Scouting Report. QB. Ohio State. 10. player. Pick Analysis. Justin Fields. 57

Chicago Bears’ projected win total: 7.4
Justin Fields 2019 stats: 67.2% completion percentage for 3,273 yards, 41 touchdowns and 3 interceptions through the air. 137 carries for 484 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground.

The fall of Justin Fields ends when the Chicago Bears scoop him up with the 10th overall pick in this mock draft. Fields is widely considered to be one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2021 NFL Draft class and could easily end up going with one of the first two or three picks.

However, he is not a perfect prospect, and honestly, there simply are not many teams picking early in this mock draft that needed a franchise quarterback. Fields falling down the board a bit should not be surprised if you look at this 2021 NFL Draft order.

Fields is an extremely exciting quarterback prospect who shows more than enough arm to hit any throw on the football field. He also shows incredible natural pocket presence and is extremely mobile inside and outside of the pocket. Fields feels pressure well and has the natural athleticism to get away from pressure and make plays down the field.

Fields will impress with touch throws all over the field. He has a knack for dropping the ball in a bucket and shows strong overall accuracy to all fields. That being said, he does tend to miss open receivers a bit too often. He just does not seem to see the entire field particularly well.

While he is not a perfect player, Fields is undoubtedly an incredibly talented quarterback who has massive upside at the next level. He is one of the most naturally talented prospects in the 2021 NFL Draft class and would undoubtedly inject some much-needed excitement into the Chicago Bears offense. Could Fields be the franchise quarterback that the Bears were hoping Mitchell Trubisky would become?
