Draft of 4 rounds of 2021 of the NFL. The wide receiver room at Motor City needs an update, and Ja’Marr Chase is sitting right there to be taken. They have experience with a receiver like Chase, due to the recent passage by Kenny Golladay, who left for the Giants.
The question obviously will be how much of Chase’s game can Jared Goff extract. This remains to be seen, but there is a clear plan for using Chase in Detroit.
8. Carolina Panthers: Kyle Pitts, TE, Florida
Dude, there’s an obvious need for a quarterback for the Panthers, but they have no one to meet that need. Mac Jones looks like too much sideways movement. As such, they only carry weapons. Kyle Pitts gives them an aberration in the tight end position.
The solution in the long-term position, Pitts can open a game with just its combination of height, weight and speed. He can stay in line and block right on top of that. Panthers have a great player and value here.
9. Minnesota Vikings (trade designed with Denver Broncos): Rashawn Slater, OT, Northwestern
Exchange! The Vikings swap picks 14, 78, 143 and a 2022 second round pick for the Broncos for pick 9.
Vikings are getting aggressive here. They have had problems in their offensive line for years. At the moment, there seems to be an obvious hole in the left tackle. To protect Kirk Cousins at a higher level, the Vikings ensure that they overtake their opponents to put their guy Rashawn Slater.
Slater’s athletic ability and excellent balance make him stable in the tackle, despite his less than ideal length. Improving in the trenches was very important for Minnesota, and they do it here.
10. Dallas Cowboys: Jaycee Horn, CB, South Carolina
It was no secret that Jaycee Horn he was climbing the boards and was a choice among the top 10 before his professional day. So, after emphatically lighting it, it’s hard not to potentially see it the first cornerback off the board.
I like the fit for him in Dallas more than someone like Patrick Surtain II’s fit. Horn must adapt more naturally to Dan Quinn’s scheme. Your joy will help to add an advantage that Dallas doesn’t have either.
11. New York Giants: Gregory Rousseau, EDGE, Miami
With the holes in the wide receiver and cornerback filled to a good extent, the Giants still have a great need for passes in the front. The interior is solid, but they can use the threat of the length outside the edge. Gregory Rousseau give them just that. He’s raw, yes, but Rousseau has the physical tools to be a perfect player, if it works. Dave Gettleman bets on this positive side with this selection.
12. Philadelphia Eagles (via SF): Jaylen Waddle, WR, Alabama
Trading back and still getting Jaylen Waddle? Eagles may have to pinch themselves in this scenario because there may not be a better scenario for green and white.
Waddle changes the game on many levels. He has the ability to change the way defenses throw cover with his game-breaking speed. This will help Jalen Reagor on the other side much more as a threat as well. Jalen Hurts obtains some much-needed weapons as a result of this scenario.
13. Los Angeles Chargers: Christian Darrisaw, OT, Virginia Tech
There is not much explanation needed here. Just take a look at the coping situation Justin Herbert is dealing with. Chargers need to protect their franchise quarterback. Fortunately for them, Christian Darrisaw is the perfect guy to do that.
With great athleticism in his size and overall growth in each of his consecutive seasons as a starter, Darrisaw has the ability to be a special talent in Los Angeles.
14. Denver Broncos (trade designed with Minnesota Vikings): Azeez Ojulari, EDGE, Georgia
This is ideal for the Broncos right now. They come back to acquire more withdrawal capital and enter a range more suitable for someone they are looking for right now. Von Miller is a question mark, but the Broncos seem interested in a fair amount of edge rushers.
Azeez Ojulari it’s a match made in heaven here. It can move in space, has the explosiveness necessary to threaten the guys at the edges, and continues to increase its arsenal in a number of ways.
15. New England Patriots: Mac Jones, QB, Alabama
The Patriots attacked the off-season as if it were nobody’s business. However, the quarterback’s position is still a question mark. Cam Newton is back, but it is not a certainty for anything in the future. So with Mac Jones still on the board and waiting there in this 4 rounds 2021 NFL Mock Draft, Bill Belichick goes for a familiar style of quarterback with Jones.
The surroundings where Jones will enter New England are ideal for his success. He has a good set of weapons and the offensive line is strong and cohesive.
16. Arizona Cardinals: Patrick Surtain II, CB, Alabama
Another guy from Alabama off the board just like that. Patrick Surtain II experienced a small mini-fall here without any guilt. He killed the draft process, and the tape is ideal for a guy with length and instincts.
In this 2021 NFL 4-round Draft Mock, Surtain helps fill a huge gap for the Cardinals. They badly needed a cornerback in front of Byron Murphy, and his physicality and length is something they could barely use.
