2021 NFL Draft: Trey Lance lands in top five of way-too-early mock draft
Seattle Seahawks’ projected win total: 8.8
With left tackle Duane Brown aging and right tackle Cedric Ogbuehi hitting free agency next offseason, offensive tackle stands out as a massive potential need for the Seattle Seahawks in the 2021 NFL Draft. Texas offensive Samuel Cosmi stands out as a major potential value selection in this range of the mock draft.
Cosmi is a quick and athletic offensive tackle prospect who moves in space well and mirrors opposing edge rushers extremely well. He has true franchise left tackle upside and would be a home run selection for the Seahawks.
Tennessee Titans’ projected win total: 9.2
Carlos Basham Jr. 2019 stats: 57 total tackles (18 for loss), 10 sacks, 3 passes defended and 3 forced fumbles.
Carlos Basham Jr. is not the quickest or most explosive edge rusher who will be in the 2021 NFL Draft class, but he is a powerful and crafty rusher who can put pressure on the quarterback. Basham shows a wide array of pass rush moves and has impressive power at the point of attack. He also sets the edge well and shows impressive overall on-field awareness.
The Tennessee Titans need to find some more long-term talent at the edge rusher position and Basham fits their style extremely well. He is a tough and stable 2021 NFL Draft prospect who could come in and be an immediate asset for this contending team.
