Saints Take Quarterback Ian Book
With the 133rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Saints have finally addressed their quarterback position, grabbing Notre Dame passer Ian Book. With all-time great quarterback Drew Brees retiring, there are lots of questions about what the post-Brees era looks like. The expectation is Jameis Winston starts in 2021, but there's no guarantee that […]

With the 131st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Baltimore Ravens have selected Oklahoma State wide receiver Tylan Wallace.

With the 129th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have selected North Texas wide receiver Jaelon Darden. One of the most intriguing players in this draft, Darden was a monster for the Mean Green, catching 74 passes last year for 1,190 yards and 19 touchdowns, setting a school record for receiving […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoColts Select Tight End Kylen Granson
With the 127th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts have selected SMU tight end Kylen Granson. A surprising pick this early, Granson led SMU in receiving touchdowns last season and was a productive receiver in college, though he played at the Group of Five level. He's a little undersized for an NFL […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPanthers Draft Chuba Hubbard
With the 126th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers have selected Oklahoma State running back Chuba Hubbard. Considered a top running back prospect at one point, Hubbard saw a huge drop in yards per carry last year from 6.4 down to 4.7. That hurt his draft stock, and he fell to the […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoWashington Takes Tight End John Bates
With the 124th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Washington Football Team has drafted Boise State tight end John Bates. Bates had 12 catches for 117 yards in five games last season. He was a strong blocker for Boise State but never showed much consistency as a pass-catcher, never catching more than 22 passes […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPatriots Draft Running Back Rhamondre Stevenson
With the 120th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the New England Patriots have selected Oklahoma running back Rhamondre Stevenson. Stevenson had 665 rushing yards last year but missed the first five games of the season due to suspension. He's agile despite being a bigger back and has some appeal as a pass-catching back as […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoVikings Grab Running Back Kene Nwangwu
With the 119th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings have selected Iowa State running back Kene Nwangwu. In four years in Ames, Nwangwu totaled 744 rushing yards and four touchdowns with just seven receptions. It's a bit of a puzzling pick for the Vikings, who have a solid running back room already […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoLions Draft Amon-Ra St. Brown
With the 112th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions have selected USC wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. Detroit's receiving unit will look a lot different in 2021 with the departure of Kenny Golladay and Marvin Jones Jr., so there's definitely room for St. Brown to get some snaps behind Breshad Perriman and […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoTitans Draft Dez Fitzpatrick
With the 109th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans have selected Louisville wide receiver Dez Fitzpatrick. At this point in the draft, players aren't usually expected to step in and play immediately, but that could change in Tennessee. Right now, the top receivers beyond A.J. Brown are Josh Reynolds and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoJets Select Michael Carter
With the 107th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the New York Jets have addressed their running back need by taking North Carolina's Michael Carter. Heading into the draft, the Jets running back room consisted of Lamical Perine, Ty Johnson, Tevin Coleman, and Josh Adams, so there's some clear space for Carter to get onto […]

The 2021 NFL Draft started on Thursday night and, just like we all expected for months (years?), Trevor Lawrence was the first overall pick. And after that, the draft didn't really get as wild as many expected it would be, though there were still some surprises. We're through one round of the draft now, which […]
Justin Carter 4 years ago49ers Draft Trey Sermon
The San Francisco 49ers have used the No. 89 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft on Ohio State running back Trey Sermon. This is a nice landing spot for Sermon, as head coach Kyle Shanahan has shown he wants to run the ball in San Fran, and the addition of quarterback Trey Lance should help […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoDolphins Draft Hunter Long
With the 81st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins have selected Boston College tight end Hunter Long. Long had 57 catches for 685 yards and five touchdowns last season and was one of the top receiving tight ends in college football. But the Dolphins already have Mike Gesicki at tight end, making […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoChargers Draft Josh Palmer
With the 77th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Chargers have drafted Tennessee wide receiver Josh Palmer. Palmer never had a huge season for the Volunteers, topping out at 484 yards in 2018 and four touchdowns last season, but he showed promise as a deep threat in Knoxville. He's shown some improvement […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoTexans Draft Quarterback Davis Mills
The Houston Texans have used the 67th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft on Stanford quarterback Davis Mills. This was Houston's first pick of this year's draft, so it's telling about the future of Deshaun Watson in Houston that the team started out by going QB. Mills didn't start a lot of games in college, […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoChiefs Select Center Creed Humphrey
With the 63rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs have selected Oklahoma center Creed Humphrey. Humphrey didn't allow a sack last season and joins a Chiefs team that has spent the entire offseason rebuilding the offensive line in an attempt to protect quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Humphrey is a strong pass blocker […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPanthers Take Terrace Marshall Jr.
With the 59th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers have selected LSU wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. A big outside receiver who had 48 catches for 731 yards last year and who has 23 touchdown receptions over the past two seasons, Marshall offers the Panthers a nice complement to D.J. Moore and […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoTutu Atwell Drafted By Rams
With the 57th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams have drafted Louisville wide receiver Tutu Atwell. As a junior, Atwell had 69 catches for 1,272 yards and 11 touchdowns. The biggest knock against Atwell is his size, as he's just over 150 pounds. But he's an incredibly fast receiver who can […]

The Seattle Seahawks have drafted Western Michigan wide receiver D'Wayne Eskridge with the 56th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. Eskridge played five years at WMU, with his best season coming as a senior.

With the 55th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers have selected Penn State tight end Pat Freiermuth. Pittsburgh entered this draft with some big offensive line needs, but went skill position with their first two picks.

Justin Carter 4 years agoTitans Select Tackle Dillon Radunz
With the 53rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans have selected North Dakota State offensive tackle Dillon Radunz. Coming from the FCS level, Radunz will have a lot of work to do to adjust to the size of NFL pass rushers, but he's a tough player who should be able to crack […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoWashington Selects Tackle Sam Cosmi
With the 51st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Washington Football Team has drafted Texas offensive tackle Sam Cosmi. Washington still hasn't addressed their quarterback position, so for now, it looks like Cosmi will be pass blocking for veteran QB Ryan Fitzpatrick in 2021. Cosmi has all the physical tools needed to be a […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoCardinals Draft Rondale Moore
With the 49th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Arizona Cardinals have selected Purdue wide receiver Rondale Moore. Moore's an explosive receiver who can make big plays with the ball in his hands.

Justin Carter 4 years agoJaguars Draft Tackle Walker Little
With the 45th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars have selected Stanford tackle Walker Little. A highly-touted prospect out of high school, injury and opt out have essentially sidelined him for the past two seasons. He'll have to readjust to playing football, but if Little is healthy, he projects to be a […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoMiami Dolphins Draft Liam Eichenberg
With the 42nd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins have selected Notre Dame offensive tackle Liam Eichenberg. Tackle is a definite position of need for the Dolphins, who passed on taking one of the elite ones in the first round but who grab a guy who was a solid protector for the […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoEagles Select Center Landon Dickerson
With the 37th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles have drafted Alabama center Landon Dickerson. The Eagles had the second-worst adjusted sack rate in the NFL last season, so adding to the line should help keep quarterback Jalen Hurts safe, allowing him to form a connection with first-round wide receiver DeVonta Smith. […]

With the 35th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos have taken North Carolina running back Javonte Williams.

Justin Carter 4 years agoJags Take Tyson Campbell At 33
The Jacksonville Jaguars have used the 33rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft on Georgia defensive back Tyson Campbell. It seems like an odd pick for a Jaguars team that didn't seem to have the biggest need at corner. Campbell had just one interception in college and will need to figure out some things in […]
